Closed Remove 'Mrs' and 'Miss' on all government docs & forms and use only 'Ms' instead

Closed on

Why is it that women designate their marital status when men don't? It's 2018, this indirect sexism shouldn't be supported by the UK government. 'Miss' and 'Mrs' have no place in this era of equality, let's have them replaced by one single designation 'Ms'; just like 'Mr' and the now disused 'Mstr'.
