President Wright is NOT PC

I’ve decided that President Wright’s online biography at the Dartmouth website is not PC.

The last line reads:

President Wright is married to Susan DeBevoise Wright. He has two sons, a daughter and five grandchildren.

How dare he allow this?–Distinguishing between sons and daughters? Why not say “children” or “adult children”?

It’s implied heterosexism. It ignores the social construction of gender.

…Okay, I don’t really believe any of this. But I betcha there are those out there who would. Not many. But then again, they’re probably in our own backyards on American college campuses.
