    You know what? No. “Husband” “Wife” and “Spouse” have a legal meaning that has ramifications in tax and contract law, so I can only assume (especially from someone of his ethical caliber) that using such language is attempted fraud.

      lol okay word police.

      I’m sure this keeps you up at night tossing and turning that someone used the word husband when it wasn’t technically correct under the strict definition of ThE lEgAl SyStEm

        Okay so, other than “husband” and “woman” are there any other words the left don’t want to allow defining? How long is this list going to get?

          “the left”, eh? You are aware that plenty of people on “the right” allege things in social media that they would never put in a court filing, yes?

          Hello I’m the left’s official spokesperson and I think I can clear up this confusion.

          A woman is someone who wants to be a woman.

          A husband is someone who wants to be a husband and has consent from the person they’re a husband of.

          Both of these words are identities, and letting people be who they want to be when it doesn’t affect other people is one of the values of the left. So you can go ahead and extend this reasoning to all personal identities that don’t harm others, and I think that answers your question.
