    From the article.. Sapiosexual: a person that finds intelligence to be a sexually attractive quality in a person. Learned something new today.. I wonder if there is a word for finding someone stupid to be hot?!

    If the gender-neutral person got married, would it be a mrx. or a mxs?

    MX is a missile, not a gender.
And until it is accepted by Words for Friends, it isn’t real.

    Silly.
How many times will Mx be thought to mean Mexican?
Then, all other nationalities will be demanding their own prefix to show their preferred location of national origin.

Another Liberal idea that looked good on paper.

    [[Dictionary.com added 150 new words, including the Mx. prefix ]]
Did they simultaneously remove the word ABOMINATION from the dictionary?
