You may have come across this tweet (which is chopped off as shown here). It refers to a Ted Talk (which I couldn't find on quick Googling) and points out the frequent use of passive voice in how pregnancies or rape etc. are reported:
When I saw that tweet I felt that I must have written something about this. And, indeed, I did, in 2013 on rape, and several times, including here in 2013 and here in 2017, on pregnancy.
What's the point of this post? To show you that I'm usually about four years too early when it comes to the topics of the day. Also that I won (I can't be perfect all the time!).
