Am I the only one who thinks adding "Ms." before her name every time it is mentioned is a ridiculous journaling practice? It just screams "this executive is a woman, evaluate her through that lens." If "Michael Mayer" was the CEO of Yahoo instead of "Marissa Mayer," they would've said "Mayer," not "Mr. Mayer."

No, the NYT would have said Mr. Mayer. It's part of their style guide.
