LONDON (Reuters) Yesterday scientists for Health UK suggested
that, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the
presence of female hormones in beer, men should take a concerned
look at their beer consumption. The theory is that beer contains
female hormones (hops contain phytoeostrogens) and drinking it
makes men turn into women.To test the theory, 100 men were
fed 6 pints of beer eachwithin a two-hour period. It was then
observed that 100% of the men:
1. Gained weight
2. Talked excessively without making sense
3. Became overly emotional
4. Couldn’t drive a car
5. Failed to think rationally
6. Argued over nothing
7. Had to sit down while urinating
8. Refused to apologize when obviously wrong
According to herbal medicine hops contain oestrogenic substances.
They also have some other nasty effects. In particular aggravating depression.
In folk medicine hops are traditionally used to suppress sexual desire. In the middle ages hops were used to flavor and preserve beer by monks. Before then beer other substances (e.g. yarrow) were used.
So beer (alcohol + hops) won’t turn you into a women but it will make you less of a human.
That’s a good one!!! As much as I shouldn’t laugh at my own kind, it’s the general look on females. But let me tell you: I fluctuate in my weight, I always make sense, I am emotional - but hell, don’t get me mad, I can kick anyone’s ass in snaking through cars and going 160 km/hr, well…I don’t know about rational…, there is always something to argue about!!, damn it!!, do you have to bring up the urinating - we try !! It’s not faiR!!!, and NO, I will not apologize for anything I did no wrong!!! Thankyou :OP
