      how can anyone believe that plants contain significant amounts of estrogen, while the meat of female animals doesn't?

        my highschool chemistry teacher told us smoking weed causes estrogen to skyrocket in your body and would make you grow breasts... that's the kind of education we get in public schools

          That's funny, because doesn't it actually make it harder to grow breasts? Something about retaining or developing fat or something

              Not directly related to breasts, but I've just heard that weed makes it so your body has a bit of a harder time creating fat deposits or something. I knew a bunch of skinny stoners and I decided never to look into it, because I like having a few of those "heard it from a guy" nuggets left in my life instead of googling it. Medieval grindset on my part

                i also choose not to investigate this, mostly because it would be deeply inconvenient for me if it were true stalin-approval

        it literally does though, but they're plant estrogens and their effects are Complicated
