For years now, the U.S. meat and dairy industries have been dosing the livestock with female hormones in order to get the animals to put on more weight quicker to be more profitable. Milk cows are no longer needing to be bred to bulls to get them to produce milk--just add female hormones to their diet. Turkey chicks that would normally take 6 months to reach Thanksgiving size can get such concentrated doses of female hormones that they will reach 20 lbs. in EIGHT WEEKS.
SO WHAT, you say? Well, when you eat that meat and drink that milk, you are ingesting copious amounts of female hormones yourself. Men are being feminized, girls are developing breasts and having periods at younger and younger ages, there is a higher incidence of male infertility and dysfunction than there has ever been...eventually, the male gender will no doubt evolve out of existence, and Earth will be the domain of the Uberfemale...
BUT WAIT!!! You can fight this trend, be one of the few manly men left in the country, have women flocking to you in droves, sighing, "Oooo, a REAL man..."
HOW?
Just eat hormone-free meat. That would include all U.S. buffalo--which is a manly meat anyway--as well as meats and milk products labelled hormone-free that you can get at your local Whole Foods, Central Market or other savvy food stores. Of course, the downer is that if you've been fed the estrogen-rich milk and meat from birth, it's already built up in your tissues--but at least now you have a good excuse when, uh, well, when things don't go quite the way they should...
There! I've made my public service announcement for the day. I now return you to your regularly scheduled BS...
Ha.
I raise my own chickens, goats, and a bison a year (gelded, penned and grass-fed, so they come out wonderfully tender!), as well as goats and what game I can get when I get to hunt-actually between my wife and me, we get meat to share with a wide circle of friends.
So I guess I'm a hormone-free manly man.
I saw one of those body builder freak chicks a couple weeks back - totally gross. She'd gotten to the point that she needed implants to actually have discernable breasts.
As someone married to one of those non-chemically enhanced "body builder freak chicks" (actually , it's more "bizarro fitness Nazi") I've got to say that there's room for all kinds-while she isn't as freakishly cut and built as the woman you saw, I do get a kick out of it when we're at the gym: she's a nut for leg presses, and usually winds up shaming the hell out of some guy by throwing on a few 45's after he's done with his set, and has offered to rack his weights......
Forget about the bike rides or stair-master competitions, though......
