Good post.
Only being in my early 40's, I always call men "Sir", and women "M'am". I've had some women object to this, one even going so far as saying "What did you call me?", witha tone of indignation.
Still manage to take my cover off when enterting a building and wearing when outside. Habit, I suppose...

I've been pretty lucky, always had men open the door or carry heavy stuff, the usual things a gentlemen does. I very much appreciate the effort when a man does it knowing he took the risk of being cussed out by a rabid feminist.
I'm in my early 40's and have always said ma'am and sir to people I am talking with out of respect.
For you men, we ain't all against being treated like a woman. Don't give in to the feminists who don't speak for all women.
