We really need a concerted effort to fight leftist Newspeak and take back the language.

We ought to be on their cases every time they try to force a politically correct euphemism on us.

By they, I mean the leftists who are constantly telling us what we may or may not say, what we mean, and what we think.

“Owner’s Suite”?

What if it’s a rented house? Tenant not allowed to use it?

I tend not to care one way or the other about stuff like this till the PC crowd tries to make like it matters, then I insist on using the traditional term just BECAUSE they’re being morons.

I remember the idiocy of the meltdown of the word "man"
to "person" . . . oops per-son implies a male heir
to "perpeople" . . . oops, perpeople could offend the animal kingdon
to "per-creature" so as not to offend animals.

“Master” has connotation problems, in gender (it skews toward male) and race (the slave-master).

Yeah, "owner" is much better.

Also, you shouldn’t call yourself A Homeowner just because you own a home. It would be unfair and hurtful to the (sad-sack, loser) Homeowners that lost their homes and are now Homeless.

But if you think of it in the, pardon me, but “sexual domination” sense, the master bedroom should be celebrated!

I know in the automotive supplier community, about 5 yrs ago it became “politically incorrect” to talk about “master cylinder” and “slave cylinder” for brake systems.

With everything that’s going on in this country, this is what these fools choose to worry about?

"A survey of 10 major Washington, D.C.-area homebuilders found that six no longer use the term “master” in their floor plans to describe the largest bedroom in the house."

If they tried to foist that newspeak garbage on me, I would be compelled to introduce them to two more words: You're fired.

With the invention of the touchpad, "webMEISTER" has become part of late night surfing ~ so has "SURFING" ~ so, the SURFING ROOM or the MEISTER ROOM.

Beam me up Scottie!

Master is always male.

Mistress is female.

I heard Erick Ericson talking about this on WSB tonight while driving to a GOP meeting. Just absolutely absurd.
