New Delhi – “Unmarried woman” instead of “old maid”: A new handbook aims to encourage judges in India to use less sexist language. Among other things, the book is intended to suggest alternatives for previously used expressions, as reported by the Indian media. In the future, the judges should only use the word “woman” instead of “career woman”, “seductress”, “woman with free morals” and other sometimes crude expletives.
