The United Nations has issued a list of terms it deems unacceptable, including ‘husband/wife’ and ‘boyfriend/girlfriend’, to be replaced with ‘spouse’ and ‘partner’ respectively, according to a meme generated by UN Women.

The list is an attempt to promote gender-neutral language. helping to “create a more equal world”, according to the UN.

Words such as boyfriend and girlfriend are being shunned by the UN, which is telling people to replace them with “neutral” words. Such suggestions include using “spouse” instead of “husband” or “wife” – “owner” instead of “landlord” – “family name” instead of “maiden name”; and more.

Twitter users particularly did not appreciate the UN’s newest free advice, as you can imagine, resulting in tens of thousands of replies, some quirky, some serious – but almost all opposing the UN’s stance.

    1. It really hurts my feelings that you would go so low and use a word like “Manner”. I don’t understand why you would be so inconsiderate and thoughtless, and I’m sure I’m not the only one hurting by reading such provocative and careless use of words.

      The world does not revolve around you!

      Before you do something careless like this again, please think before you just burst out crazy and hurtful words like that.. My day is completely ruined now!!

      Here is a list of some other words you should change or delete from your vocabulary as soon as possible.
      Get in line please!

  44. Aside from this innovation, Ethereum has also been working to reduce the energy requirements for transactions and mining to make it more environmentally friendly, which is one of the criticisms of cryptocurrency. It is the second largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation, and continues to grow. Ethereum was officially launched on July 30, 2015. The first trade took place on Aug. 7, 2015, at a price of $2.77 per ETH. Ether’s price hit an all-time high of $4,891.70 on Nov. 16, 2021. As rumors started bubbling online about FTX’s potential liquidity problems, market participants have become increasingly spooked, as reflected in the widespread sell-offs. With Ethereum caught in the crosshairs, many participants are wondering whether it’s all over for the crypto space. Read on to find out more.

    Later, Binance Smart Chain (BSC; now named BNB Smart Chain) was created and today, the BNB cryptocurrency exists on both BNB Chain as a BEP-2 token and BSC as a BEP-20 token. It’s also worth noting that BNB Chain consists of two chains: the EVM-compatible BSC, as well as BNB Beacon Chain (previously called Binance Chain), which covers governance, staking, and voting. “The new complaint from the SEC against Binance is a laundry list of charges laying out exactly the same claims that many in the Bitcoin and crypto communities have made against Changpeng Zhao and his companies for many years. These practices of Binance have essentially been open secrets, so no one who operates in the space will be surprised by any of the charges,” said Cory Klippsten, CEO of Swan Bitcoin, a bitcoin financial services company.

  57. No deposit spins at online casinos in the United States are of two types — with and without wagering requirements. The first type is offered by 99% of the projects: when you receive winnings in spins, the money is transferred first to the bonus account and is subject to wagering. 120 free spin for real money bonus is always a part of a bigger free spins bonus. Online casino players can enjoy 100 or 200 free spins offers by claiming bonuses from our favourite casinos such as Harrah’s (100 free spins) or Golden Nugget 200 Free Spins. A free spin is usually worth 0.10 EUR. You can compare their value in different casinos. Unsurprisingly, Slots.lv is the perfect place to find free spin offers. New players can use the “BESTCASINO125” promo code when they make their first deposit to get a 100% match bonus of up to $1,000 and 25 free spins on the immensely popular Golden Buffalo slot title.
