re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]
Have to admit, that one drives me nuts. I have a girlfriend, and I have three partners; they're all men, and we're in business together. Even when I am talking about business, if I refer to them as my partners, people suddenly assume that we're a family business.
I've always pictured using those terms, I'll get married to my wife, and I'll be her wife. And I've always used girlfriend, instead of partner, etc. That's just me though.
