What is the politically correct term for postman?

There isn't really a "politically correct" term for postman. The term itself isn't inherently offensive or outdated.

However, depending on the context, you might use some alternatives:

* Mail carrier: This is a more neutral and common alternative.

* Letter carrier: This is a more specific term if the person primarily delivers letters.

* Postal worker: This is a broader term that encompasses various roles within the postal service.

Ultimately, the best term to use depends on the specific situation and your audience. If you're unsure, it's always safe to err on the side of being respectful and using a neutral term like "mail carrier."
