Its more about how you say it. Outside of a work setting sometimes it comes across as sarcastic.

Someone called me ma'am once when I visited America. It made me feel 100 years old

It's how you say it. Say it with a little sway at the end. Maybe wiggle your eyebrows up and down.

Ma’am makes me feel like somebody’s grandma.

Is that offensive already?
Sometimes I think that so many things can somehow be offensive in whatever way that 'c*nt' is the least offensive thing to say. 😶

It's ok. I won't kill you if you do.

I’ve found Miss to be better received generally. Then again that may come off gender assuming so don’t ask me 😶
