I don’t know how old this Joe Rogan clip is, but if I was running Starbucks, I would immediately circulate a company-wide advisory that under no circumstance will ANY Starbucks employee suggest to ANY customer that the terms “wife” or “husband” are somehow incorrect or inadvisable and that the term “partner” (which is primarily a gay relationship term) is preferable. Failing to respect this rule, I would emphasize, is a firing offense.
