Create a neutral title for women that doesn’t reveal their marital status.
F child and unmarried women=Miss
Mrs=married
Ms=divorced/widowed
M child=Master
Mr=?
I find it offensive that a woman’s name changes based on her marital status as if we move up the social hierarchy by marrying a man. It’s outright sexist, outdated and should be corrected to just 1 title.
