DMV real estate agents,
In light of the racial strife and related unrest, I humbly request that you do your part to help the nation heal, and to help further the anti-racism movement. When you list a property, please refrain from using the terms "master bedroom" or "master bathroom" going forward ( for obvious reasons) Alternative terms you could use in prooerty descriptions could be "primary bedroom" or "main bathroom" Just a small suggestion that coild.go a long way at healing divisions. Remember to be kind. |
I had never thought of the term “master bedroom“ in terms of slavery. Is that the origin? The term master has been used throughout history, and not always in regards to slavery. |
| Oh gosh. This is going too far. Get a grip, OP. |
| Solid troll. |
Troll score: 2 Demerits for: Trying too hard, being too obvious and lack of originality |
Trolling aside, the term actually has nothing to do with slave masters. It didn't even come into use until the early 20th century. And of course the term Master has been used a long time in the English language to signify the chief or owner of the home. I guess we need to cancel Pride and Prejudice too. |

This request is just making light of all the things that are happening right now.
We are living in a period of unrest + change. Mocking this only sets us all back. Don’t tell me.....you are also for Paw 🐾 Patrol going off the air because Chase is a cop??! |
| Walk to houses of worship is my favorite code word for Jewish buyers only |
soooo stupid. give it a rest. this is going way too far.
|
Do the terms really hurt people of color’s feelings? Or is your imagination running wild to propose anything that’ll make you feel morally superior? |
|
This seems like a fair request. We can all do our part to mitigate the effects of racism.
All of you Trumpers posting in this thread need to cool off! |
| really? i'm onboard.. lets stop using the color black all together as well b/c it's offensive. lets go... chu chu |
|
Looks like this is an idea with merit. To all the privileged people who can’t handle any change, this change is real (and welcomed)
