Shouldn't you be calling her your "partner" or something by this point?

In French I call her "conjointe", Partner makes sound like I'm gay or something. I will continue to call her my girlfriend in english. Unless someone comes up with a term I like.

"Conjointe" is seldom used in France though it is found in the Académie Française dictionary. :smarty:
"Conjoint" for both sexes is somewhat common in bureaucratic lingo.   :nerd:

Conjoint...lol. Can't get rid of the image of siamese twins.

I like sambo. Should be adapted into English.

Whatever you want to call your girlfriend, congrats on the baby, GF. :hug:

You American darkies and your weird hangups.  Try growing up.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

You're right. It would be less weird if we would just forget about the past and embrace Swedish words for cohabitation. :huh:

It'd be less weird if you weren't always trying to play the victim.

I don't think I typically play the victim.

It makes sense in English too. Sambo- same abode.

You act like things are unacceptable because of the connotations they have for you vis-a-vis the whole black thing.

Also, you use Martinus as a stalking horse for gayness.

Fixed that for you.

Nah. I'm more than willing to spend my time in cosmopolitan cities. I don't really care what Joe Public thinks or how he acts.
