If someone calls you ma'am, is it a respect thing or are they saying you're old?

I have told this story before. But many years ago at LAX a tall younger Texan who was double my wifes height became fascinated by her Scottish accent and loomed over her for over an hour "Ma'am"ing her half to death. It was hilarious to watch. I occasionally immitated it for a few weeks after we got back home. The bruises were worth it..😷

@MyNameIsHurl Wife and I were both big "Four weddings and a funeral" fans and I was reminded of this pairing, which was wedding three.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109831/mediaviewer/rm1057858561/?ref_=ttch_ph_2
