if the hormones injected into beef cattle have anything to do with the increase in male homosexuality.

No, I think its the salad dressings used by the vegetarians.........

I marvel at todays twenty-something men (can’t speak for the US, only my own county); pale, skinny with no hint of muscle at all, zero body hair, and big old heads with feminine features and women’s hairstyles. And apparently these dudes are straight....

I think you’re right. For men my age, it doesn’t have any effet, but for boys who are developing, it is completely emasculating.

been saying the same for ages how men are turning into pansies and girls.
I think it is because we have mothers who raise their boys like little pansies and tell their boys it is alright to play with dolls.

The amount of times I have seen mothers run over to their little Johnny when they tripped and made such a fuss is amazing .
Little Johnny has a scrape and they give him a band aid and make such a fuss.
tell the boy to get up and get on with it instead.

I remember one mother who was shocked that boys have been boxing and fighting since they were 5.

She thinks that kids should never fight.

I’ve suspected the prevalence of the birth control pill as the cause of this.

I mean even the fish are becoming female.

correct

it is the left who raise their kids to be either gender.
Boys play with Barbies and wear make up .
I just hope that by the time my daughter gets older and starts dating there are men left for her instead of a pansy cry baby drama queen.

This explains the increase in the number of liberal men in the U.S.

"In my daughter's High School "boys" are encouraged to dye their hair either full blond or black and wear tight pants colored either pink, light blue, yellow or orange. They are also, by peer pressure, forced to use something called guy-liner on their eyelashes. Otherwise, they are instantly labeled "Jocks" I would say that at least 50% of the guys in her school look like they are full blown gays. "

Creepy stuff. I'm not seeing much of that in our corner of suburban Philadelphia. Some dyed hair, but often that's just the swim team doing their bit to build team spirit before their big winter meets. Their hair is already bleached and dry from the chlorine, so they finish the bleach job before shaving it all off a few weeks later. Pretty funny actually.

I think if my sons encountered pressure to dress and make up as you've described, they'd ignore it. Perhaps it's our demographic makeup. We have a high percentage of Jewish students and children of Chinese and Korean immigrants. These tend to be a pretty studious lot and not inclined to go off the deep end with these sorts of trends.

This is just anecdotal but I also notice, when listening to TV or talk radio call-in shows, that a lot of males who claim they’re in their 20s or 30s, have moderately high feminized voices.

I've also read comments from quite a few people about how the sound of men's voices has changed. They think more men are speaking with higher-pitched voices and a nasal tone. I am trying to pay more attention to it and haven't made up my mind yet. I definitely see more metrosexual types, many of whom spend more time on grooming and wardrobe than the average woman. Can't say I like that trend. I'm glad my husband and sons aren't like that - cleanliness is good, but things can definitely be taken too far. (Besides, I don't want them monopolizing the bathrooms . . . ).

An old Veterinarian years ago told me not to buy into the soy protein good as animal protein myth for my show dogs or my children.Soy is full Phytoestrogens, sometimes called “dietary estrogens”, and cause estrogenic effects.
Our food supply is full of it.

This is true, people. There are so many things in our environment that affect the woman’s womb environment and can change her male fetus’s orientation and self-gender-association.

This happens to all the other animals and it is happening with our kids.

These poor kids need our love and support. They are not doing anything against G-d and tradition. They are little children born with a disability or difference just like other disabilities. PLEASE don’t condemn these little kids with mixed up gender feelings or orientations. It’s not their fault. They were born like this or maybe in infancy their environment shaped them like this.

Even if you hate the gay agenda, please have as much sympathy and love available to kids with gender issues just like you would for kids with cleft palate or diabetes.

Don’t blame their parents either. No one yet knows exactly how to prevent these chemicals from entering the mother’s body. Could be she was exposed to them over her whole life.

I think it’s heartless to mock and have disdain for innocent children who cannot help how they feel.

"...a mysterious shift in the sex of babies. ... some 250,000 babies who statistically should have been boys have ended up as girls in Japan and the United States alone."

Well that makes no sense unless they are claiming that the chemicals are not only messing with boys' hormones, but actually TURNING BOY BABIES INTO GIRL BABIES in utero.

I think this is probably true, although the article is pretty useless since it doesn’t say what is at fault.

Birth control pills going into the sewers, soy, and no doubt other chemicals and plastics are probably responsible, although who knows in what proportions? And some of the chemicals used on food animals are probably responsible too.

One solution is to eat organic, although that can be very expensive unless you are in the right neighborhood. Another may be to avoid plastics.

The real problem is that the government has proven to be absolutely useless at discovering these problems or controlling them. The whole purpose of the FDA these days seems to be to cover up for poisoned Chinese products, and the others are equally useless. Not everyone working for them is guilty, by any means, but they have to follow routine procedures. For instance, Clinton saw to it that his pal Tyson’s packing plants were never properly inspected—one good reason among many not to buy Tyson products.

Another trouble is that many of the regulators are “green,” and you never know whether they might not secretly be sympathetic to the idea of reducing birth rates by feminizing men. Plus, being a macho guy is politically incorrect.

It would be good to get some really reliable reports on the dangers, and how to avoid them.

I wondered about that too, but I think what the author means is that, statistically, normally a certain percentage of newborn babies are male and a certain percentage are female, but those accepted percentages have been skewed. So, for example, if you had 100 babies born, you might expect something like 51 girls and 49 boys, but instead you get 55 girls and 45 boys. The only two explanations for that would be either that the X-carrying sperm are given an advantage by estrogens, or that the sex differentiation of the fetus is disrupted by the estrogens.
