Why Pick Just One?

Someone wrote…

Two parts sir, one part ma’am; otherwise known as “sir, ma’am, sir,” (say it quickly) which represents the rapid fire salutations I receive in public – no need to pick just one, I don’t.

What’s your experience?


And what are you thinking about gender right now?

    Good idea. I’m personally fond of “sirdame,” but I don’t think anyone not-in-the-know would get it, so sir ma’am sir is probably more accessible.

Can I show your picture? If you have a Gravatar associated with this email address, it will be displayed as your photo. If not, I'll just put a picture of a fork next to your comment. Everybody likes forks.

Be nice. Judgmental comments will be quietly deleted and blacklisted. There's plenty of room for those elsewhere on the web.
