[net.women] Ms, who cares?

Right: maritial status should not be important in your public/working environ.
Wrong: bank, phone co., credit card co., etc. don't care.  They DO care. 

Check it out folks.  Discrimination is alive and well and living in middle 
America.

Yes, the bank, credit cards, etc. do care about your marital status.
Therefore they should request it in black and white so that *you*
know that it matters.
