    This thread sort of reminds me of a saying I heard, "In New York, they say "F*** you" and mean "Have a nice day!" but in California, they say "Have a nice day!" and mean "F*** you".

    OK, so....don't leave me hanging. When I travel in the northern or western states, what is the term I should use if I don't have a name and am addressing a woman? Skimming this thread, it would appear that "Babe," "Honey," or "Woman" isn't likely to get me a positive response.


    I would use Sugar Tits... that is a for sure way to go...:bigsmile:

    Wow......I am SO getting enlightened here. It's like being introduced to a whole new world.


    Only trying to help

    And it is much appreciated! :

    I am originally from the north (Alaska), but have lived in the south for over 10 years and I will admit it does kind of make me feel weird if someone that is my age or older calls me ma'am. However, I understand and know that they are southern and that is just how they were taught. My boyfriend has lived in the south his entire life and he says yes ma'am, no ma'am, etc. too. I seriously wouldn't worry about it. If a person is too ignorant to realize that everyone in the south does this and it is in no way disrespectful then they need to get a clue.

    I like when someone calls me a woman. Means a lot. It's empowering to be called a woman instead of a girl. Women are stronger than the average girl in many ways.

    I have come to the conclusion that there is probably nothing a person could call the female version of the human species without the possibility of offending said female version.

    Being a man is so much easier sometimes. :tongue:
    Agreed.

    Where I'm from, when we say "Bless her heart," we mean, "Poor thing can't help she's a slut."

    I tried this last night... first with "Hey! Woman! Get over here!" when I didnt like the response from that, I tried a "Sugar tits", and "ay yo girl".. did not go well.

    I DID however learn what to call her. So for future reference, if a female cop pulls you over, you're not supposed to call her anything except "officer".

    I always found "Bless her heart" to quite derogatory, for that exact reason.

    That's really a hot button for me. Excuse me, I have a name! I used to have a male co-worker who would call me "woman" because he knew it would tick me off. Then he would change it to "Betty woman".

    "Woman" is not an insult. I am proud to be a woman! WOMEN ROCK!

    But don't call me "B****h". :noway: That word will then have a WHOLE new meaning by the time I'm through with you.

    ^THIS^
    My ex used to call me that & a few other choice names when he was pissed at me, then again, he was just an abusive ***hole too.
    So calling me that will have me "zero to B**** in 2.5 seconds!"
