No, it's a master bedroom. Says so right on the blueprints. I'll go with what the person who designed the house calls it.
This story/insanity broke a couple of months ago. Independently, it's just silly. Taken in full context, with all the other instances of definitions being manipulated and fictitious connotations being added, it's a very, very serious problem.
I am shocked it lasted this long. Master evokes a slave. 10 years ago I was wondering when realtors would quit calling it the Master Bedroom. I am really shocked it took this long to kill the term.
I assumed they would use main bedroom or best bedroom or prime bedroom. Some such neutral word. Owners suite is an idiotic term.
It will always be "master bedroom" to me. I am not changing.
Words matter. Unfortunately, the word Owner also conjures up images of slavery and Jim crow era discrimination.
Which makes this all ridiculous! Slave sellers and owners also breathed air and drank water. Should we all stop doing that because someone who did something bad in that past did those things?
Been that way in some areas for a long time. This predates last year.
