I agree, it's more of a southern trait. Although when I worked in retail, I would use the Yes Sir or Yes Ma'am regularly. So maybe it's a southern/retail thing. I know this guy, Forest. Forest Gump? He says it all the time.

Yes ma'am, absolutely. It is a sign of proper respect but can be overused. For example there is no need to end every sentence with ma'am / sir.

Yes mam - I live in the South - it is expected to address others in this manner.

I say it to my husband and it drives him wild. He loves it! I think he'll buy me anything I ask for just because I say "yes, sir." I only do it sometimes and it completely changes his whole demeanor and puffs up his chest. I lose nothing and gain everything. lol

I don't like when people say "mam" to me, it makes me feel old, and I'm not even 30.
