I just had to explain to someone in the office that "Ms" was created to have a title for women that did not indicate their marital status. They thought it was merely a contraction for "Miss".

Perhaps there are so many women in PR and marketing, not because it's a "soft", verbal skill, but because the natureof being female is a life of self-marketing anyway, whether we wish it or not.

I have a lot more to say about this, in a more personal vein, that I will hopefully get to tonight.

Uggh, this reminds me my coworker seriously thought only divorced women used "Ms." and will only call women younger than 40 "Miss." ARRRRGH. I can't even begin to describe my frustration with him.
