Does smoking pot cause man boobs?

(CNN) -- A young man in his 20s -- let's call him George -- sits across from me in the exam room.

"Dr. Youn," he says, "I have man boobs."

I notice a not-so-unfamiliar smell wafting from his body. It's the same odor that floated my way during a rock concert I recently attended.

"How long have you had a problem with this, George?"

"Hard to say. But it seems to have gotten worse over the past year or so."

"George, the first thing you need to do is stop smoking pot. Marijuana could be causing your man boobs."

I find it highly amusing that a 1972 study was quoted but not the one from the National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse that favored ending prohibition. Nixon, the spawn of satan he was, even tried to interfere once word got out his little study wasn’t going the way he planned. More sound judgement from the wise and honorable Richard M. Nixon.

So you believe all government reports and studies? Like those originating from the likes of Valerie Plame and her husband, or any of hundreds of government sponsored research on man-made global warming affirming the West as being the reason temperatures on Mars are increasing? How about government affiliated figures like Bill Ayers and Nadil Hasan?

Plenty of fifth column agents working on the public dole and they don't always have the same objective in mind or objectivity in their research.

They are still trying to sell the same soap they were selling in “Reefer Madness”.

Reefer Madness was about selling movie tickets to an Adults Only movie in the age of the Hayes Code. Nothing else.

Other exploitation films at that same time had skinny dipping scenes and other naughty nudity amid the drugging and gun play.

Each city had its own local censorship board. Roadshow filmmakers had to appeal to the city to be able to show their wares. Sometimes they would even substitute alternate takes of scenes (more clothing) and even have to make substitutions on the fly if the vice squad dropped in on a screening. The hucksters would then have resort to a "square-up" reel when the heat left the premises.

They were carny folk.

Ah, the horrors of Communism.

I learned yesterday that man boobs are called “moobs”.

[Salamander]

Liberal XX chromosome beings, then?

How the hell have you been?!?
I haven’t heard from you in ages!

[and your tagline is gonna make people think you’re weird]

;D

We actually sat through that movie in high school.

Between that and the 8mm car wreck carnage gore-fests they showed us in driver’s ed, it’s a miracle that I ever left the house.

You’re doing something that’s screwing with your eyesight, kid.

[Salamander]

I thought we’d decided that moobs were caused by the chemicals in plastic and/or milk/meat and various and sundry phytoestrogens?

[ToastedHead]

These are.

[Ditter]

I don't know what causes moobs, my husband has them. He is 78, overweight and diabetic on insulin, he has always had them. Even when he was young and solid muscles. Don't tell him I told you. :[

That’s a safety flotation device.

It’s from hormones from birf control pills in the water supply.

[wardaddy]

It matters to me how you receive my bloviations

And I can be insufferable

[Salamander]

You know I love you or I wouldn’t be tormenting you.

:)

[you? insufferable? ha! as if I don’t spend my life on a soapbox...partly because I’m short]

A lot of men turn into boobs when they smoke pot.
