- I've had the same thing happen to me, too!
-
- Since aimee tweedie, my wife, signs up for a lot of things
- (mail lists, etc.) that we subsequently receive as addressed
- to mr. and ms. tweedie.
-
- Aimee didn't change her name because she suddenly became my
- property once we got married; must these groups assume that
- she's a domineerign feminist and I'm the henpecked "piece of
- property?" ;)
-
- Incidentially, the only organizations that don't consistently
- do that are lesbian/gay/bi ones, but perhaps that's because
- they think we are "housemates". *sigh*
-
- - steve kendrick, who is against mandatory sexism, heterosexism
- and all other straightjackets, semantic or
- otherwise....
