But the articles title just says "men" and "women" not "straight/heterosexual men/women". Seems like a more accurate title would include the fact since you're talking about people in relation to their sexual partners.

It's a title. If you want full details, read the article.

Hackernews: this title is clickbait and offends me!

Also Hackernews: Why would you expect this article's title to explain what it's about?!

My point: Unclear title is unclear and misleading, and striving for clarity of language isn't a bad thing. If you're going to talk about science, be more clear or expect to be called out on your bad titles.
