It’s completely wild that people drink cow hormone juice and then think that soy is affecting their hormones.

It's completely wild that... Husbandry exists? That we eat other animals? That we rot liquid food to drink it? That we use bacteria to curdle milk?
Hot bean juice!
I'm on your level. People get really weird about milk despite the fact that the majority of people consume animal flesh on a daily basis. Milk is way low on the weird food scale.
We've been eating animals a few million years longer than drinking their milk. (Lactose intolerance is far more common than generally thought.)
Take another look at your map there, because it backs me up.
Here's another, lactose Tolerance (notice Tolerance with a T) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance#/media/File:Lactose_tolerance_in_the_Old_World.svg It shows pretty much only Northern European heritage, iffy if you're southern European, and pretty much everyone is out of luck.
It is a badge i would wear with honor, because soy is awesome and the myth is bullshit.
afaik, it's not really a myth. it does actually have plenty of phytoestrogens and it's often recommended as a supplement for HRT. Probably not enough to have much of an effect on its own though
False, the phytoestrogens in beer are far more bioavailable, but also the animal estrogen in beef.
it does actually have plenty of phytoestrogens
you think because it has "estrogens" in the name it turns you into a girl. phyto- means plant. are you a plant?
recommended as a supplement for HRT.
by who? facebook?

You know what I've been seeing on Facebook lately (qualifier, I use it for my local village group and those last few friends that refuse to use anything else)? People posting the fact that the AstraZeneca vaccine used a modified chimpanzee adenovirus and implying this is the cause of the mpox business.
I would 100% bet they got it from Facebook!
but you see, the whole of Asia is made up of just women so that proves it! /s
Exactly. It has a similar name in one of the ingredients. But: this ingredient is not estrogen and it basically has zero impact on the hormones in your body. And all experts know that. That's why there's no scientific papers supporting this whole soy / estrogen theory.
I dunno, just mentioning what I've heard before, hence the 'afaik'
If you let your boss bully you into explaining what a soyboy is, you are in fact a soyboy
he brought it upon himself when he called a coworker soyboy first
The really funny thing about this is OP is egregiously wrong.
Soy doesn't contain estrogen, it contains phytoestrogen, which not only doesn't produce any estrogen-like side-effect, but actively prevents our bodies from taking and producing estrogenic hormones.
This is all very ironic, considering drinking ~~excessive~~ cows milk ~~leeches calcium out of our bones and~~ exposes us to a smorgasbord of hormones not designed for humans.
Soy is shit tier anyway, oat milk all the way.
It's phytoestrogen, dummy Anon.
