This might help me cut down my Coke Zero consumption. Thanks!

Can you suggest any reputable sources for keeping up to date with these best practices, from a consumer PoV?


They cited a study. If you disagree, please raise the bar, and either challenge the study, or cite something compelling.


> Also, this theory would suggest that eunuchs, self-identified men who voluntarily undergo gonad removal, would generally come to identify as women, but this is not the case; Similarly for men who have their testosterone suppressed as part of cancer treatment.

Could that be explained by the unfortunate lack of trans acceptance?


Maybe, but I find that unlikely, particularly for eunuchs; Being a Eunuch is arguably more socially stigmatised than being a transsexual.


Why is the "West" in quotes? Typically authors use that to refer to a phrase they're replying to, but parent comment doesn't mention that.

Alternatively, quotes are sometimes used in a dismissive manner, but it would be unusual for an author to be dismissive of a word and yet find value in introducing it into a conversation.
