🐱 The far-right thinks Burger King’s Impossible Whoppers will literally turn men into women

CatParty


Fans of far right-wing media are spreading the untrue (and somewhat transphobic) rumor that Burger King’s plant-based Impossible Whopper contains enough of the female hormone estrogen to make cisgender men grow breasts.
The rumor started because of an article written by James Stangle, a South Dakota veterinarian, and printed in Tri-State Livestock News, a publication that generally opposes plant-based meat substitutes as harmful to livestock farmers’ businesses. Stangle wrote, “An Impossible Whopper has 18 million times as much estrogen as a regular Whopper.”


The Impossible Burger is made partly of soy, a protein-rich product of soybeans which contains high concentrations of isoflavones. Isoflavones “belong to a class of compounds generally known as phytoestrogens… [which are] similar in function to human estrogen but with much weaker effects,”according to The Washington Post.
New York University nutrition professor Marion Nestle told the publication that Asian men and boys have been eating large amounts of soy for centuries and, “No, they don’t grow breasts.” Any guy who might grow breasts in response to eating large amounts of soy could just have an extremely rare sensitivity to phytoestrogens, she adds.
But that hasn’t stopped right-wing publications and commenters from repeating Stangle’s lie. Conservative news outlets like the National File and MichaelSavage.com have republished articles repeating it as fact, and far-right Twitter users are amplifying the lie with some occasional transphobic comments.

This isn’t the first time that soy has been a bogeyman for “feminizing” men. In 2006, James Rutz, founder of Megashift Ministries and religion columnist for worldnetdaily.com, wrote that soy “commonly leads to a decrease in the size of the penis, sexual confusion, and homosexuality.” However, no studies have ever actually linked the ingestion of phytoestrogens to becoming gay.

Lol (if ti's just a meme, why is it "transphobic")

So it does give dudes bitch tits then?

>New York University nutrition professor (((Marion Nestle))) told the publication that Asian men and boys have been eating large amounts of soy for centuries and, “No, they don’t grow breasts.” Any guy who might grow breasts in response to eating large amounts of soy could just have an extremely rare sensitivity to phytoestrogens, she adds.

Lol go for it goy

So since there haven't been studies done, just don't worry about the bitch tits goyim?




Seriously nigger, (((they))) even started this whole shebang off with and "somewhat transphobic," that should probably be a hint.

Is anybody here actually knowledgeable about nutrition or have references to any decent breakdowns of this topic?

Some say large quantity of soy is safe because phytoestrogens is not oestrogen, which is pretty shit reasoning imo because it doesn’t need to be chemically identical and there are reported cases of man-tits. Others have said phytic acid in unfermented soy is the real danger. Maybe it is safe. Anybody know?

No studies have actually been conducted, which given the state of modern academia, should kinda be a hint.

I wouldn't eat this shit, though honestly, you're better off grilling up your own burgers at home anyway.

Asians ferment the soy so they don't get phytoestrogens inside their bodies. Westerners are eating it wrong. East Asians eat the most meat on the planet so they're less likely to fucked by soy in the first place.
