• Apparently what you mean is that you don't like it. There's nothing linguistically incorrect about it whatsoever. Ƿidsiþ 06:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
• There is a linguistic error. The origin of CHAIRMAN comes from Manager of the Chair, it is not genderised. Hence we have "Madam Chairman" and "Mister Chairman" This was researched by Toastmasters about a decade ago. John Maxwell 29 12 2012
