[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dana is childless, is she not?[/quote] Spinster refers to an unmarried woman, not a childless woman.[/quote] The Oxford American English Dictionary defines spinster as "an unmarried woman, typically an older woman beyond the usual age for marriage". It adds: "In modern everyday English, however, spinster cannot be used to mean simply 'unmarried woman'; as such, it is a derogatory term, referring or alluding to a stereotype of an older woman who is unmarried, childless, prissy, and repressed."[/quote] Welp, do you really want to go around using such a misogynistic term?[/quote]
