What?

check the labels on your food boys if there is any soy in it at all it's the reason your not a man yet despite being in your 30's

This is demonstrably false.

In 2010, a group of American researchers from the University of Minnesota and Loma Linda University in California analyzed 47 studies that examined the relationship between soy and men’s sex hormones, including testosterone.

The researchers concluded that soy intake did not significantly affect testosterone levels.

that was 2010 this is from 2017 and your article says does not SIGNIFICANTLY affect but it does, men lost about 50% of their testosterone since the 50's that means your grandpa was much more manly than you ever could be, according to Doctors testosterone are dropping about 1% per year for men who consume soy regularly 

  

Why should I trust this woman (Who lost her job for doing an interview for a neo-nazi website, by the way) over the scientific community?

I'm sure she doesn't have any agenda, right? 

I really hope you don't end up shooting up a mosque like one of your alt-right homies did.

The whole Soy Boy thing is up in the air. The same research done by different teams seems to come to opposite conclusions.

We regularly see the reports that say, keep ingesting soy - it has no adverse effects. But the research that shows otherwise is not published widely. You have to find it on .gov websites. The thing that gets me is the funding behind some of the research that is "pro soy" (the ones that say it doesn't cause problems) has roots in groups that have very liberal ties. What that means? I don't know. Just something to keep an eye on.

Here are a few "anti soy" research conclusions... And these may have funding ties from groups that are anti-liberal. Discretion is always required. ... The science is NEVER "in".

These are from the .gov NCBI website:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3297906 This one is about decrease in male fertility and liver function.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11836067 This one is about the detrimental male neuro-behavioral effects of high soy diets.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18650557 This one is about the sperm concentration decrease from high soy diets.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0091302210000257?via%3Dihub This one is about the prevalence of soy based infant formula. This one shows disruption of brain sexual differentiation during development and abnormal development of the male reproductive tract.

...

There are plenty of studies like the ones above that show the negative effects of soy for males dealing with fertility, neurological behavior, brain sexual differentiation, etc.. 

So what is my take away? If the research results are contradictory and pointing to completely opposite results, I say take soy and other phytoestrogens in moderation. If you are worried about things like fertility or brain sexual differentiation during development for your child, then err on the side of caution and decrease soy intake. If you don't care about those things, then do whatever you want.

The issue with some of the results about sexual developmental effects from soy based infant formulas are non-reversible. If you already have disrupted brain sexual differentiation and neuro-behavioral effects from this, then you are stuck with it. You are already past the developmental stage that can reverse such an effect. You are now a "soy boy".

I do eat some things that have phytoestrogens in them but I try to keep the intake moderated to be within a well rounded diet. I don't go out of my way to drastically decrease soy intake but I consciously consider possible effects when deciding the amount of soy products I consume.
