So “partner” is the trendy buzzword du jour? Didn’t those used to be called “girlfriends”, “boyfriends”, “f***-buddies”, “friends with benefits”, etc.?
Boy do I feel old-fashioned when I pine for the days of people sa ying “husband” and “wife”.
They use partner instead of husband and wife now I think to hide when they have a husband and they are a guy. Eye roll.
