Dude, it's all true!
(I was totally going to post this story. I had a tab open to that old post and everything. Did we all just post within ten minutes of each other?)
I think Robert Graves, towards the end of his life, began maintaining that milk leads to the gay.
Data point: Last Tuesday I ate miso soup for lunch, and I had an exceptionally good hair day that day.
3: The last time I had miso soup, I woke up two days later in a rest stop bathroom. I don't know what's in that stuff but whatever it is, it sure makes your ass hurt.
4: miso soup often has chunks of tofu in it though
Ever wonder why these guys never get worried about the synthetic estrogen levels in meat, etc. ?
steak is making teh gay.
Seems as if tofu'd be too soft to make apo's ass hurt.
Were both ogged and apo reading WND simultaneously, or did someone else you both read link to this? Actually, I suppose the most likely thing is that 1 was written by one of the balding 47 year old man's personalities to another.

My ass used to be much tougher, before I ate all that soy.
someone else you both read link to this?
I saw the link at cruel.com's message board.
Quick, somebody cut farm subsidies!
Oh, wait...
Where you can also find a link to this disturbing story.
10: Were you running low on soy or something, Ogged?
my ex is a vegan. my ex is an ex. wow. it's all starting to make sense.

That would totally expain it, but no, I whimsically clicked on Yglesias's blogroll this morning.
2: True about Graves, who was obsessed with teh gaye all his life. His youthful autobiography, Goodbye To All That, has a nasty story about a gay schoolmaster on the first page.
So that's why last week my grandmother said, "Death to all vegans."
I can't believe anyone would think this. All of a sudden, supporting the Iraq War -- even now -- seems like a logical and well-reasoned position to take.
(Afterwards, she added, "Only the militant ones.")
Apo, I can't wait for Megan to show up and kick your ass.
I love the part where he says soy is obviously the reason everyone's getting so fat. Let's interview some obese people and find out how much soy is in their diet!
I get the feeling he thinks high fructose corn syrup is made of soy.
Data point: I was fed soy formula and am not gay. I suppose it's possible that it shrunk my penis and testicles, though.
Soy fomula is, however, not so good for babies, they've recently realized (worse than cow's milk, which is of course worse than breast-milk), and I'm told by my doctors it likely caused my the allergies to soy products I have as an adult.
And I'm convinced that soy products generally aren't good for people, at least the hyper-processed soy products that most people refer to as soy products. (Feel free to discount this by the fact that I also think jogging is bad for you. And whole grain breads.)
There are all sort of crazy theories about what makes people gay. I know someone who insists, adamantly, that if an infant is breast-fed for more than the first three months of life, it will likely end up gay. That makes no sense on so many different levels it's difficult to even contemplate.
"it leads to a decrease in the size of the penis"
he says that likes it's a bad thing.
also this gem: "that's why most of the medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality"
translation of "not socio-spiritual":
don't worry, redstaters, you can buy my ConAgra conspiracy theory and *still* rail against moral depravity, atheism, and liberal college-teachers. It's a two-fer!
Gee, it's too bad there aren't any societies that consume a lot of soy products that we could use to test his theory!
26--
it's hard to test directly because people lie about being gay.
But the indirect studies using "foreign" as a proxy for "gay" have been pretty conclusive.
9 -- (maybe somebody already linked this) Roy Edroso has a fantastic take on this story.
Wow. Someone's gonna clean up in the tofu cock business.
29: Yeah, that shop is going to need a LOT of cleaning up.
5: Was it the Vince Lombardi? Maybe we *have* met before!
I donno. I can imagine the consumption of tempeh being the factor that drives someone to homosexuality, but only as a means of getting the taste out of their mouth.
