In 2016 it was the other way around, a lot of closeted people swung the vote. Thanks Hilary.

I think what you mean to say is "fast food" comes from America.

"In the mid-1700s, “The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy” by Hannah Glasse carried a “Hamburgh sausages” recipe, which was served on toasted bread. In Germany, a meat patty on bread called Rundstück Warm was popular by at least 1869."

Per Debretts, it has been this way since at least the 1700s, not an "American" thing as you suggest. I'm starting to think this is just another social issue used to divide America, ie propaganda used to control people. And if it is purely preference in etiquette, what are you complaining about? The person sending the letter are allowed to exercise their etiquette preferences as well, right? Or do you also want to control people? Is this all just the fascists on the right vs the facisists on the left? This is how people like Trump rise to populisim, and how freedom and democracy die.

Absolutely disgusting rhetoric you are pushing. My wife is my partner, and vice versa. The prefix works in both directions, with either my surname or my wife's surname, or even my wife's maiden name. You are whitewashing slavery with you comment and should be ashamed of yourself!

Absolutely wrong, this is how the language works. I am my wife's Mr as well, even with her maiden name.

Absolutely not, it applies in either direction, universally. I am Mr (wife) (wife's maiden name), this is how the language works. Why is this offensive to YOU?

Yes, it is actually!
