Sure, just call them out for the right thing. It's interesting that you seem deeply committed to getting the gender of people correct, and good for you for doing so, but you seem to have no problem at all attributing the wrong intentions (ill will rather than laziness) to 6 different news organizations because "call…

Sure, but it's not ill will. You call it being lazy, they call it being expedient. Gotta get those internet hits before the other guys do.

False dichotomy. We could also assume that, out of expediency, they didn't spend a ton of time sitting around thinking about whether to respect it or not, that they went with the male pronoun mostly because they HAD been going with it.

But you're assuming that A) They feel there is something to be unsure about, which I can assure you many of them do not feel. B) That they are identical to you in the respect that if they felt unsure they would know where to look it up and would do so expediently (while trying to be the first to publish a story sure…

How do you know they disregarded it on purpose?

There are also rules written in the bible. Personally, I've never read the bible, so when I eat shellfish I'm not intentionally flouting the bible and it's rules, I just can't be bothered to read it. I imagine the same is true for people writing copy for these news outlets. Do you imagine everyone reads the style…

Yes, that's the only explanation. Like lesbians, the only explanation is they're man hating shrews. Or women, the only explanation is they're the weaker sex. Keep it up, maybe it will be gender equality when you become as dismissive as them.

Lot of hate here. Apparently men are all converting, lesbian hating hyper religious dudes looking to be assholes. Or their complete idiots thinking they can turn lesbians straight. But it must be one of those bad things, since guys are such assholes.

Different people use different definitions. Thus, they can disagree.

So we should start splicing the bioluminescence gene into children now, right?

So Deadspin is admitting their allegiance with Satan?

This Ray Lewis hate would be tolerable except for the complete lack of hate for similar people. You seem to be sticking to the facts with that Crabtree kid.

Right. Better we take the ex-convicts and insane people we were recruiting during the Iraq war when we lowered the standards through the floor and leave women in the kitchen. Who would you rather have weapons training, a woman or an ex-convict? I think the choice is clear.

I think and hope you're right.

It will be interesting to see if this helps or increases the sexism in military promotions.

Wow.... first the article about weed that contradicts itself, now crying in space. Is it Women of Science Week already?

Best part of this article is how the last sentence completely contradicts the title.

Sleeping problems? Try cooling your brain down.

Sometimes people who aren't found guilty by the courts....
