um, sure the woman is having to experience the pain of having a child. but i always thought it was sweet that a couple says 'we're having a baby.' they are in this together. i know that when i am pregnant, i would want my husband to be apart of it too. dont deny what i have to go through to have a child. but since a married couple becomes one, they take part in things together. so i dont think there is anything wrong with saying 'we're having a baby' just my two cents

I edited my post.
"We're having a baby" is less irritating than "We're pregnant".
If someone says, "We're pregnant", I expect to see 2 or more pregnant women standing in front of me, not a man and a woman.

And for FWIW: the people who use this term tend to be the smug marrieds (see Brigitte Jones' Diary)

How 'bout, "We're having a baby-- she's pregnant."

As of this morning I'm officially sick of the word "inclusion."

Much better! That'll work! :D

KappaKittyCat - Are you by any chance a teacher? Right now, I'm all about hating inclusion.

I'm going to add my 2 cents to the "we're pregnant" thing. I get the whole 'its cute cause we're married and it took 2 of us, yadda yadda yadda." But do you go "We gained 5lbs from the baby/ Our ankles are swollen today" how about---"We just got over a nasty yeast infection?" or "We're having our period this week" If you're going to claim the baby, claim everything that goes with it.

I have another thing I hate- ending a sentence in a preposition. Prime example: "wheres the party at?"
Its 'where is the party? or where is the party located?" every time I hear that song, I get angry!!!!:mad:

I don't like the phrase "make love with me." Maybe that sounds more mutual and inclusive than "make love to me," but I think the latter sounds better.

I think this really developed in the late eighties/early nineties.
I remember constantly saying things like "Where you going? Can I come with? :p

Airplane boarding terms are totally redundant and confusing (and I agree with George Carlin on this):
We will begin PRE-BOARDING (it is still boarding the plane)
The passengers are getting ON the plane (to quote George Carlin "I am getting in the IN the plane. Evel Knevil would get ON the plane")

THANK YOU!

I had a friend who said how much that expression peeved her...
She said it on a baby board and all hell broke loose! :rolleyes:

And it peeves me even more to hear a guy say that! It sounds kinda wussy to me! http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/...smiley-039.gif

If I ever said "We're PG", husband would look at me like I was nuts...

and so he should!

"We're expecting"-I'm cool with that!
"We're having a baby"-like that even better!
"We're Pregnant"-HELL NO

I HATE:

bone
hump
"bumping uglies"

~ Yeah, it really turns me on when a guy tells me he wants "to bone" :rolleyes:

I hate it when a guy tries to be sexy and seductive by telling you things like the above, or "I want to hump you". Ugh, no thanks! This is definitely a case where actions speak louder than words!!!

Nope, the drag queen must have a show in your honor mimicking u.
