A housewife is to be called a “consumer”?

Makes absolutely no sense.

It is an insult.

Housewife is a job she is a producer of something of value. When you call her a consumer you are saying she produces nothing of value, that she is a leech.

What if a woman falls in love with a house and wants to marry it? Are we going to deny marriage equality for people who were born with a building centered sexual orientation? Certainly she would then be a "housewife", and calling her a mere "consumer" of the house would be insulting to her spouse.

These people are so regressive they got to keep up, their political correctness is mired in the bigotries of last week!

I’ll say it is a biased, bigoted statement for assuming housewives don’t DO any type of production, demeaning their production and raising of children or unpaid labor feminists often decry.

It makes zero sense.

“Housewife” is an occupation — the person doing the job is a “producer”.
