Stop saying sir when addressing anyone it is a slave word instead use this

Throughout the era of slavery, the word SIR gained weight and became incredibly prominent. Both the enslavers and their slaves were unable to pronounce each other’s names correctly due to a language barrier.

One of the reasons behind the establishment of SIR as a neutral platform for respectfully addressing masters rather than demeaning their esteemed names by simple slaves was the disparaging naming of masters’ names.

Again, even with their vital education, the enslavers were unable to pronounce names from jaw-breaking Africa. For instance, enslavers may have mispronounced words like Oluruntimiyin, Nwabueze, etc. Furthermore, the majority of slaves refused to respond to questions about their names due to pronunciations that are typically inconsistent with the names.

Therefore, SIR was established for the man, his sons, male friends, etc., and madam/e for the master’s wife, female enslavers and their daughters, etc., in order to end the difficulties that barrier languages placed upon masters and their servants. The slavers no longer address their masters by name after that arrangement. They only have to say SIR/madam/e.

For their subordinates, however, the master created BOY and GIRL. Every man, regardless of age, is referred to as BOY, and every female slave, regardless of age, is called GIRL.

The slaver owners will then give an order, such as “Get me an apple and a glass of wine,” to which the BOY or GIRL will reply, “Yes, SIR,/MADAM/E,” and so on. In this scenario, if the master calls out to his manservant, “Boy/Girl,” s/he will respond, “SIR/MADAM/E.”

Thus, if you examine the word SIR closely, you will all find that it depicts a master-servant relationship. Saying SIR is always an answer from below.

The one you refer to as a SIR holds a higher rank than you, having taken up a lower post. You are below him, and he is above.

For this reason, the president of every nation is typically referred to as Mr. President rather than SIR. President. The reason for this is that SIR applies vertically, whereas Mr. applies horizontally.

Say “Hello, Mr.!” to the educated man standing next to you, for example. In response, that person will say, “Hello, Mr. Can I assist you?

“Mr.” is a modern title that puts all parties on an equal footing regardless of their age, academic level, or anything else, rather than placing them in a superior or inferior relationship.

Therefore, use Mr. to put yourself and the person you are speaking with on an equal footing rather than SLAVERY WORDS, which place you below them like a SLAVE.
