Yer but this is the 21st century, If you ask a friend who is a woman at work to get you a coffee it can be seen as derogatory/sexist/misogynistic by someone looking in on the conversation these days. It is all about perception to the world and not the intent between two people. Hell, even graduates, get treated better than long time employees. Hell, even some people find the word wife demeaning these days and expect you to call your wife your partner. I've had people snap at me because I asked how long have you and your wife been together. Get the crazy eye and they go well my PARTNER (in an aggressive voice) and I have been together for... One couple said wife is derogatory to me and not to use that word anywhere lol |
You are right and that is just sad ... the PC train seems not to have lead us to being kinder to each other and more conscience but instead seems to have taken most people to Triggeredsville
