Fuck that irks me

The forced vaguity is so strange

Idgaf if youre gay or whatever or some sort of ally, literally have no problem with any of that

Just quit dumbing language down further and further

 

[HellforLeather]

I instantly think "gay" when I hear "my partner"

Heteros that use this phrase should be castrated.

 

[TaySan]

I prefer bf/gf or significant other over my partner. Like it sounds like you're not really in a relationship and they are your buddy or something lol

 

[Grinchy]

"my significant other"

 

[p_banned]

I told you many times to call me daddy @teezzy .

 

[cryptoadam]

Its just more alpahbet mafia trying to change and control.language. cant have normal.people.say my wife or my husband because that might offend some polyamourse trans gay queer sixsome.

 

[Cravis]

Can't stand when people do that. In my mind I'm thinking…

 

[teezzy]

I told you many times to call me daddy @teezzy .

This is why i dont trust weirdos like you

 

[Optimus]

This kind of word meaning change or evolution also bothers me because there are many many other contexts where you would use the word partner and it wouldn't have any romantic context. In fact, I hear someone referring to a gf/bf/spouse as their partner and I don't think it has any romantic context, but then it actually does or... is supposed to.

Yeah, the co-opting of language has got to stop. Gender neutral language is inferior language.

 

[p_banned]

To be fair it's more my partners for the typical leftist these days. My husband, my boyfriend and my girlfriend's husband are unpacking their new TOTK Zelda switch.

 

[teezzy]

"my significant other"

 

[A Elbereth Gilthoniel]

I like "my woman". It seems to bother people.

 

[WesternBlood]

I remember when my Grandmother would use "boyfriend" and "girlfriend" as literally your friends who are boys or girls. When I was young I told someone in class that I had a number of girlfriends, to which the teacher over heard and corrected me that isn't the way you use those words.

That is all I have to add to this conversation.

 

[Amorous Biscuit]

my partner tells me vaguity isn't a word.

 

[Dr. Farnsgoth]

Partner makes you sound like a homo

Boyfriend/girlfriend sound juvenile though

There has to be a better alternative

That's what I thought for a long time too. I was blissfully ignorant of the deeply broken minds that allow people to freely use the phrase.

Squeeze?

 

[Erdrick]

It's fucking stupid to me and I know a few people who pull this line. Shocker that they're also super left-wing as well. Real fun at parties too.

Boyfriend, Girlfriend, Husband, Wife.

Is that so fucking hard?

This is my lady.

[GreyHorace]

Yeah. It bothers me somewhat when hetero couples use that word. Fuck the alphabet mafia getting offended if you call someone your wife or husband.

 

[FactsAreDead]

When someone, especially a guy, calls his significant other "partner", it's always because of some lgbtq bs.

 

[Arkam]

I assume men who use the term 'partner' are gay.

 

[Glittertits McGee]

significant otter

 

[Ferdinand the Cowfish]

This irritates the ever-loving fuck out of me. Especially married couples who refer to their husband/wife as partner.

 

[lock2k]

Fuck that irks me

I agree.

I usually say my wife.

"my significant other"

This stuff always makes me laugh.

Wife's friend constantly goes on about being bisexual. Always talking about her parents not accepting it and society being against it etc. Married to the only guy she's ever had sex with for about 15 years at this point.

There's a bitch in work constantly refers to her "partner" as "they" or "them" etc in conversation. Going around with rainbow pin badges and stupid pride flag at her desk. "Partner" comes to a work night out and it turns out she's engaged to a decent regular dude who is into football and beer etc. Just all a big act at work so she can appear to be either more interesting or part of LGBTQLMNOP. I wonder sometimes if he knows she is basically trying to hide the fact that he's a straight white male from her colleagues.

I suppose it's what happens went you glorify being anything but straight. People want to get a little bit of that special treatment.

 

[ogrebushi]

I'll freely admit to using "Partner" or "Signifigant other" or other bullshit like that online, but mostly from and old opsec habit, saying Wife reveals marriage status and at least one gender of the household.
I know its kinda "old school" to pay attention to that, and lets face it her ass is here in this thread even!

 

[and 3 others]

Squeeze?

[Pumpkin Seeds]

Put them on the same level as people who call their pets "fur persons".

 

[Mickmrly]

I find it the most accurate description to be honest. People can say friends with benefits, partner, all of that, but the person they squeeze/squeezes them is a good catch all term.

 

[Bionic Wolf]

Always used "partner" as a work phrase. LGBT love to redefine words.

 

[SpartanN92]

My first thought when I hear "partner".

You're a fucking faggot, dude.

Best thing for me is my partner is an AR-15. Suddenly they don't want to meet him.

 

[El Rey]

I've been hearing it a lot lately and I'm like wtf? Especially hearing it from a man I'm like wait are you gay? Then they introduce me to a woman and I'm like

 

[WesternBlood]

For me it depends on my audience.

9 times out of 10, I announce her as "My Woman." Otherwise I call her my girlfriend.

This causes many men with feminine energy to seethe and protest on behalf of their balls being squirreled away by their partners.

 

[Helljumper]

Yes, it's horrible. I wouldn't use it.

I also hate the following:

Wifey (this one's popular in inner city areas)
Hubby
Significant other

 

[Grinchy]

Nothing is worse than boo and bae. Fuck off with that shit.
