The headline in the tweet is literally, “Are cats inherently ‘sexy’? An investigation.” Didn’t Vox at one time claim to have the greatest thinkers or something like that? Who thought this was a good idea?

This will come as a shock to the Washington Post writer who was proudly raising her cats gender-neutral:

At least she had the sense to put “Don’t laugh” in her headline. Vox’s take is apparently not a joke either.

And all this time I've been referring to my male cat Spot as "Mr. Spot." I must have been misgendering my cats incorrectly or something. pic.twitter.com/WlK6d1InQs
