Chicago Tribune, Illinois, September 20, 1925
women for at least the last 80 years: don’t call me pet names if you don’t know me, it’s demeaning
men: oh all of a SUDDEN you can’t call a waitress “sweetheart” or “dear” what is this NEW feminist bullshit
everybody about any guy over 40: oh he’s from a different time, it was normal back then! He doesn’t mean anything by it!
image transcript: Do not call a waitress dearie or honey. She is not your dear or honey because she is obliged to wait on you. (em dash) A waitress. end transcript.
