What does it mean when a guy says "yes ma'am" to a girl (same age tho)?

[Fineasa]

[ChocoBrowny]

He has manners but i think you prefer it if he called you by your name?
I wonder how it's pronounced, more Fineesha? or Finish her?

[Gwenhwyfar]

[ChocoBrowny]

"Miss" and "Ma'am" (a contraction of 'Madame') are formal 'honorifics' not unlike "Master' for pre-pubescent boys and 'Mister' or 'Sir' or career-specifics like 'Dr', 'Col', 'Prof', 'Dir' etc. to express expertise for adult males.

[FilmGuy93]

That's a politeness/respect thing. I've called women younger than me "ma'am." It's just a good way to let her know that I respect her.

[Gingerbread_GB]

Being a guy from the military, this just sounds way too formal to me. I would only use "sir" "ma'am" if I am actually addressing a superior, a boss.

[Mr_Peterson]

It's polite and respectful, like when a girl the same age as a boy my age says 'Yes sir' or 'Yes Mr Peterson'.

[Wise4myage]

It sounds bad and lots of girls take it the wrong way, but its really done out of respect and good manners.

[Wise4myage]

But using a different word would be wise.

[Browneye57]

It means he's being polite. Perhaps a little patronizing, but polite nonetheless.

[Just_call_me_Levi]

Could be polite, submissive, sarcastic, resentful, or even playful... Mostly depending on the context and the guy's personality.

[Gwenhwyfar]

Accepting her advice or wishes as authoritative

[Gwenhwyfar]

U should be flattered. He respects u.

[Fineasa]

Its annoying too.

[Gwenhwyfar]

He means it as a good thing. Why do u find it annoying?

[Fineasa]

Cause it seems like I am older than him

[Gwenhwyfar]

He really doesn’t mean it that way. He admires ur intelligence and personality.

U like him that way? U know, like him like him?

[stepyo99]

It's respectful. What would you prefer? "Yo, bitch!"

[ttcccccccc]

Could be just good manners but I got to say when I catch my self doing it it kinda feels weird

[Davidpc]

Being from the Deep South, I address all females as ma'am and males as sir regardless of age. Even children. It's just the way we do it. It is a respect thing.

[undet29]

Polite. I do it if i like the girl 😀

[Anonymous]

It means she looks a lot older then her age. Biologically she's probably a lot older.

[Anonymous]

Some view it as a respect thing.

[4ngelic]

he's from the south

[andy530]

He’s being respectful or flirting

[Waldoe]

[Calgarydirty69]

[Anonymous]

[Anonymous]
