WRITING: Mac gets even worse!

Unbelievable:

husband – gender-specific expression.  A gender-neutral word like ‘spouse’ may be appropriate.

Tell me, do you really believe we’re smarter than we were?

    Yeah, “wife” got the same response from iPage. They did let “mother” get by without comment, but they might catch that and “father” in the next version. Maybe I’ll suggest it to them and see if they’re dumb enough to agree.
