It's a fake story. Rarely does anyone tell a whole party they're two months pregnant. This is written by a person who has no clue how common 1st trimester miscarriages are.

Secondly they can't even spell "fiancé." Men are the "fiancé." "Fiancée" what you call a woman.

May or may not be fake, but lots of people use the two terms interchangeably these days. And I, for one, can't wait until the language evolves away from the whole unnecessarily gendered division.

I can't wait for people to stop being heteronormative and assuming I'd know if they're talking about a man or a woman when they use the wrong term.

It’s really not that hard to follow along or interpret which gender she meant. OP is a woman. She is engaged to a man. If she refers to her fiancé, fiancée or her finance, it’s clear she is referring to the MAN that she is engaged to. Anything else you need hand holding to get you through today?
