[QUOTE="Seaviewer, post: 382620, member: 57"] The way the word "partner" has largely replaced "husband" and "wife." I presume the reason is to promote equality between the sexes, and with unmarried and same-sex couples, but it comes across to me quite bloodless - as in a business partnership. The irony is that it seems that a lot of same-sex couples seem to take pleasure in calling each other husband or wife, as the case may be. [/QUOTE]
