The Houston Association of REALTORS® says it will stop permitting the term “master bedroom” or “master bathroom” to be used in MLS descriptions. The decision to remove the term comes after a group of real estate professionals said the term “master” on property description represents a potential stigma.
HAR has updated the phrase to “primary bedroom” and “primary bath” on its MLS and on har.com.
The national standards organization for MLSs is reportedly considering a similar change that would make “primary” the new standard nationwide.
“‘Master’ represents a stigma and place in time that we need to move forward from,” Tiffany Curry, a Houston real estate broker and owner of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, told the Houston Chronicle. “As a progressive, diverse city, Houston should be reflective of its citizenship.”
Some home builders are dropping the term, too. David Weekley Homes now refers to the space as the “owner’s retreat” instead.
Any time there is a constant property tax, you don’t really own the property, you are in effect paying a rent. Just try to stop paying and see what happens.

Marx played exactly the same games with language.
It’s now the *en suite*.
I call my bedroom the Kings Quarters.
Demand the realtors show the houses on their knees—out of respect for George Floyd!
David Weekley has been doing that for at least 10 years.

It was a stupid term, anyway, so whatever.
Now, please stop calling every structure a “home.”
Everyone laughed at me when I constantly pointed out how liberals were changing the language because of PC bullshirt.
I always say, REFUSE to use their “new” terms like “gender” for “sex”, “rain forest” for “jungle”, or “homeless person” for “bum” or “hobo”.
Remember?
Look where we are now! The left is eliminating/changing words so fast that we can’t keep up.
“Master” bedroom? Rhode Island?
“Snap, Crackle, and Pop”, “Aunt Jemima”, and “Uncle Ben” being ERASED from history!
