    Anyone else find it weird how articles often tend to add the parental status of the subject in the title?

      Only if it’s about a mother though.

        I guess being a mother is considered an important life achievement, while being a father is not.

      It’s been this way since the inception of the news paper. To sell papers they needed to get people invested in the subjects of the paper. That included giving information about the subject of the articles that other people might relate to. If you’re a mother you’re more likely to be inspired by a mom of 3 who went for a degree in science and ended up becoming a “Trebuchet Master”.

    Being “trebuchet master” without “Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics”… doubt

    I would, too. Which is the more exciting job? Unfortunately there probably isn’t much call for a trebuchet bombardment these days.

      Perhaps this should be decreed in a new Geneva convention as the only allowed long range missile system? That would make wars less deadly and more useful.

        Oh, I got that! Do you think the Brits will accept a foreigner from a place that wasn’t one of their colonies?
