How about we stop turning cooking boards psuedo-political debate boards?

PSA: If 100 or so grams of tofu twice a week will noticeably tank your T levels, you should've given up long ago.

>>10485885
Thanks for the new copypasta, faggot

>>10485894
Please be true

didnt read, i just heard i can say soyboy here

soyboy soy test

>>10485898
>>10485908
HOLY FUCKING BASED

looks like I found a new board (soy)boys

let the keks resume

I knew about Soylent years ago because of the Lesswrong cult.

How it got any kind of following in the mainstream is beyond me; everything about it, all of its optics, is just so faggy. Drinking jizz-colored nutritional slurry so you don't have to spend 2 minutes making a sandwich - that's what the product offers. People as autistic as Lesswrong might be into that, sure, but regular people?

Maybe it just goes to show that most people are simply cattle who follow trends.

>>10485912
>soyboys use a "BASED " false flag to "ridicule" people exposing their mental illness
>mods replace "soy" with "based" to prove them "right"
Mods aren't even subtle about their side on this issue. I guess soylent did leave the bottle

>>10485939
Based and redpilled! Keep fighting the good fight, my fellow pede! MAGA! Praise kek!

>>10485931
>most people are simply cattle who follow trends.
Wow, just discovering this? And you wonder why people have begun getting annoyed when faggots crying about trends dominates literally every fucking thread?

There is a legitimate concern in the medical and scientific community about the long term effects of xeno and phyto estrogens on the human body, and the declining fertility rates among males in modern western countries. This is coming from someone who eats soy sauce and soyabeans.

>>10485946
>grrr I'm so mad at him, I'll prove him right!
It really is just brain poison.

the soybean itself is literally the plants reproductive organs no shit its going to have plant hormones in it.
Its the same thing with chicken eggs but ya don't see people going total apeshit over that.

>>10485963
Just because phytoestrogen is structured similarly to mammal estrogen, and acts as an estrogen for plants, doesn't mean that it affects humans.
"Growing concern" is just people being worried in general, not just experts. Experts can be confident that nothing is wrong, and concern can still grow among the general populace.

>>10485994
Saturated fat and cholesterol both promote testosterone. Eggs are the very opposite of soyfeed.

Maybe the estrogen's muddling your brain a bit to make false equivalencies like that.

>>10485996
But there is concern among the experts. Why do you think BPA plastic is being phased out.

>>10485892
dumb frog

>>10485971
Based MAGApede redpilling that soyboy praise kek, truly /ourguy/

>>10486011
Because that's plastic that's leaking into water, not a bean.

I love beans, but I've never liked soybeans. They basically taste like sand. It seems like a weird personality thing if you PREFER soy in any context - that, or a weird social signal you're trying to send.

>>10486019
Oh I thought you were referring to declining fertility rates in general in your previous post, my bad.

>>10485890
estronaut detected

>>10486052
they also have a shit texture

>>10486052
That's not what sand tastes like. They taste a bit buttery.

>>10486017
Based redditor slaying the /pol/fag menace, this is a progressive board

>>10485885
>Why has there been such a massive influx of beta-males obsessed with their soy diets?
>unhealthily obsessed with this simple bean.
>Thoughts? Anyone want to further discuss the obsession people have with this bean?
You're the one that make some pseudo-political rant on a fucking cooking imageboard. You wrote over 200 words about a 'simple bean' and the people that consume it. You are obsessed.

>>10486086
Blast! Foiled again!
>jumps out of the window
We'll meet again, Batman!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Doesn't regular dairy have more estrogen than soy based products?

Also the biggest way to tank your T levels (without hormones) is by being fat

>>10485885
There's lots of studies on soy. Soy consumption has been linked to altered menustral cycles, and I believe the CDC (?) recommends that pregnant mothers reduce soy consumption. Estrogens aside, soy has a lot of 'anti-nutrients' that are removed or reduced by cooking or fermenting (tofu).

Personally, I eat tofu and don't really care if my taco bell is only 56% beef. A varied diet can correct deficiencies, as some compounds are antiestrogenic.

>>10486099
Lol imagine that. Overweight poltards needing to find something to make them feel higher-test. thus soyboy was born.

>>10486099
no the amino acids in milk make your body produce higher anabolic hormones

>>10486099
Dairy milk promotes excess estrogen in the body due to it containing estrogen from female cows. At the same time, milk naturally contains androgenic properties, so it raises testosterone in the body and can cause bulking quickly.

>>10485885
So what happens to Soylent?

>>10485885
>The word soy is too offensive for 4chan
When did we become Reddit?

>>10485890
Mods made it political when they decided to filter the word

>>10486272
>why are you offended by all my viagra spam? you can just press delete
I guess millennials don't remember the bad old days when email was starting to become unusable

>>10486272
reddit is a state of mind

>>10485931
Because 2022 is just four years away.

>it’s PLANT estrogen, silly, it doesn’t do anything in humans!

Soy used to be promoted as a women’s supplement because phytoestrogens remedy age-related estrogen decline. The reason soy is no longer marketed specifically towards women isn’t because science found that to be untrue - it IS true - but because why sell a product to half the population when you can sell it to the whole population?

>>10486563
The idea that soy hormones does anything is utter nonsense. Take a gander at Asia. If soy were some kind of estrogen superpower then all the women would be walking around with massive breasts whereas the opposite is far more common And age-related estrogen decline is just as much a reality there than it is elsewhere.

>>but muh pills
Just because a product is advertised doesn't mean it actually does a damn thing. In the US there used to be a "herbal breast enhancement tablet" called Bloussant. It was shut down by a class-action lawsuit & customers sent refunds after the court found it to be 100% bullshit false advertising.

>>10486582
>If soy were some kind of estrogen superpower then all the women would be walking around with massive breasts

Estrogen isn’t a magic potion from /aco/.

>>10486589
That's the point. It doesn't do a damn thing, whereas you've got fuckwits on here saying

>>durr I don't eat soy becuz don't want mantits

>>10486103
>fermenting (tofu)
Soy isn't fermented to make tofu.

Soy

>>10486582

Japans birth rate is declining and according to Triumph International Japan who make bras say that japanese womens breast sizes have increased

Soylent 1.0 didn’t even have soy in it they fucked their shit up with the bottled version

>>10486947
Well some kinds are. But you're right, I was thinking of miso.

>>10486011
Xenoestorgens are far more powerful endocrine disrupters than the phytoestrogens in soy which actually have a protective effect on gyno and breast cancer due to lowering estrogenic activity when bound to the E2 estrogen receptor compared to when estrogen binds to it.

>>10486947
>>10487664
Tempeh is like tofu but fermented. Has a sort of rougher texture.

>>10485885
Just eat green onions with your soy and it will neutralize all the human estrogen in it.
