It’s not only military people. Many people use that term. And when a child is ostracized for using it, it is disgusting and flat out wrong.

What's In A Title, Ma'am?

BRIG. GEN. MICHAEL WALSH: Ma'am, at the LACPR ...

SEN. BARBARA BOXER (D-CA): You know, do me a favor, could you say "senator" instead of "ma'am"?

Recall barbara boxer’s scolding of a Marine general who referred to her as ma’am.

I was raised in a military family, and we were required to address all adult females as Ma’am and all adult males as Sir.

And I still do to this day..
