Presenter Anni Ihamäki repeatedly uses a word that is considered contradictory in the world when presenting the properties of this summer’s Housing Fair in Oulu, which has already ended. Villa & shout at the Housing Fair –the program can be seen today on Nelose.

In the stories of Ihamäki, the main bedroom is sometimes called master bedroom in English. The expression has been questionable in the world for years. He has written about problematic issues, among other things House Beautiful -publication. It says the term is problematic because it is historically associated with slavery and implies dominance and ownership. The association with a white plantation owner who owns a dark-skinned slave labor does not belong in today’s master bedroom.

In the episodes that can be seen on Nelose today, we admire, among other things, such a master bedroom. Elle Laitila

on Business Insider on the other hand, the importance of inclusion and systemic racism, which often goes unnoticed, have been highlighted. It can flourish, for example, precisely in old word choices and sayings. We want to take diversity into account more clearly than before.

The issue also came up in our presentation this summer Renovation for money in the program. The judges announced that they would stop using both the master bedroom and the master ensuite. The latter refers to the bathroom attached to the master bedroom. by Shaynna Blaze, by Darren Palmer and by Marty Fox the words have a nasty undertone of sexism and colonialism. They used the synonym main bedroom throughout the production season. Alongside it, you could also prefer the primary bedroom, if for some reason the Finnish-speaking master bedroom does not suit your taste.
