    Ma'am isn't "ageist" either...it's just polite.
    o_O I was raised such that NOT using "Sir" or "Ma'am" for an elder (especially a family member) was considered to be intentionally insulting; literally asking for trouble >_>

    Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks, I guess. I still use the terms, myself.

      Never bothered me to be called ma'am (although come to think of it, "babe" wouldn't bother me either! )

        Dear God, every time I see something like this on this site, it makes self-employment look better and better. Hope your boyfriend gets this stupidity sorted out.
