Something I find really demeaning is when a man is talking to a woman (NOT his girlfriend or daughter or wife) and calls her "hon" or "sweetheart". Totally fries me because it puts the woman in a subservient position, whether that's his intention or not. Of course, she can correct him, but then she's a "bitch".

I like that my sweetheart always refers to me as "his lady"... not his girlfriend, but his lady.
