[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are very sensitive to word choices and what they mean/imply. If you are describing a woman - say "woman," if you "have a wife" say you are "married" or have a "partner." [/quote] Yes, but why are things different now? What caused the shift? Do you think it’s a good or bad thing? I feel like in 10-20 years the language that 25 year olds feel is acceptable now will be considered offensive in some other way.[/quote] They're not. You've just been roaming around unchecked. :-) But really, some folks are real WORD people, like the choice of words matters. Plenty of other folks are IMPLIED INTENTION folks. It can definitely cause issues in relationships, don't see why other interactions would be different. [/quote]
