Tofu! Tofu! Tofu!

Here's another one of those "Fundies Say The Darndest Things" items:
Is tofu part of the "Gay Agenda?"

Yes!

Tofu, and quiche!

Eat either every day for a month, and you'll feel your wrist get limp, and you'll start talking with a lisp!

Eat BOTH every day for a month, and you'll be shopping for dresses and girly things!

It's True!

You feed tofu to pigs.

If you hate pigs, that is.

Tricky · 9th January 2007, 05:33 AM

That must explain why all Chinese men are gay. It's surprising China has such a population problem.

I like tofu. Does that make me a pig? And hate myself?

Now I'm confused...

Well played, Tricky.

By the way, it truly is a sick joke of the English language that the word "lisp" has an "S" in it. That must make for some awkward conversations.

"Pardon my thpeaking, I have a lithp."

(repressing laughter) "Sorry, you have a what?"

"A lithp, thtupid!"

"Goy" will take on a new usage, I predict. That's if it is as prevalent in the near future as here predicted. All to be blamed on their mothers, of course

.

"My mother made me a homosexual!"
"If I gave her the wool, would she make me one too?"

That's a Welsh joke. Really. Those long winter nights simply fly by ...

Although, now that you mention it, one of its population problems is that there are, relatively speaking, too many males. Discouraging for heterosexuals (except women), but a favorable environment for gay men, I guess.

I better not let my fiancee read this, he'll understand my underhanded scheme in trying to get him to become a vegetarian like myself - it doesn't have anything to do with my concerns about animal welfare afterall, it is really because I want to temper his voracious sexual appetite! Actually since I prepare most of his meals, you'd think he'd be quite gay already but he doesn't seem to be showing any signs of losing interest in me. Oh well.

I tasted... man... before I ever tasted tofu. FWIW.

This Guy · 11th January 2007, 10:41 AM

It seems there is more than Tofo and Quiche to worry about!

All I can cay is WOW!

Tricky obviously didn't read the article! The Chinese don't actually eat soy, it's all a myth.

Soy contains phytoestrogens which supposedly mimic estrogen enough to keep the body from making the real stuff, but which don't always effect the body as does real estrogen. So depending on what subsystem you look at, soy either raises or lowers effective estrogen levels. Generally, lower is better. Word is still out whether this is good, bad, or indifferent.
