Well, no wonder her students are confused.
Even their teacher who confidently makes her students refer to her as “Mx” doesn’t know what to tell her students to say in this situation.
Her sweet little Texan students obviously mean well and are trying to be respectful to their teacher by answering her “Yes, ma’am” or “No ma’am” just like their mama taught them, but since she doesn’t identify as a ma’am that can make things a little awkward for them.
