Thread Name: BS: Non-gender-related pronoun
Subject: RE: BS: Non-gender-related pronoun
Having grown up in the South, where every boy's middle name is Bob and every girl's middle name (including my sister) is Sue, I often call people Theirname-Bob. For a while, my children and I were calling each other "Ariel Bob," "Austin Bob" and "Mommy Bob." Now I have a dog Bob, whom I call Bob Bob and a big dog who is Fresa Bob.

I think Bubba Sue is simply wonderful and I will steal that -- although I'm not certain presently how, precisely, I might use it.
