No. I wasn't blaming him at all. The terminology is too widespread to blame anyone for using it.
I was just saying that I understood your discomfort with it.
And perhaps, that once he understood your discomfort with it, and unless he had a particular reason he thought it was important for you to use it, that he might choose to use another word instead. Not only to be respectful, but also to help you hear his message without being distracted by the words.
