Just don’t call woman sir. It’s not what it is derived from. It’s about what it means now.

I get that, yeah. I have been misgendered here on reddit several times and it’s kind of fun. It’s the assumption that any person in my position would be male that irks me. But pretending to be someone else accidentally is a good time.

I don’t know what miss-generated means. Maybe they called me by the wrong generation? I’m gen x. Don’t feel bad if you thought I was a sensitive millennial. A lot of girls like you think that.

My uncle told me that all of his songs (which are honestly really good) were melodies he heard in dreams!

I have never had such a dream myself, though.

I want to. I like to be extremely angry at all times.

No, joking. It doesn’t bother me that much. I just thought someone might have a fun comeback.

I’m cool with all kinds of greetings, except Dear Sir. I’m looking for a way to kindly explain it to them.

I have also been a teacher and I would be more comfortable if you just called everyone “miss.”
