LOL!!!!! HAHAHA!!!!
This is absolutely pathetic! lol, I read the article and it was weird, lol. There are points about soy that have been made before and are old news, but the causing homosexuality thing is wild!! lolol.
Without touching on the extreme weirdness of the whole thing, you can't "make" people gay! The kinds of people you're attracted to is something that takes place in your unconscious mind, working with your hormones and such. If you like men, you like men! If you like women, you like women! Tofu isn't gonna make you attracted to someone else. Tofu is gonna give you a tasty snack and make you healthy, whether you're living that healthy life with a man or a woman.
I know plenty of people who eat tofu! I'm a vegan, for crying out loud, a huge part of my diet is soy! According to that article, I should have heart problems, be overweight, have breast cancer, and be attracted to women. Well sorry little article, but my heart's perfectly healthy, I'm actually underweight, my breasts are cancer-free, and I'm heterosexual. Looks like that theory's out the window!
lol, I think this theory is crazy! I wouldn't lose much sleep over it if I were you. Laugh it off and call it a day! lol.

I hestiate to click on the link cited above, with all the spamming links going on these days, but I venture a guess...
Tofu is made with soy, which has analogues to estrogen in it. Estrogen is the main female hormone. Although males produce small amounts of estrogen in their bodies as well, high levels of estrogen in a man can feminize him. In Japan, it is said, a woman gives her husband tofu to calm down his nature, if they have had enough children or if he has gotten too demanding at night. Doesn't make him gay, tho; more like neuters him.

Research can say anything it wants. You can say hamburgers make people gay if you wanted to. More research could also contradict the findings of the study.

The Japaneses could probably argue effectively against that theory.

It can't be proven because no one actually knows what's in tofu...

Okay, does that mean eating greasy burgers will make gay men straight?
