Well, he wasn't alive so he couldn't really confirm his pronouns, could he?
Y'know, I actually thought of that while I was typing -- to say that the body was one which was
outwardly male -- but figured ... Nah!
I recently read a book on the human skeleton and the author was so politically correct that he'd go out of his way to NOT to identify some ancient find as being male or female, only that it was from
someone who was
osteologically female even though he couldn't confirm what said person considered him/herself during his/her/their lifetime. And I'm thinking:
'Really, Dude?!!?'
The book wasn't particularly good anyway, and this sort of verbal gymnastics didn't help.

When good stories have bad headlines. VERY bad headlines.

You've got to be
actively trying to assemble a headline that's that bad, right?

How to Attract the Relationship You Really Want
Why you keep dating the same type of people and what to do about it
It isn't really the headline that got to me, but the fact that they went to Getty Images looking for a lede illustration and came back with what looks like a shot of a young adult kissing an 11-year-old in front of a natural disaster.

This one is up there with the old story about the guy trying to convince the judge that he wasn't responsible for setting his hotel bed on fire, that in fact the bed was already on fire
prior
to him getting into it. I mean, sure, we found this guy's remains inside a fucking alligator, but we've determined that he OD'd even before managing to somehow become a reptile snack.
So anyway, leave it to the NYDN to revive this dormant thread with:
NAKED GERMAN MAN CHASES DOWN FERAL HOG THAT STOLE HIS LAPTOP
I hate when that happens.
