    why not use First Gentleman?

    Generally, jokes aren’t funny when you convolute them with a distracting term that people don’t know.

    Kamala Harris’ husband was Second Gentleman and would have been first if she had won

    This is probably the second time I’ve read that term in 4 years. Still had to think about what it meant. I am getting the impression you don’t make a lot of jokes or find them as vital as I do. I say that because I wrote several paragraphs about jokes, why they are important, and why I think it’s bad if people stop making them. At no point did you respond to a word of that, and here I see you prioritizing “being PC” over a joke landing at all.
