Politically Correct

Needed to get renter's insurance... and when I was talking to the agent, he asked who, 18+, will be living with me.  Instinctively, I said, "Me, my spouse, and my two children."  (Spouse?! Why didn't I say wife?)

He replied back... "Ok... I have you... your (pause) spouse... and two minors."  

I guess... in the real world... my spouse isn't necessarily my wife.  My spouse, even if I have a man's voice... could be my husband.  Go figure.
