After the support meeting last night, we retired to a TG/TS friendly bar across the street.  While discussing the current sorry state of world affairs, we stumbled on an idea that just might bring world peace if fully implemented.

What if all drinking water contained estrogen and T-blockers?...

Well...  If you've seen Doctor Strangelove, you might have a good idea of the sort of thing that may happen as a result of that.  Not flouridation, but similar!   ;)

yes that's right Erica, Gen. Buck Turgidson would SO not approve. (for those not hip to the flick, Buck was VERY VERY concerned about his 'bodily fluids' being a target of certain elements tampering with the water supply...)

A minor correction; it was General Jack D. Ripper (played by Sterling Hayden) who was so concerned with his "purity of essence". Buck Turgidson was the hawkish warroom staffer played by George C. Scott.

From one who watches the movie religiously every six months... ;D

shows I have not seen it in some time (will watch it tonite now I'm reminded of it). I can remember now, Peter Sellers' "yes, Jack old boy" I guess it's that the name "Turgidson" is so congruent with those fluids...

For the US, you may have to add it to soda pop as well.  There's a lot of people who drink very little water.

World peace that way?  Surely you jest.  The biggest bunch of cheating, violent soccer players that had to be reffed was the girl's league.  They were downright devious.

Lost that is true :)

My son used to play junior rugby and in that, girls were allowed to play as long as they had not reached puberty.

Any match between young boys & girls - the girls would win.  They take direction (follow instructions and dont go off doing their own thing at the expense of team play).
They possess a savagery and determination that young boys do not possess.  And yes, a deviousness, young boys are no match.
Of course they tend to lose this when puberty kicks in and hormones start to flow
