this crazy fuck is right. hormones and other substances released in the water/dumped in the water change the genetics of animals living there. but yes cOnsPirAcY tHeoRy... until it's affecting you it's all a joke

Also it's only a conspiracy if there's intentional disregard for the best interests of people whom you are intentionally hiding information from. Where I live they were pumping out hormones into the river all the way back into the 60s, screwing up fish life. But it's because they were ignorant and dumb. This is from the same time when the government had a campaign for people to weigh down garbage with rocks before throwing it in the sea, because it's unsightly when it floats.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

keep using those plastic products bro they haven't said they are bad for us so they must be good. enjoy your micro plastic enriched blood 👍🏽

What's the difference between a conspiracy and the truth. Abouts 3 months

How real is soy->estrogen link?

It's not. Plant estrogens have a similar structure to human estrogen, but do not work the same in the human body. You can tell this is true because otherwise trans women would be downing soy milk like there was no tomorrow.

You know what is pack full of estrogen-estrogen? Cow milk and other dairy produt.

otherwise trans women would be downing soy milk like there was no tomorrow

This is the classic counter-argument to so many superstitions and conspiracy theories. Storms are punishment from God for your homosexuality? Oh great, let's organise a big gay orgy everywhere there's a drought! Crystals can heal you and ghosts can tell you secrets from beyond the grave? Brilliant, every military and intelligence agency is going to invest heavily changing warfare and espionage immediately!

Isn't estradiol made from yams? Like you can't just eat plants for their hormones even if you physically could eat enough the hormones still need processed to be noticably effective on humans, but plants are still a viable source

It's not extracted as-is from yams. Yams have diosgenin - which needs to be extracted, cleaned and then put through a few chemical processes to be useful.

Plants are viable sources of precursors not of the end result, and many of these precursors aren't useful in biological processes.

Scientific studies have not shown Men to have substantial estrogen level changes from drinking soy.

That's why I mentioned it needs processed. Didn't know the word precursors but yeah we're talking the same thing

It's been a while since I graduated but I think it was something like that: there is a molecule in soy that can be metabolized and then binds to estrogen receptors. However, there are two different receptors that, when activated, will have different signaling cascades and effects. That soy molecule binds to one of them. But only about 50% of people (I think the study was done in menopausal women) metabolize that molecule to the active, estrogen-receptor binding molecule. The others don't and soy has absolutely no effect on them. For those who do metabolize it, it can have an effect on some estrogen-regulated pathways, but it is not "estrogen" and cannot substitute it.

Catfish looks quite happy tbf

"Fuck yeah! I can make my own babies now!"

The future is catfish 🫣

You must eat ze fish live in ze fish n own no catfish 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 kim wexler feet pics where 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒🐒💦💦💦💦💦💦💦

This gives a new meaning to Soyboy.

no it doesn't.. this has always meant feminine men exactly because soy is fucking with humans

So it is a now a real and a metaphorical catfish.

The bottom one kinda looks like markiplier, not trying to say he is a soyboy or anything the fish just physically looks like him somehow

I think the vibrant red lips remind me of his red hair stripe, now that you mention it
