In the state of California, heterosexual married couples can no longer be referred to as husbands and wives. Democrat Governor Jerry Brown has signed a bill into law that not only redefines marriage, but eliminates any reference to husband and wife, replacing each with the generic term of spouse.
SB 1306 was sponsored by Democrat Mark Leno from San Francisco. Christian News Network reports on the content of said bill. Under existing law, a reference to husband and wife, spouses, or married persons, or a comparable term, includes persons who are lawfully married to each other and persons who were previously lawfully married to each other, as is appropriate under the circumstances of the particular case, it reads. The bill would delete references to husband or wife in the Family Code and would instead refer to a spouse, and would make other related changes.

It's like it has always been said. liberals. left-wingers will never be satisfied, fulfilled. Where this ends is anybody's guess.
and fwiw, I hate the term “spouse”.
Not sure why, maybe because it rhymes with “louse”.
Brown is only the latest supervisor of the Malifoamia Lunatic Asylum.
There have been others before, and there will be others afterward.
We are long since used to this; the problem is that this Professional Oddball has countless imitators and admirers all over the country.

Bill sponsored by a butt pirate. No surprise there. I’d use the term as much as possible around him just to piss him off and point out that two butt pirates can’t marry; only dig for fecal treasure...; )
Since Moonbeam is married and she can no longer be called a wife. Perhaps a “Piece of C**T” is preferred.
When moral imbeciles achieve a numerical majority and the rest are afraid to speak, you are headed down a dark road.
Husband and wife are biblical terms and are going to be around for awhile under 1st Amendment protected freedoms of religion and speech.
Love your quote by C.S. Lewis.
I'm also thinking of the many homos who will be outraged because they can no longer refer to each other as husband or wife either.
I know little of their culture and care to not to know anything, but there are those who specialize only in one end or the other from what I am told.
We know that the relativists hate the idea of objective truth. If contemporary progressivism is characterized by anything, it's relativism.
But truth is convertible with reality --existence. So in rejecting truth, they are, in principle, rejecting existence.
So there is no logical end to it. Since the devil can't create something from nothing, as God can, he is left to invert or pervert whatever he can.
LOL!!
Thanks lbryce. Agitation for this started about 2006, and led straight to Prop 8.
