Why does she want to be called sir?

[FreddieForever#1]

Why is that woman constantly want the guy to call her sir?

[Avalanche]

Rank maybe, she is likely a military type chick, so sir is a normal thing.

"Ma'am" is the correct term to refer female officer in the military.
Don't know why "Sir" is used a lot in Hollywood's movies & games.

[ZIGS]

Because she identifies as a capable soldier

Technically, its either ma'am or sir, it depends on what the female officer prefers and it is common practice for her to say which one it is when it comes up.

Never heard about the "prefer" thing in military, but ok, probably different army chapter by country.

[KripTed]

You know why.

It starts with a W.

When I was active Army you called Male officers Sir, and female Ma'am. This is just another new modern crap.

I have known women in the military, some indeed prefer sir over ma'am, they just don't moan about it, they just say 'i prefer sir, over ma'am' maybe it is, modern crap as you put it, never do understand these changes, it just seems like a way to keep everyone on egg shells.

He made the preference thing up. It is either Sir for men or Ma'am for women.

No, it’s not. It’s Sir for men, Ma’am for women. Period.

This. ⤴

Erm... What??
There are untold thousands of female officers, of all rank in all militaries in the States, UK, Europe, and on and on. All referred to as "Ma'am."

All capable "soldiers," Army, Navy, Airforce, Marines, etc.

This is "woke" plain and simple.

But having said that, it is soooo refreshing to see a protagonist, in a AAA game who is both male. and white.

And this is from a guy who used to pick FM characters in MMOs and the like- (the "id rather watch a fm etc...) -back when we had a choice.
Not when it was constantly the shoehorned "norm" of these past few years.

So Kudos, Ascendant Studios,- (the "sir thing" apart.) -

for not going full woke.

👍🏻

And, hopefully as the story unfolds it stays that way. 🤞

Rank, moving on

EDIT, also lol, does nobody here actually own the game?

[Hermit]

More woke garbage
