Oh, fuck do I ever agree. I hate when people call women "ladies." Its a dog name. "Look at the pretty lady... oh she shakes hands!"
Now, when Matthew McCaughnaehey says "How you ladies doin' tonight" in Dazed and Confused, that's funny. It can be used comically in that regard, but the delivery has to be perfect.
A young stockbroker going up to a group of girls and saying "Helllo, ladies" is lame.
