Though you didn't ask, here are some language tips for interacting with women
in the US (and most other english speaking nations):
- "sir" is gendered, and is not used for greeting women. It is only used for men.
- "Prof." or "Professor" is universal and appropriate for all faculty, regardless of gender.
- "Dr." is appropriate for everyone with a PhD.
- "Ma'am" is acceptable for women, but very rarely used.
- "mom" is never appropriate in a professional context, as it means "mother".
You might be thinking "but how am I supposed to know the gender of the person?"
