The Houston Association of Realtors will replace “master” bedroom with “primary” bedroom.

This topic is currently being debated across the real estate industry, and the national standards organization for MLSs will be considering a similar change that could make ‘primary’ the new standard nationally,

I did not realize the nascent trauma from this nomenclature. But now that the HAR has made their decisions public, I look at my home through a new lens. Just kidding.

Don’t get me wrong, I get that a society gives power to words. I am simply skeptical concerning how this change will prove effective in undermining the binary or the patriarchy. Only time will tell.
