Tricky
This and similar definitions are tricky if we want to be accurate (perhaps over-pedantically so?). The definition at the time I write this is:
- One's mother's husband other than one's father
If my mother married John Smith before I was born, then left him, without divorce, for Bill Bloggs, and I was born of this union, then the given definition would make John Smith my stepfather. ----Old Comment, 213.208.107.91, December 19, 2004
