Gender Bia: Dr, Pepper is for Men. For men only. Men Only.

Dr. Pepper is market-testing a new product, Dr Pepper 10, which is a 10-calorie (per 12 ounces) soda aimed at men aged 25-34. The problem the company faces is how to market a diet product to men, given the association of dieting with femininity. Dr. Pepper has apparently decided to face this challenge head on and make it very, very clear who this product is and isn’t meant for.
