Students at the London University are encouraged to stop using Christian centric terms

A London university has encouraged students to stop saying husband and wife as the terms do not include all relationships.

In a document published by the University of Greenwich in south-east London, staff and students are encouraged to "use terms that include all relationships."


The document says aims to "provide some helpful guidance for those who are creating policy documents or other publications."

It also encourages staff members to stop using "patronising terms" that may cause offence to a particular gender including "Girls, Ladies, Dear, Son, Love."

The University, which has 22,000 students have been told that “awfully good” is off-limits because it could confuse foreign students.

Minority group is off-limits as it could make non-white or foreign students feel an "inferior social position" and advises against "Christian name."

The University also calls on students to recognise and respect the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity.

It says: "Don´t use ‘straight’ as the opposite of ‘LGBTQ+’ (transgender people can be any sexual orientation, including straight)."

The University says: "It is important to recognise that what you have said could be extremely hurtful and you need to ­apologise for this.

“Also you should not act upset when apologising as you put the burden of emotional support on the victim.”

Former Armed Forces Minister Mark Francois told The Sun: "Yet again we see the march of woke bias through our academic institutions."

GB News has approached the University for comment.

Meanwhile, at London Metropolitan University, Students have been told not to use the term "illegal migrants" and to use the word "undocumented" instead.

The Uni has warned that the term is considered "dehumanising" and urged staff and students to avoid saying the words amid fears it could cause offence.
