Female officers in star trek other sci-fi works were routinely addressed as 'sir'. I don't think the term is meant to signify a gender in the context of addressing a military superior.
I think this is another example of the dumbing down of the masses. Understanding of traditions dwindles and practices lose their meaning.
And the pussification of our military continues.
