3 Women 3 Ways

POTATOE, POTAHTO- DOES IT REALLY MATTER HOW YOU SAY IT? Remember when we had firemen and man hole covers?  Think those days are over?  Well think again!  Language, words and what we say has all sorts of power; power that can influence social attitudes and even career expectations.  If you  thought the word war was won 30 years ago, think again.
