'Master bedroom' racist
 The "master suite" is being phased out -- not from our homes, but from our lexicon.A survey of 10 major Washington, D.C.-area homebuilders found that six no longer use the term "master" in their floor plans to describe the largest bedroom in the house....Why? In large part for exactly the reason you would think: "Master" has connotation problems, in gender (it skews toward male) and race (the slave-master). Posted by: Beavis 2013-04-20 |
