So it looks darned well possible that Hillary Clinton could be the next President of the United States of America.

I don't want to discuss the implications of that, or her policies, statements, or anything else.

But...

If she is to be "Madam President," we've had a remarkable coup. We call the President's wife the First Lady. What were we going to call the President's husband? Well... we'd get to call him "Mr. President!"

What *DO* you call the husband of the President?

I'd just call him Bill, personally..


Hmm.. along related lines.. among the Queen of England's odder titles is the Duke of Lancaster.. does that make prince Philip a duchess..?

If that's okay with you?

Yeah, I'd call him Bill.
But if it's the First Lady, then why can't it be the First Man? ...woah that sounds like Adam and Eve...

I remember reading something about the French and how the language has genders, there's no word for a female president in their language (as opposed to the gender neutral term in English)

i would have changed ***** to phallus, and claire to petey Petey

I would imagine he'll be referred to as Bill/Former President Clinton to avoid confusion but I think first...something would be fitting, maybe gent/gentleman rather than man like lady is to woman? Maybe...

Well traditionally a lady is married to a lord or a gentleman.

but First Lord comes off a bit suspect.

The First Gentleman of the USA is a bit better.

"First Husband" indicates the novelty of the situation as well...
