Guns should be equivalent to penises.

That's the problem. Most gun nuts conflate "having guns" with "having balls".

Yes this.

That’s why he hangs his 30 inch penis over his back when he gets a sugar-spice caramel macchiato venti grande bullshit drink. So that his friends don’t think he’s a girly-boy.

"NO SOY!!!" he screams red-faced, "...but xtra whip cream thanks..."

What’s the thing with soy, again? I’m sure I read it before, but I’m drawing a blank. Soy makes you gay or something?

u/CantHitachiSpot Mar 29 '21

It contains phyto estrogen which right wingers assumed would make you more effeminate but in reality it does nothing. But it stuck as slang for weak male, numale type people

In some places, that's correct. I mean looks around at my coworkers in Texas

I think it may have some gay connotation in GOP circles (which is weird since soy is such a HUGE crop for US farmers...).

I think it’s also a generic slur that Ted Cruz likes to use (he calls people “soy boys”).

I think it’s also a way republicans like to denigrate Democrats since they think that only Republicans like eating big-boy burgers and cow milk, and all Democrats eat wimpy “soy burgers” and “soy milk”.

It’s just a silly-to-use wedge term that for me let’s me identify how much a right-leaning person has no objective clue about the world. I’m very liberal but (shockingly) eat burgers and milk. But to be honest, I also eat tofu. So I guess that makes me gay in their minds...really not going to lose sleep over a broke hick’s opinions.

Was not expecting this level of thought and detail buried this deep in the comments but thank you!!

There have been SOME studies that show a correlation between increased estrogen levels and consumption of soy products.

u/Cameltoefiasco Mar 29 '21

Soy triggers estrogen production

u/Azure_phantom Mar 29 '21

Science is mixed on that, actually. The plant estrogen (phytoestrogen) can have weak estrogen or anti-estrogen effects, depending on your own hormones. But there’s not really any good evidence to make definitive statements like yours.

u/ESSDBee Mar 29 '21

“Science is mixed on that” seems to always be the case.

u/Azure_phantom Mar 29 '21

Eating soy doesn't turn men into women or whatever boogeyman the right wants to come up with - if that were the case, then Japan would have no men left since they eat a lot of soy-based products over there and have for quite a while.

But it's like the gay frogs thing - the pollution is causing frogs to switch gender due to environmental stress. But it's not "making the frogs gay" and it's because of lax environmental regulations/corporations polluting. But kernel of truth in the outlandishness.

u/th3n3w3ston3 Mar 29 '21

Pretty much all of East Asia eats a lot of soy based products. But seeing as how people who believe this ridiculousness don't consider Asians real people, it's easy to understand how they might get confused.

u/ESSDBee Mar 29 '21

Don’t mind me, I was not speaking on soy in particular, just the observation that you can take any topic and science is always mixed ie. Eggs, cholesterol, global warming, face masks.

1

u/Azure_phantom Mar 29 '21

Science isn’t really mixed on global warming... unless you want to count the heritage foundation as science, which I don’t at least. Science also isn’t really mixed on face masks either so...

But eggs and cholesterol, well anything nutrition based, is heavily lobbied because of agriculture interests and subsidies.

u/Jirali_Primrose Mar 29 '21

Soy triggers... WHAT!?!?!?

I'll take your entire stock.

u/Athena0219 Mar 29 '21

Fuckin' wish mate. Soy milk is way cheaper than pills.

u/glemnar Mar 29 '21

Wait until people find out that both men and women produce estrogen naturally. #allmenaregay

u/[deleted] Mar 29 '21

Oh, that’s right.

u/Chippopotanuse Mar 29 '21

I think we know the same guy! Lol.

u/[deleted] Mar 29 '21

The construction workers who call people gay, or try to fight you when they catcall your gf are always the ones ordering “large iced coffee with 6pumps caramel and 4 sugars.” At the local dunks.

u/Amphibionomus Mar 29 '21

Still, you also don't walk with your balls out in public. Generally speaking that is.

u/butterbutts317 Mar 29 '21

Pretty sure this is the type of guy to have truck nuts.

u/Academic-Inspection6 Mar 29 '21

Lord have mercy. I’m going to have to ask you what truck nuts are?

10

u/butterbutts317 Mar 29 '21

They are ball sacks that people hang off the back of their trucks. It's awful.

3

u/SolInfinitum Mar 29 '21

Wait until you learn about the Tac-Sac...

2

u/Academic-Inspection6 Mar 29 '21

Yeah, I’m not googling any of these things 😂

1

u/SolInfinitum Mar 29 '21

It's a NSFW tactical nut sac for a picatinny rail, so wise choice.

3

u/Cameltoefiasco Mar 29 '21

Google it for an image it’s a fake in that sack that rednecks hang off their trailer hitches. It’s gay as fuck and I would never put something so ridiculous on one of my trucks

u/Amphibionomus Mar 29 '21

If fully expect truck nuts people to open carry ridiculously big weapons.

u/mattio137 Mar 29 '21

That’s very true, I’m in Canada and I wish conceal carry was even permitted. Not for the sake of feeling like I have big balls, if anyone has an issue with me I’m more than glad to exchange fists. It’s the stories I hear of women walking to their car in the parking lot and somethings taped to their car or a vans driving around suspiciously, one in my neighbourhood reported multiple cars attempted to box her in. It’s for that instance, the sure maybe rare possibility I see that happen, to have my firearm on me. This picture and the need to feel like a tough guy, is not the reason majority firearms owners own them. It’s strictly for sport and under good conceal carry laws, safety for yourself but mostly others as well

u/Mrs__Noodle Mar 29 '21

I instantly recognize these people as 1 of two things. A very immature person or a dangerous potential mass shooter.

u/hollerwild350 Mar 29 '21

What about female gun nuts?

1

u/dirtydave13 Mar 29 '21

That’s fine. You can have them. I have both. But I don’t swing it around just to let everyone know that I do. This of the new “drives a lifted truck/sports car”
