    We have that situation over here in Germany with Angela Merkel being first female Chancellor. See, we don't even have a word for that :o). Her husband is referred to as Herr Merkel, Mr. Merkel. Probably the female President's hubby will be called Mr. Clinton also. In that case maybe President Hillary Clinton with her husband former Preisdent Clinton. Successful clan, huh?

    I don't think they will call the guy the first gentleman. Probably just Mr. something. Haha, good question though.

    The First Husband,maybe?

    Or just "Bill"?
