Soy is making kids 'gay'?

Question

Hi, I just thought I would post an article from World Nut Daily to make you all laugh for the holidays.


-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.

have nothing against an occasional soy snack. Soy is nutritious and contains lots of good things. 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.

In fetal development, the default is being female. All humans (even in old age) tend toward femininity. The main thing that keeps men from diverging into the female pattern is testosterone, and testosterone is suppressed by an excess of estrogen.

If you're a grownup, you're already developed, and you're able to fight off some of the damaging effects of soy. Babies aren't so fortunate. Research is now showing that when you feed your baby soy formula, you're giving him or her the equivalent of five birth control pills a day. A baby's endocrine system just can't cope with that kind of massive assault, so some damage is inevitable. At the extreme, the damage can be fatal.

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. (Most babies are bottle-fed during some part of their infancy, and one-fourth of them are getting soy milk!) Homosexuals often argue that their homosexuality is inborn because "I can't remember a time when I wasn't homosexual." No, homosexuality is always deviant. But now many of them can truthfully say that they can't remember a time when excess estrogen wasn't influencing them.

Doctors used to hope soy would reduce hot flashes, prevent cancer and heart disease, and save millions in the Third World from starvation. That was before they knew much about long-term soy use. Now we know it's a classic example of a cure that's worse than the disease.

For example, if your baby gets colic from cow's milk, do you switch him to soy milk? Don't even think about it. His phytoestrogen level will jump to 20 times normal. If he is a she, brace yourself for watching her reach menarche as young as seven, robbing her of years of childhood. If he is a boy, it's far worse: He may not reach puberty till much later than normal.

Research in 2000 showed that a soy-based diet at any age can lead to a weak thyroid, which commonly produces heart problems and excess fat. Could this explain the dramatic increase in obesity today?

Recent research on rats shows testicular atrophy, infertility and uterus hypertrophy (enlargement). This helps explain the infertility epidemic and the sudden growth in fertility clinics. But alas, by the time a soy-damaged infant has grown to adulthood and wants to marry, it's too late to get fixed by a fertility clinic.

Worse, soy use may double in the next few years because (last I heard) the out-of-touch medicrats in the FDA hierarchy are considering allowing manufacturers of cereal, energy bars, fake milk, fake yogurt, etc., to claim that "soy prevents cancer." It doesn't.

P.S.: Soy sauce is fine. Unlike soy milk, it's perfectly safe because it's fermented, which changes its molecular structure. Miso, natto and tempeh are also OK, but avoid tofu.

I hope this makes you laugh. Merry whatever you do.

@ Alien: It's true that some moron really thinks this is true, yes. here the link to the article http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=53327

@ Andielep, I think your dead on with that one.

To all the people who did not get this, why I posted it, that the author believes this and I don't, and that I think it was really funny that someone really thinks this way, and I hope you did too. If you don't "get" that, if their really was anything to "get", you are beyond help, have no sence of humor and most likly should just kill yourself.

:D

Answer 1

Cheers Matt, that gave me a huge chuckle!! Hey now we know where a certain person gets his/her 'Medical Journal' info from!!!

Answer 2

Soy is NOT dangerous!!! Soy may have some phytoestrogens, but so do many other foods such as sweet potatoes, etc. There are chemicals in every food. I think that it's all about moderation.

I grew up in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. About 40% of the members are vegetarians. I grew up on LOTS of soy and knew many others that grew up on soy. I only know ONE person that has a thyroid problem. I know ONE person that has bad reactions to soy, because he has an allergy to it. I started menstruating at 13 years old and my sister at 11. I don't know of anybody that has had a problem with soy. It's all hype.

what I HAVE heard of is people having problems with REAL DAIRY products because of the hormones that are put into the milk for the cows to give more milk. THAT has been causing early menarche, some breast development in men, etc.

Answer 3

I've been a vegetarian for decades. I was vegetarian during 2 pregnancies. My son played high school football and has been dating a wonderful woman for 2 years now.

I think a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. But I know that I don't have to worry about mad cow disease, and I know enough to shop at Trader Joe's because the milk there is not pumped full of antibiotics, etc. like that at your friendly neighborhood grocery store.

Don't be so quick to come to far-fetched conclusions, or people will write you off as being looney-tooney.

Answer 4

What kind of publication is the World Nut Daily ? By any chance did the dairy industry have a hand in the report? The dairy people have been losing market share since people have started drinking soy milk, and they don't like it. When it's reported in the Journal of the AMA , I'll take notice but when it's in the World Nut Daily (reporting on legumes), I'm very skeptical.

Answer 5

Soy has been studied in men. It makes them unusually angry. Soy is not health food friendly. A vast majority is genetically altered. THere is a concern in nature that estorgen mimic is pervasive in the environment. It is making frogs hermaphroditic and is responsible for the low sperm count in men. I have never heard the Estragon like chemicals in soy being a concern, but I always did worry about it.

Answer 6

I got shock to read about soy bean forbidden food, cause THYROID enlargement, especially in women and children

Answer 7

The Chinese people have been big soy bean consumers for centuries. There is no higher incidence of homosexuality among them. Don't believe everything that you read.

Answer 8

hahaa thats sad. if i was a guy, i would load up on the soy just to freak whoever believes this out.

Answer 9

I drink 3 to 3.5 cups of soy milk a day.

Answer 10

Thanks for the laugh and the two points.

If all that is said was true, then why isn't China a nation of gay men for at least the past five hundred years or even longer?
