Re: 'Actress'
Is it not down to the preference of the individual? Anyway 'actor' does not accurately portray their importance in the world. I refer to them as 'artiste'.finchman wrote:Women who act are now called Actors

What's your position re: Comedian vs Comedienne? Just pulling your leg. It's all fucking bollocks isn't it. Who give a fucking fuck. So fucking sick of this PC bullshit.

Doctress?
Teacheress?
Politicianess?
Solicitoress?
Directoress?
Linguistic habits change all the time. Big deal. I still say "actress" out of habit but don't care if someone says "actor" instead.

Queer is not PC.
Queer is an umbrella term for sexual and gender minorities that are not heterosexual or cisgender. Queer was originally used pejoratively against those with same-sex desires but, beginning in the late-1980s, queer scholars and activists began to reclaim the word.
