Can anyone explain why Soylent is associated with nu-males? Like Im guessing it the fact that they are "Soy Boys" but I just want to be sure.

They drink this garbage instead of car milk.

Got it in one, anon. It's the perfect boogeyman for people who hate soy and who hate drinkable meal replacements.
Funny enough, besides the memes and a rare Facebook ad, I've never actually seen anything about soylent in real life, except when they sponsored a LAN event at my uni one time

Because some people are extremely insecure about themselves, thus get a massive hissyfit over anything that does not cater to their delicate sensibilities.

I really don't get the point of the meal replacement drinks, but yeah it's the soyboys meme.

>> No.10894773

People think it turns you into a tranny because a bunch of trannies and fembois drink this shit for nearly every meal. I used to buy this theory, but I think it's mixing up cause and effect. You would have to be mentally damaged from the get-go to find the idea of drinking tasteless sludge for every meal appealing.
Soylent doesn't create new soyboys; it just heavily attracts preexisting ones.

In 2010, when the trannie wave was starting to took off, some nutritionist said that Soy was able to lower the levels of testosterore and increase estrogen production, for having high levels of plant strogen. This was mostly a scam to seel such products to wanna-be-trap-boys and it's now considered as "placebo" effect, ingesting plant strogen will just incite your stomach to kick out such nutrients out of your body, as plant strogen is incompatible to human strogen, and your body would not want this useless shit inside you, or even less starting to produce it for no reason.

In 2013 /fit/ discovered this fact (withou fact checking) and started some weird paranoia that all the soy in their food and supplements and blammed it as the cause of the drop in their testosterone levels. /pol/ came along and promote it as a jew conspiracy to eradicate manliness by putting soy in every product, so much that some infowars guy tried to use to sell his own brand of "anti-sissyfication" supplements (that were discovered to also have soy)

The soy "generates left wing ideology" is mainly treated as a joke now.

Soy contains phytoestrogens that can have feminizing effects, but so does beer and marijuana so it's mostly just a meme

>> No.10895191

>>10894797
And who started the whole phytoestrogens weakly bind to estrogen receptors meme? Some /pol/ larper too? The truth is, good science is distorted by people with agendas, like antivaxxers.

It can disturb female menustral cycles. Raw soy contaims antinutrients that are hundredsgfold reduced after cooking or fermenting.

If you're gonna hate on antisoy at least do it right.

>your body expels it
No, that would be through vomit. Youbre about as dumb as those soccermoms believing in the detox foot pads removing heavy metals from the body.

It's a dumb meme. Maybe some people believe it. Soylent is gross. That's not a meme.

>> No.10895272

I don't know if it's true or not but it feels best to just avoid it. The link between soyboys and soy is there for whatever reason and it's best not to associate with it.

Soy had nothing to do with it. Cosmo was traumatized after getting FUCKED live on stage by JOHN FUCKING NUMBERS. So he changed identities to pussy out of the shame.

It's even simpler than that. It has very little to do with trannies.

It has to do with nu-males virtue signalling about more "educated and healthy" than everyone else. That's it. Soy didn't make people faggy. Faggy people chose soy because it was inoffensively alternative.

I'm not sure why it's peaked the last few years. Maybe Soylent marketing, which targets the geekier branch of nu-males (don't worry about food, you can keep playing No Man's Sky all day without worying about nutrition because you can replace all your meals with Soylent!)

It's just a coincidence that soy is filled with phytoestrogens.
