To take one recent example, University of Colorado scientists found that of the 123 fish they had caught at a nearby mountain stream for research purposes, "101 were female, 12 were male and 10 were strange ‘intersex' fish with male and female features"

What reason do we have to think that this situation is not perfectly normal? Or even supposing it's not, why would we assume that estrogen from the pill is to blame? This is anecdotal statistics at its absolute worst. Lately it seems it's been the global warmist scaremongerers who have been using "evidence" of this sort - but clearly they're not the only ones who can play that game.

Estrogen in water, huh. So THAT explains why there are so many liberal men.
