Is there a widespread phenomenon of calling women something other than their name? 403Forbidden Jan 2016 #8

Historically? Yes. Didn't even know that was up for debate. NCTraveler Jan 2016 #10

I personally have not witnessed that phenomenon in my professional or leisure related encounters. 403Forbidden Jan 2016 #11

Some people took offense that Andrea Mitchell was called Andrea Greenspan. We've done that here for DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #16

I must be really dense, 'cause I don't really see the tie in with Chelsea Manning PersonNumber503602 Jan 2016 #30

I don't either. I see it as some people being upset and trying to gin up some rage. DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #34

Just up thread you fully agree with me. Not so much now. lol. nt. NCTraveler Jan 2016 #22

They're doing it to make sure people know she's the wife of the former Fed chariman. DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #35

That is called defining a woman by way of her husband and is very transparent. nt. NCTraveler Jan 2016 #37

Convicted traitor Manning. pintobean Jan 2016 #38

How did DU respond to Manning's name change? Not very well. In a thread about calling her Chelsea Bluenorthwest Jan 2016 #39

I'd appreciate your take on this. DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #40
