I observed a guard on LNR/WMR doing a ticket check by going round congratulating people who showed him a correct ticket by calling them Gentleman or Scholar (for a man) or Angel (for a woman).
This had the rather nice effect of entertaining people and slightly embarrassing those who didn't have a ticket ready to show (because they hadn't downloaded it or hadn't bought one), as it kind of broke his rhythm.
However, I noticed that only the men were called Scholars. Also some would say that Angel is not at the same level of respect as the other two terms.
Can anyone suggest equivalent terms for Gentleman and Scholar that the guard might wish to use for Women and Non Binary people, as we move into the 2020s?
