Chicks On The Right – This morning I woke up to a hilarious statement by AP Stylebook. The latest target of woke progressive lunacy is apparently the term “mistress.”
According to AP Stylebook,
“Don’t use the term mistress for a woman who is in a long-term sexual relationship with, and is financially supported by, a man who is married to someone else. Instead, use an alternative like companion, friend or lover on first reference and provide additional details later.”Now, I’m an Oxford comma gal, so I have a bone to pick with their use of commas in this statement, but that’s beside the point. Additionally, I can’t help but wonder which powerful “mistress” was sufficiently offended by the term that they persuaded the AP to make a statement (which they say was originally issued in previous years), but that’s also not the point. Or maybe it was a powerful man who was caught with a “friend” and they wanted to get ahead of the narrative, but that’s not the point either.
The point is, we apparently need to manipulate language so as to avoid potentially offending mistresses by calling them mistresses.

Take a page from the Queen; how about “consort”?
A better term than Mistress would be Whore.
Side piece is timeless.
Yea, get with it: Cum Dumpster is so yesterday?
Willy Brown’s friend.
I love word games, lets play without a thesaurus…
Paramour?
Heels up Whore?
The other woman?
Piece of shit?
Home breaker?
Kamala Harris?
Dr (LMAO) Jill Biden?
Do these assholes have nothing else better to do than to go through a dictinonary, page by page, looking for words that offend them? Eat a bag of dicks all of you liberals.

Trust me on this, it is among the least disgusting of offensive of their filthy habits
JDHasty – I know, brother. As the days go by, I feel my blood boil just a tiny bit more each and every day.
And can we bring back the edit function??
Why not just call them what they are, fuck buddies. I had no clue what they were until a few years ago and one of my kids had to explain it to me. Call me old fashioned but we used to call mistresses whores or worse. And the term for extramarital sex was shacking up.
I suppose “girlfriend” will be next to be offensive because “women” aren’t “girls” and extra-curricular sex partners aren’t necessarily even female.
I vote for “paramour”. Because it’s gender-neutral and the left hates it but can’t find an argument against it.
I like what Stewie called them; sack-bellied strumpet.
A side piece of ass!
There’s this whore in my ward who ran for alderman had lawn signs everywhere referring to her as “alderperson” and referred to herself as such all the way up till the election was over. Unfortunately she won and now calls herself alderman.
All mistresses call themselves mistress. Otherwise no one would know what the hell they are talking about.
Fuck these people. How about we discourage the use of the term ‘whore’ and call them ‘kamalas’?
As Sarah Hoyt said, mistress is the perfect word for what goes on between a mister and a mattress.
Stylebook? Sounds stupid which explains the story.
Just don’t call me late for dinner.
She’s called a whore. The end.
Sometimes, dead whore.
There’s a term….I can’t quite remember….but I believe it ends in “-bucket”
Sidepiece.

And my personal favorite. BABYSITTER
Mistress is a ‘cover term’ for whore, slut or prostitute,
Pretty much to the same extent that a ‘lush’ is really an alcoholic, sot or drunkard.

And for our dictionary-impaired friends, “Ho” is universally recognized.
Notice everything the left wants to come to pass is pure unadulterated will against God.
