Re: if a man
I used to hate hearing my dad's wife being referred to as my mother, or stepmother if people were aware of our family circumstances. It was a natural assumption for people to make if we went away on holiday with my dad, his wife and her kids, but I always used to make sure to correct people, in that frosty way that only a teenager can, that she was not my mother, or my stepmother, I didn't live with her, and that my mum was alive and well at home.
