Yes sir

You sir are speaking a dying language. Unfortunately respect is becoming a forgotten past...

My wife, who is 3 years my jr, gets pissed when I say ma'am to her with a yes or a no in front.

I was raised right, and that is what I do.

 

[MuleShoe]

Amen! And I was raised to open doors for women and always have opened doors for my wife! I see a few from this generation who have been taught respect !’

 

[basstracker89]

Amen

I say it to both kids and adults, regardless of age. Give respect to get respect. We were raised in a different era. But I ensure all the children in my family follow suit.

My growing up, it wasn’t optional. Dad wasn’t playing when it came to respect

Amen! And I was raised to open doors for women and always have opened doors for my wife! I see a few from this generation who have been taught respect !’

I try to do this for my wife but half the time she‘ll bust up in a store or something before I can get to the door handle so I stand outside with my hands up saying “you gonna open it for me or not?” Sometimes she will step back out and let me open the door.

Well when I grew up Forties and fifties, there were rules.
1. Hats were never worn in the house or eating a meal
2. Yes Ma'am or Sir was a given to anyone older.
3. Children were never in a conversation when grownups were talking. Go outside and play. Children should be seen and not heard.
4. When Ladies sat on the front porch and men who wore hats walked by, they would tip their hats and greet them with the appropriate time of day.
5. You opened the doors for the ladies including the car door.
6. When a lady sat down you pulled out the chair and helped her to sit.
There were a lot more.
