The president's wife is called "first lady". If a woman gets elected president what will her husband be called

Question

I'm not trying to make a joke, it would be interesting to know.
.

Answer 1

Here's the kicker:

When a woman is elected president, her husband's title will in fact be "first gentleman".

If that woman's husband is a retired general, he may still be addressed as "General".

If he's a former cabinet secretary, he'll still be addressed as "Mr Secretary".

If he's a former senator, he'll still be addressed as "Senator".

And, yes, if he's a former president of the US, he'll still be addressed as "Mr President".

Answer 2

He would be refereed to as the First Gentleman. The Governor of Washington State is a woman and her husband is the first gentleman.

Answer 3

Probably the First Gentleman, First Man, or First Husband. Most likely, they will wait for what the first one wants to be called and they'll continue to use that. I'm thinking First Man is most likely.

Answer 4

I suppose the "First man" or the "First Gentleman of the United States"

I know in some countries, especially in Asia, they have that.

Answer 5

If Hillary Clinton wins it will be very confusing, because Bill Clinton is still referred to as President Clinton.

Answer 6

The first Gentleman is the correct phrase.

Answer 7

Yeah, I would have to agree that First Gentleman sounds appropriate.

Answer 8

Likely to be the "first gentleman"

Answer 9

Most likely "first gentleman"

Answer 10

I don't know for sure, but if you're referring to Hillary Clinton, then Bill would be the First Lady still.
