Soy is making kids 'gay'

There's a slow poison out there that's severely damaging our children and threatening to tear apart our culture. The ironic part is, it's a "health food," one of our most popular.

Now, I'm a health-food guy, a fanatic who seldom allows anything into his kitchen unless it's organic. I state my bias here just so you'll know I'm not anti-health food.

The dangerous food I'm speaking of is soy. Soybean products are feminizing, and they're all over the place. You can hardly escape them anymore.

Someone doesn't have all his facts straight.  (no pun intended)

[LordKAT]

Definitely needs to learn a few things.

First fluoridation, and now soy? Those Commies have really got it out for our precious bodily fluids.

[Alyx.]

Soy has THAT much estrogen in it?

Can I haz sum soy nowz?

[Mister]

Soy has a TON of estrogen in it.  It's also one of the most frequently genetically modified crops and a big culprit in rain forest destruction.

[Hazumu]

So, are Japanese like totally immune to the effects of soy?  They eat a LOT of soy products (My landlady has cooked up a dinner where a third of the meal was a block of tofu with seasoning and ponzu (soy based) sauce on top.

If Japan is full of gay people, I haven't been able to find them...

They are all on the down low.  All I know is that I didn't scrape and claw my way to the top of the food chain to eat stuff that has little to no taste.

Just out of curiousity, what plant has a ton of testosterone in it?

Please pass the tofu/yam casserole

Un-American! You probably shun the rock-hard GMO tomatoes, microwaveable pizzas, fast-food chain hamburgers, prepackaged boneless, skinless Tyson chicken breasts, and most other "foods" that every Real American (TM) enjoys!

I remember reading, I think in illustrated science;

Processed soy contains estrogen like chemicals that act like estrogen in the human body. The more processed the soy is, the more estrogen-like chems there appear to be.
This apparently makes the processed soy also increase chances of certain types of cancer, especially in women.
Children who are exposed to soy from conception are less likely to be affected by it.

That being said.. maybe it explains why Asian men aren't all that well hung?

[LordKAT]

phytoestrogens and isoflavanes if i spelled them right. they do act like estrogens to a point and the cancer cause or effect is still unknown since study results show a sometimes good effect especially if given before getting cancer but other studies show a negative effect.


I think it is the general rule, all things in moderation.

is there any evidence that Asian men are statistically 'deprived'?

Just wondering. I don't think all asians eat soy.
