Some reality needs to be introduced into this particular debate. Bland has heard of an individual from the south being terminated from a bank in Connecticut for repeatedly using "ma'am" when addressing an evidently rather too damn touchy female.

I think that Bland makes an important point here. We cannot allow the standard for harassment or discrimination or plain, ordinary insults be set by the thinnest-skinned persons. The standard needs to be reasonable.
