Boy has this gotten offtopic...but it's more interesting than the thread title so no complaints here.
I've gotten "Ma'am'd"(my personal word for it) over the phone throughout my adult life. It used to irritate me lol...but I guess if I ever change sexes, I should just use the phone voice 24/7.
Lately I've been getting maam'd a lot in public, at stores and such. I wear male clothes but really long hair may have been the key factor. I'm not sure...anyways not long ago this one guy kept maaming me even after hearing my voice.
It was odd, because I hadn't shaved in a few days, and my voice isn't high enough to overlook the scruffy beard.
Whatever. I just went with it. It didn't upset me or make me happy, just didn't seem very important to me coming from a convience store clerk. I guess honestly I was a little more towards happy than upset though...if I had to pick.
Ah well there's my trivial story lol...there should really be a thread devoted to ma'aming.
