You know, Tori, I used to feel the same way, but cowboys (and military people, and most people who were raised in the South) "ma'am" every woman they talk to. It's just the polite thing to do. :)
He looks like the god of manners. But the top button of his jeans undone is a subtle invitation to test otherwise. hehe Love it!
I think it's the tone "ma'am" is used in that gets me. If it is southern or military, makes my knees buckle. But if customer service the week after Christmas, suddenly, Ma'am isn't sounding very nice. LOL

Of course, if he "ma'am"s me, I'd have to hurt him. *g*

LOL Colleen. Yep, that top button just sorta draws the eye, doesn't it?
And you're right, a harried customer service rep calling you ma'am doesn't have quite the same effect...
