Would that mean that being humble is considered bad in Canada?

(Here the 'sir' was not a forced one due to any kind of superiority BL possses over Adrin - except being a senior desi and sheriff ;) - and so I presume it just came out voluntarily)

Chandresh,

Nothing wrong with humility, but in my experience here, too much humility may be interpreted as a sign of weak self-confidence, even when its not the case. Its just not in the culture, here they love people who're good at what they do and who can be a bit brash when needed. That does not translate into rudeness though, there's a fine line that I'm unable to paint in words.

Besides, "Sir" ain't the prevailing vernacular. The only context I find myself using it in is jest.

Thirdly, I'm such a gentle guy, hardly the sheriff type. :p

Sorry Tiger “G “for the Sir, kya batau kambak adat bangaya . will have to change any way thanks for the advise , I do understand your point of view . This culture does not respect people calling them” Sir “ is considered inferior and degrading . Could be that it is reminder of their colonial past and who the word “Sir “was used by the slaves to address the Saabs. I have got your point .Thanks.:cheers:
