I used to be the digital editor at a small suburban newspaper and the things people would say in the comments with their full government names and sometimes their *work* email address…. (The latter of which was only visible on the back end but still!)

Older gay men built their own hockey fandom. Then came 'Heated Rivalry.' The hit show is an unexpected invitation for some older gay hockey fans to reflect on love, acceptance and coming out.

Most Heated Rivalry coverage has been focused on what young people, particularly younger straight women, think. I cover aging and decided to ask older gay men about their thoughts.

I found: A founder of what may have been the first gay hockey blog, a wedding cake shaped like a Zamboni and more.

We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing "the" labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated. Instead, use wording such as people with mental illnesses. And use these descriptions only when clearly relevant.

The use of "the French" in this tweet by @AP was inappropriate and has caused unintended offense. An updated tweet is upcoming.
