Top Conservative News Site Says Soy Products Make You Gay
From: America Blog.com

This isn't just some goofy fringe news site. It's WorldNetDaily (which we affectionately refer to as WingNutDaily), a site that all the right-wing pundits use as a source for their daily vitriol. Here's an excerpt:
There's a slow poison out there that's severely damaging our children and threatening to tear apart our culture....

The dangerous food I'm speaking of is soy. Soybean products are feminizing, and they're all over the place....

Unfortunately, when you eat or drink a lot of soy stuff, you're also getting substantial quantities of estrogens.

Estrogens are female hormones. If you're a woman, you're flooding your system with a substance it can't handle in surplus. If you're a man, you're suppressing your masculinity and stimulating your "female side," physically and mentally....

Soy is feminizing, and commonly leads to a decrease in the size of the penis, sexual confusion and homosexuality. That's why most of the medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality must fall upon the rise in soy formula and other soy products.
Okay, someone needs to Google the goof who wrote this. I suspect it could be fun.
James Rutz is chairman of Megashift Ministries and founder-chairman of Open Church Ministries. He is the author of "MEGASHIFT: Igniting Spiritual Power," and, most recently, "The Meaning of Life."

1. Eating soy decreases the size of the wang? Drat...
I've eaten soy for years. Maybe my tape measure was wrong 7 years ago, but I could have sworn I'd lost 8 of my original 15 inches. :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes:

7. Soybean products are "femanizing" huh? I had no idea
femininity has anything to do with being gay.

I know I've never had anyone come up to me and say, "Geez, you sure look effeminate....no wonder you're gay." :eyes:

8. Hormones won't change penis size.
Edited on Tue Dec-12-06 07:34 PM by Kelly Rupert
Testes size, yes, but not penis size. If you could alter the penis with hormones, then Pfizer wouldn't ever have to develop another drug. And I'd buy stock in wheelbarrows.

Edit: And are conservatives going to start complaining about hormones in beef now? Or is it just the hormones that give you the Gay?

11. I've been drinking/eating soy products for years and I'll kick 'yer ass if you pop off to me....
Well, Ok.. for anyone that actually "reads" my posts, you know I don't do the macho, kicking-ass, thing by choice....even if I am from Texas.

That aside, unless you are a nursing calf, there is no need to drink "cow" milk. For me it was initially a personal choice because "regular cow milk" caused health problems. Once I saw "how" that milk was produced it became a conviction that I would not support such a brutal industry.

Beyond all the personal reasons and back to the OP... there are no "hormones" in soy. Its a frigging plant. There are however hormones in "cow milk" which is why pre-teen girls look to be 18 and... and....and... you get my point. Its not natural.

So my only question is show me how a "plant" food delivers either male or female "hormones"... and then you can color me surprised.

Until then, tell them to shut up with their "junk" science and go fuck their cousin.

15. Dumasses! Beef is filled with Feminizing Estrogen-Type
hormones.

Whadda they think they're getting Testosterone with that all Beef? :sarcasm:

Sounds like a sales ploy by the Beef Industry.

17. I was worried about this I have to confess
Edited on Tue Dec-12-06 08:37 PM by kenny blankenship
until I realized that "eating dick" counteracted any possible effect from soy. (If you want testosterone, go to the source) Since then I've been happy.

18. Tell that to the Chinese.
The soy bean and its products have been an important part of their diet for millenia.

21. Fermented soy
Edited on Tue Dec-12-06 10:58 PM by Mojorabbit
There is a lot of info out there on possible bad effects from eating soy. The chinese used mostly fermented soy and in small amts. We drink soy milk by the glassful in this country. I think most soy grown here is GM. I don't think it has the ability to feminize anyone and the article's claims are ridiculous but I eat it spaingly. There is lot's of info on the net about it. I researched it years ago but I can't remember why and I was surprised at what I learned.
Also you can see what it is doing to small farms

19. A billion Chinese might beg to differ
Doesn't seem to have hurt their population growth any.

Nutjobs.

I'm a lot more worried about growth hormones in our meat and poultry supply. I wish I'd known about THAT and had a readily-available alternate source when my kids were growing up.
