London's Daily Mail outs gay caveman 5,000 years too late; reader not impressed

The story (via Joe.My.God, see bloglist) elicited the following comment:
Note to the Mail, what's the fun in outing someone when they've already been dead for thousands of years? Let us know when you've got something on a member of the government, a footballer or a pop group. Can't believe how screwed up your priorities are!

(By the way, no blog presented this story better than towleroad, where the headline was 'Buried This Way.')

Y-M-C-Cave: The skeleton was found in a Prague suburb with its head pointing eastwards and surrounded by domestic jugs - rituals only previously seen in female graves
