People are divided on whether calling a female teacher 'miss' is sexist, with one school dropping the word due to what they described as "cultural misogyny."
A number of teachers and former students have weighed in on the debate, which kickstarted from a Twitter post that asked 'Is it not sort of obvious that there is a weighty difference between “sir” and “miss”?'
The post, from Ava-Santina, accompanies an article by The Times in the UK which revealed that one "leading school" perceives the term 'miss' as cultural misogyny and despite its "long-established practice", is set to be dropping it.
