Scientists for Health Canada suggested that, considering the results of a recent study 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 (as hops contain phytoeostrogens) and drinking it may feminize men.
To test the theory, 100 men were given 6 pints of beer each to drink within a one hour period.
It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, refused to apologize when obviously wrong, and had to sit down while urinating.
No further testing was considered necessary. ;)
That's why I drink whiskey!
;D

I guess that phytoeostrogens is what makes beer a good marinade. Makes meet tender like a woman. Here I thought it was breaking down of tissue not "give me a tissue".
