The Devil's Food!

Yes, it's true! Soybeans are turning our children into homosexuals!

I just... I can't think of anything to say to that. It's so unbelievably stupid, I don't know where to begin.

Ah - that would explain why my skinny 13 year old son has 4 girlfriends, is 5'8" and has a mustache and more hair on his legs than his 40 yo father.

He was fed soy formula.

The plural of antecdote is not data.

Whats your opinion of estrogen-like chemical pollution?

I think it's outrageous and is the cause of premature puberty in girls and obesity in boys.

But I don't think soy formula causes homosexuality or feminization of male infants.

It does cause thyroid problems - I avoid the stuff myself.

Soy formula is full of estrogen-like chemicals. Stronger and in higher concentrations ones that are part of industrial pollution.

Why aren't you "outraged" by that? Because it's "natural" instead of coming from evil chemicla factories?
