DAYTON, Ohio, February 23, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – A Catholic university in Ohio has put the words “husband” and “wife” on a list of words that students should n’t use in order to meet “professional expectations.”
The University of Dayton’s (UD) website offers a “gender inclusive language” listfor students. The site is under the university's "Women's Center" section. The school lists words deemed inappropriate because they are gender-specific, along with substitute words deemed appropriate.
