Who's she, the cats Mother?

[Charis]

Phrase: Who's she the cats Mother? What does that mean

[shybearuk]

If you are talking to person A, and refer to person B as 'she' rather than using her name while she is within earshot, person B will often say 'Who's she? That cat's mother?', meaning that it is impolite to refer to a woman as 'she' in her presence.
