Eating a half serving a day of soy-based foods could be enough to significantly lower a man's sperm count, U.S. researchers said on Wednesday.

The difference was striking. Men in the highest intake category had 41 million sperm per milliliter less than men who ate no soy foods. A normal sperm count ranges from 80 million and 120 million per milliliter, and a sperm count of 20 million per milliliter or below is considered low.

That's odd.

It's not that odd. I believe soy has lots of estrogens in it.

Damn, this is a long title. Yea, they say it causes breast cancer too. I don't eat that much of it, but every once in a while I indulge in a soy protein Boca Burger. I bake with Soy milk, but per serving the amount of soy is very little. I think it's just like anything else, you have to eat it in moderation.

haha, i dunno all this healthy stuff sounds pretty unhealthy

Well that sucks. I can't drink real milk, and I love soy milk! Fuuuuuuuck me! Sad

Seriously. This just makes vegan/vegetarian men even hotter to me.

And everyone wonders why them Vegan men are so fem...

I'm going to tell my friend Bobby this... but I was thinking about becoming a vegan. I'm starting out as a vegetarian, of course. And working into it.

Haha, I agree. I'm marrying a vegan guy.

FYI: I'm vegan.

Uhh...was that directed at me?

You find your soul mate, but he's a meateater.

What do you do next?

A. Pursue
B. Settle
C. Other

I don't know.

It's not like I'd NEVER date a meateater. It's just be really, really nice to have a vegeterian, or better yet, a vegan as a partnet. If I fell in love with a meateater, it's very likely that I will stay with them.

I don't think meateaters are horrible people. I think I'm the only vegan in my town! I know a few vegetarians.

It's just kind of a dream/fantasy to find this really nice, vegan guy.

Only humans pick mates according to feeding preferences. I just saw an English major spell "inanimate" as "Inademite".

eh, sperm's only good for making babies.

on the one hand, there would be a smaller chance of me getting preggers.
but on the other hand, I don't want a pansy boyfriend Razz

I always enjoy the assumption that vegetarian guys must be "pansies"

that's why it was a joke, and it was moreso because of the thread title.

I understand. I was hoping to get someone to agree with me for my own entertainment. Oh well.
