Presidents Category

Question

In anticipation of possibly our next presidential election shouldn't we convert the category Wives of US Presidents to Spouses of US Presidents.  I'm just saying ...

Answer 1

Forward thinking and a good gender neutral approach for the future! We do have history to contend with and it seems like changing wives for spouses is sort of revisionist. I would prefer wives, husbands, or partners, rather than a single category.

I had wanted to ask if it is possible to convert a category after the fact too.

Answer 2

I had been thinking the same thing! I think we should change it. Even if we don't get Hillary, hopefully there will eventually be a president with a husband, and I think they should all go in the same category.
