To address a man when you don't know his name, surname is easy its 'Sir'

But whats universal for a woman? 'miss' could be wrong as she might be married, 'mrs' again could be wrong and sounds a lil bit cheeky.

'ma'am' is too formal same with 'lady'

I believe the formal address is 'ma'am', and then if you get to have sex with them, in a later anecdote you can refer to them as 'ma'am I laid'

from a personal point of view id think 'madam' and 'maam' are odd. Could be my age though but if those are the terms the majority agree with then i shall change my ways

If i know someones surname i do use Ms (and then the surname) untill im given permission to use a first name

Men have it easy 'Sir'

My old man used to tell me that you needn't call anyone "Sir" who hasn't been knighted or isn't your superior officer!

From that day on I (Ric) always prefixed my teachers surnames with Mr, Mrs or Miss.

Perfectly polite without being subservient and I never got pulled up over it either.

Have you noticed the first thing Yanks do when they meet is to exchange names and shake hands?

It seems to have died out in this country, people seem very reticent about sharing their identity.

Now I am of a certain age (apparently) I am addressed often as Madam.

I was called Miss today. Ok, he was trying to sell me something but I was chuffed anyway!

Nearly every formal letter I get addresses me as Mrs. It seems to be the done thing to assume a woman of my age is married rather than to use Ms.

I dislike Ms. anyway.

Call me old fashioned but shouldnt your date have introduced you both? If he'd said mum this is so un so and didnt say her name I would have asked blaming him. Xx
