Must suck for you that more and more straight folks are referring to their spouses as partners.
Out of curiosity: care to provide a link to a study about that?
I don't have any studies to quote on that, for multiple reasons:
I don't care enough to find one.
The dictionary shall suffice.
I notice it frequently when in public.
Well, that just means: 'I don't know jack about the subject, but I heard my neighbor John call his wife a partner in a local bar'
Have anything to dispute it, cause I hear alot of married couples refer to ther spouses as partners.
I thought dictionaries take words that are generally accepted.
