Am I not allowed to call someone “sir” any longer? Shit. I use this all the time. (Especially for female referees!! Kidding)Growing up in the South, I was called “boy” by every foreman and older man at my fathers hunt club. I was also raise to address men and women as “sir” or “ma’am” out of respect for my elders.
I recently “thank you, sir”-ed a cashier, whilst glancing at the person, realizing in that quick moment my assumption of their gender was likely wrong. I instantly felt bad about it. I’ll do better next time. However, “boy” is archaic. Usually a put-down.Am I not allowed to call someone “sir” any longer? Shit. I use this all the time. (Especially for female referees!! Kidding)
Look at @mlx. He's insulting the entire population of a town he doesn't know and whose citizens he has never met. How did we get to the point where that is considered acceptable?
I said, "Thanks, man", at the checkout last week. Wrong. I also felt bad. These old habits are hard to break. Fortunately, I adhere to the philosophy of Red Green and that gives me hope.I recently “thank you, sir”-ed a cashier, whilst glancing at the person, realizing in that quick moment my assumption of their gender was likely wrong.

And already back with the insults.You mean the town who called minorities "boy"?

yes and can vouch for this is South OC I have seen it as well. Daughter came back another time from being on her teams zoom training that she was doing at the park and there they were. She's a 17 yo interested in law and boy was she ticked off that she was zooming and they were playing
Well there’s a Blues team that does full on scrimmages at a park in south OC just behind my house don’t think they need a permit, to be fair there’s adult pick ups at the same place. the scrimmage Is posted all over Instagram. There’s a slammers that did full on scrimmages at a school when nobody can enter schools in OC. When pandemic was very high in OC there was a pats team training at a school also. The Blues said these events will not be covered by them, but it will be a shame if something happens and their club gets affected.
