I pointed this out and just got "nu uh" and "well the plants have more, and it does affect you!"

tbf you’d need to drink a fuckton of milk for it to meaningfully feminize you lol (by my calculations, more than 900000 glasses a day, but i may be wrong on the details)

same goes for soy milk, really. even if phytoestrogens had an effect you’d need to drink ungodly amounts of milk to see anything, especially if you don’t also take antiandrogens

Don't know what to tell you, you're in a vegan community

I assume they meant that they like the estrogen

Fucking carnivores coming in here and talking about how much they love meat why would they do that? Why would you do that, @fatvegan@leminal.space?

This is just a description of when I pointed it out to friends who buy the "soy makes you effeminate" bullshit. Not sure what you think I'm preaching.
