Hey, Girls!
My mom and I were used-car-shopping yesterday. At one lot, the salesman (after going into the office to check something) got our attention by calling out, "Hey, girls!"
This didn't bother my mom.
If the salesman was over the age of 60, it wouldn't have bothered me much.
But....
The salesman was probably about 30 (i.e. five years younger than me), so it bothered me quite a lot.
Today at work I told the story (separately) to two male co-workers. One is in his late 30's, the other in his mid-20's. As soon as I got to the "Hey, girls!" part of the story, both of them shook their heads at his idiocy.
