Why Do Most Single Ladies Get Angry When Addressed As 'ma' by Mbkite(op): 8:46am On Apr 16, 2016
I have noticed that most single ladies get angry when you address them as 'madam' but, its not the case with single men. I have noticed this even in the corporate setting especially in Nigeria.

I have a female friend who's actually older than me, but she likes to call me madam, so one day she called me madam in d presence of some people, I replied with "yes aunty" grin her face changed, she was obviously angry grin but when a guy calls me madam, I really don't mind, I see it as a sign of respect, and it actually makes me see myself as more superior to him grin

Its not cool , even we single ladies call.ourselves babe and the young married ones preffered to be called babes within their circle..
Most annoying is when a guy yur dating calling one ma.

For me ,that was the end of the relationship.. If after three times,i say my displeasure of ma and still yur trying only God knows what? Then its over.. Next time, when he dates the next babe, he will never forget to call her bae or honey instead of ma'am or ma.. E brain go work wella next time..
When shes married, then by all.means call her madam, she will.smile and listen to what u have to say.
