Clearly, we need to bifurcate the employees into males and females to proceed. 
> The number of women who like at least 2 out of 3 preferences are 65
>  55 Women only like Italian
> Overall 25 employees like only Chinese out of which 40% are male. Thus 10 male and 15 female employees only like Chinese
> Number of Employees liking only Continental is the same as the number of women liking only Italian = 55. Thus 25 are female and 30 are male

Let the total number of females be F. Then the number of females who do not like any of the 3 options = 0.2F.
Total number of Female = Females who like none + Females who like exactly one+ Female who like atleast 2
F = 0.2F + 15+25+55+65 or 0.8F = 160. Thus F = 200. Females who like none of the option = 0.2F = 40
Thus  number of male employees who did not like any of the 3 option = 20 which is also equal to number of females liking all 3 options.

> 175 of the employees like exactly one of the 3 options. Thus number of males liking only Italian = 175-(10+30+15+25+55) = 40
> Total number of male employees = 7 times the number of males liking only continental = 210
> Number of male employees like only Italian is same the number of male liking Chinese and Continental but not Italian = 40
Given that 100 male employees like Chinese. Number of male liking both  continental and Italian and not Chinese = 210-(100+30+40+20) = 20

Understanding the Given Information:
- Number of male employees liking none of the options = Number of female employees liking all three options
- 175 employees like exactly one of the 3 options
- Number of women who like at least 2 out of 3 preferences = 65
- Total number of male employees = 7 times the number of male employees who like only Continental
- 55 Women only like Italian
- 25 employees like only Chinese, 40% of them are male
- Number of male employees liking only Italian = Number of male liking Chinese and Continental but not Italian
- 20% of female employees do not like any of the options, which is double the number of male employees who do not like any of the options
- Number of employees liking only Continental = Number of women liking only Italian, and number of male employees liking only Continental = 30

Solving for the Number of Male Employees who like both Continental and Italian but not Chinese:
Given that 100 male employees like Chinese, we can deduce the following:
- Number of male employees who like exactly one of the options = 175 - 100 = 75
- Number of male employees who like only Continental = 75 / (1 + 0.4 + x) where x is the number of male employees liking both Continental and Italian but not Chinese
- From the statement "Number of male employees liking only Italian = Number of male liking Chinese and Continental but not Italian", we can infer that the number of males liking only Italian is the same as the number of males liking both Continental and Italian but not Chinese
- Therefore, the number of male employees liking only Italian = x
- Since the number of male employees liking only Continental is 30, we have: 30 = 75 / (1 + 0.4 + x)
- Solving the above equation, we get x = 20
Therefore, the number of male employees who like both Continental and Italian but not Chinese is 20. Hence, the correct answer is option C.
