Nah, I always have female officers addressed as sir. Cause, er, that's protocol in Starfleet and I'm horribly, heavily influenced by Trek, much as I dislike it, I still pinch things.
And rather off-topic, do you mind if I use the phrase 'brood-mother' (not the specific alien, just the name) in something I'm writing?
Not at all. I suspect it's a relatively common sciffy term.
