Jessica23 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I use Ms because Miss says 'I am not married' and Mrs says 'I am married' and I don't think either of those things is worth an identity-shaping title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a male I don't have to consider any of those options as there aren't any. 'Mr' identifies me as male, that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms can only have substance if the other titles didn't exist, if you see my logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do, and that's why it was created - to counterbalance the fact that men didn't have to advertise their marital status with their title and women did. And aren't we lucky to live in a world where that option is now available to women? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presently options/choices are always good, hopefully in the future through enlightenment those options won't be necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
