I'm a 46 year old woman who has no problem being addressed as Ma'am. It's not condescending any more than when I address a man as "Sir".
Frankly, I'm sick and damned tired of our "Imperial Congress". They work for US. They are not royalty and they do not deserve any special respect for having raised a ton of money and convinced people to vote them into a cushy job with the best benefits our tax dollars can buy. I get peeved particularly when they call citizens in for hearings, sit above them in leather chairs and proceed to hector them. This is bullshit.
