I read a considerable amount of feminist literature in the late 1970s / early 1980s which bridged into theoretical lesbian books via Shulamith Firestone.
Even then, lesbians were dreaming about eliminating men from reproduction, initially just by-passing sex through artificial insemination but looking hopefully ahead to future technologies.
The other main topic was ensuring that lesbian couples conceived daughters. The research cited in your article is consistent with the techniques and practices recommended in these pioneering lesbian manifestos.
The other one, which is consistent with research you cite, is the role of sexual arousal in determining whether a boy or girl is conceived. Apparently, it was thought back then that a woman’s vagina tends to be a slightly acidic environment (conducive to girl-producing sperm, which is slower but hardier). As a woman approaches orgasm, however, this lesbian research suggested that her vagina becomes progressively more alkaline, which is a more benign environment and facilitates the success of the speedier but less hardy male-producing sperm.
In the lesbian literature, the authors took comfort from the fact that the amateurish turkey baster techniques for conceiving a baby without submitting to sexual intercourse with a man were highly unlikely to arouse a woman, making the chances of successfully conceiving a girl more likely.
Are you aware of any research that bolsters this claim?
Haha, I had no idea there was such a thing. If we are to take that to conceive a boy requires a more nuanced and energetic environment, then I can completely agree with the last paragraph in that sex lacking optimism. love, and vigor would signal of unfavorable circumstances, an environment where a girl would have higher rates of survival.
The dietary ratio of sodium to potassium is seldom talked about because the former's ability to lower adrenaline seems to be at the spotlight for now, but potassium is an important mineral in that it exhibits similar effects to insulin and has been used therapeutically to treat diabetes. It's unfortunate that sweet, ripe fruit is such a rarity nowadays.

Do you supplement with potassium?
It's mostly found in ripe fruit???
