think about it.
add an apostrophe to Mrs = Mr’s.
think about it.and then go throw up.
Actually, that’s entirely incorrect.
For men, in the UK and in other English-speaking countries, Master is used for boys under 18, e.g. Master John Smith. When he becomes a man, he gets the title Mister.
The women’s title structure is similarly designed. Miss refers to a girl typically where Mrs (short for Mistress, the female equivalent of Mister, not Mister’s as you suggest) is for a married woman. In the early 20th century however, Ms was re-introduced specifically to give unmarried women a title that wasn’t as insulting as calling an adult woman Miss or an unmarried one Mrs.
Today, Ms is usually used by adult women of married, unmarried, or divorced status and has become a generic term which is safe to use if unsure about her preferred title.
Next time, fact check before you go on the offensive. There are really worthy causes out there which need help and attention but historically inaccurate styles of address isn’t really one of them.
