Denise:
Having led a former military life, I, too, like your version better
because of the acronym, but wonder if SEX isn't the reason behind MOWOG.
Just as "TVR" appears a little more SEXY than "TW" (admittedly, just a very
little more), I can only assume that someone thought "MOWOG" was a little
more SEXY and appealing than "MWM". Go Figure.
