    "Oh, hey! Riiiiick...shelle. Rachelle. Long time no see. How's everything goin for ya these days?"

    Yeah, grew up with Rick, and after he got out from the Marines, he became Rachelle. Wears makeup better than I do. Still don't know if he "went all the way" with the surgery though. And when I think about it, I don't want to know. He's still a cool.....gal.

    Meh. Don't know what to call him, except friend......

        Two things: One, how did anyone mistake YOU for a SIR!??!?!

        Two, has anyone ever told you you bear somewhat of a resemblance to Alyson Hannigan?

        And until someone comes up with a polite, gender-neutral singular form of address, we have no choice but say "sir" or "ma'am".
        "Yo!"

          I got it again yesterday. Must have just been a slip of the tongue, because I was helping him about ten minutes, and as he left he said- "Sir? Thankyou, you've been very helpful."

          For the record, I am here...

            There are most definitely three genders, and upwards of an infinite number more.
            According to an Anthropology prof last year, there's at least 7.

                I concur. Most un-Sir-like.

                  No idea. Even with the horrendous uniform on and my hair pulled back I'm not exactly masculine.

                    I've gotten "Ma'am"'d a few times. I mostly shrug it off.

                    I tend to keep nails fairly long (I've had women ask me how I keep them in such good condition!) and enjoy having my hair at about shoulder length.

                      So, tell, how DO you keep them in such good condition?

                        Ah well, some people can't be troubled to look beyond their own sphere and expect reality to adjust to suit them.

                          I got called sir the other day.

                          Now, I know I can seem rather androgynous, but that usually goes out the window when they see that I have boobs. Some people are dumb.
