Soy Warning: It gives you The Gay.
 

Ah, soy! Full of protein and essential amino acids! It reduces the risk of some cancers and even helps fight MS. The only downside? It gives you The Gay.

???
 

Oh...is there one? That's a big assumption to toss out so casually.

Soy is the work of the Devil. I can see that - in China they had to pay their huge gay population to start reproducing because their population was so dangerously low....

Oops - they thought about that:
I find this part especially interesting:
Eh? It's far worse for a boy to reach puberty later than it is for a girl to start menstruating at 7? Not in my book, chummy. After all, if he's going to be a gay anyway he's got to wait around for sex to be legal.

Anyway, as we now know teh gay has a biological cause, is it still a sin?

@ the article
you have got to be kidding me...

@ Sundae
the traditional Christian would probably argue that the biological condition exists because of sin in the world. It shouldn't exist but it does and no amount of saying it is 100% choice or what you friggin eat will change that.
I would say that when you step back it doesn't matter if it is a sin or not. We're all f'ed up and full of it and there's no point in picking on other people's flaws to bring them down. Then stand on their head while you yourself are no better a person than they.

SG - Don't forget - tofu is made of soybean surd, too. And Edamame is just soybeans. (Don't know if that is Chinese or Japanese)

Wow, news from WorldNetDaily, I usually go there after Rush Limbaugh in the afternoon and Bill O'Reilly on Fox every night! :rolleyes:

Every good birth/early childhood book I read stated it was best to limit the soy milk given until your child was five.
This is very old news.
However, hormones have nothing to do with sexual orientation, that is pure ignorance.

Huh? I thought that the cause was as yet unknown. Have hormones been ruled out as even a minor factor?

Every study I have seen or read that seems to show any promise is rooted in brain make-up... some say that is rooted in genetics.
I was born with very low testosterone and it never affected my attraction to women. Though I am very open to the fact that men can be attractive, I have never wanted to have a relationship with one and always only wanted women and that has been consistent throughout my life. I am more "sensitive" in a lot of ways than many men... but I think that has more to do with being raised away from society than my hormone level.
I have never seen a study that even mentioned hormone levels as a factor, and this is a pet project of mine.

What about the big study awhile back that showed that men with older brothers from the same mother were more likely to be gay, regardless of whether they were raised with those brothers or not? The theory behind those results was it had to do with the hormone levels of the mother during pregnancy.

I remember that, but nothing about the son's hormone level. Her level could affect his brain I'm sure. I could be wrong, I just think I would remember anything about hormone levels.

Ew. I hate soy.


I call TOTAL bullshit.

I can't access the whole article as I don't subscribe, but the abstract is here

By Anthony F Bogaert (emphasis mine)

I don't think his study suggests or rules out hormones one way or anoter, but that's an assumption.

I did too, even when I was vegan, until I tried Silk brand... still love it.

You love it, you just don't know it. If you eat processed food, there is a very high chance you're eating soy. The stuff is as widespread as high fructose corn syrup.
