   @alice I would be very grateful if anyone could share their experiences of gendered expectations around food/drink.

     @ttpphd @alice I read something the other day that I had never considered consciously: Diet Coke appeals mostly to women, so Coca-Cola came up with Coke Zero, which is more male-coded.

     @bentsukun @ttpphd @alice A pet peeve, the genderizing of EVERYTHING! Why, for example, must my choice of anti-perspirant require I affirm my gender? "Dry Idea" seemed sufficiently neutral for a long while, but the recent re-branding changed that. I still use it. One of the best products for shaving my head was also a "female" product, back when.
