    So what about a title like “Why are men buying motorcycles?”

    It doesn’t mean that all men are buying motorcycles, just that enough are to make it a noticeable trend.

    You don’t need the word “some”. That’s the defaul. “All” is the special case that needs to be explicitly indicated.

      I’d dislike that headline, too, but it’s not as awful as this one because it’s not painting men in a bad light
