Having heard the phrase, faint heart never won fair lady for the third time in very short span, i'm determined to find out its origin This seems rather a poor act of classification,. Otherwise, as elliot frisch has suggested, lady is the term you want But in my opinion, if you're talking about clients of yours, be gender neutral Lady can have negative implications in this setting because it is often used in a negative fashion, e.g That lady wouldn't stop talking about.
Even when lady macbeth says And take my milk for gall, that would definitely support the literal humorism theory, but i still don't understand how we get from milk to blood (too much of the blood humor supposedly being the problem). Where did the saying ladies first originate Did it originally appeared in english countries, or And is this always expressed in a positive/polite tune of meaning
