“soy infested calendar products” What does that mean?

Soy as in "soyftware". I've changed this to bloated as apparently some people think I'm some radicalised alt-right 4chan user for using this term.

> Soy as in "soyftware"

And that's supposed to mean what?

Bloated or over-complicated software, that's how it's used in my friend group anyway.

I've never heard this term at all.

“soy” = “badness” + right-wing culture war group identity signalling.

Yep, comes from “soyboy”, a pejorative for more feminine men. The term came about from soybeans having phytoestrogen.

I did not use the term in this context. I've never even heard of this until people pointing this out today. I just meant it as in bloated software. I don't live in America and English is not my first language.

I mean it's just true from the data that men's testosterone on average has cratered over the last couple generations. They shouldn't be consuming copious amounts of things to make that even worse

And therefor perjorative, victim-shaming language is just the way it has to be?
