Most of the dopers I have met were not exactly ladies men. Or men's men, for that matter. They were content to drift around in their own little hazy world.
That said, I still think we should make it legal. Protecting them from themselves is costs me too much, in both money and freedom.

“Correlation does not equal causation.”
Not to mention no thought being given to the increasing presence of xenoestrogens and other hormone disruptors in the environment.

Why do they always say “increased risk”, but never tell you what the risk was to start with, and how much it increased?

Correct (e.g. BPA), although there are non-plastic sources too.

An intelligent position on a controversial subject.
Amazing how often tolerance is the correct response, n'est-ce pas?
I love freedom!

“Victoria Cortessis, assistant professor of preventive medicine at the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine in Los Angeles. “So we asked, ‘What is it that young men are doing more frequently that could account for the increased risk?’””
That sounds pretty thin, correlation or causation?
Looks like the found a convenient target to blame. As we see, science and critical thinking is falling apart in our society.

He's already a nard short, guess he's going for two.
