Almost everyone knows the meaning of Mr. Mrs and Miss. Mr is used before the names of men. Mrs is for married women and Miss is for single women. But what is Ms? For some time, businessmen in the United States have used Ms before a woman’s name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not. Today, however, many women prefer to use Ms rather than Mrs or Miss. The word Mr doesn’t tell us whether or not a man is married . Many women think this is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that it is not important for people to know whether they are married or not.
There are some problems with Ms, however. Not all women like it. Some like the older ways of doing things. Some find it difficult to pronounce. (Ms sounds like “miz”.) Generally, young women like it better than older women do. It is difficult to know whether or not Ms will be used by more American women in the future. What do you think of this change?
