Can back this up, too. They're taught from high school journalism to use gender neutral, pc language.

Yup. I roll my eyes when someone refers to Mrs. Jones as "chairperson." If she is a female, she should be referred to as "ChairWoman." This PC stuff is out of hand.

Even our Pastor is doing this. I called him on it, and he said he did not want to offend anyone. I told him that since I chaired the Building Committe, I was to be referred to as ChairMAN; my wife was chair of another committee, and she was to be reffered to as ChairWOMAN.

Sheesh!
