hist-brewing: natural estrogenic compounds

[Richard]

Well, again, like with things such as licorice that lower your testosterone
level by 40%, there are things science is just now becoming aware of that us
men need to avoid.  Plus, I don't think we are supposed to have estrogen.
If so, I don't know what it's "purpose" would be in the male body.  women
need testosterone for a number of things, but vice versa I don't think is
the case.  I could be wrong as I am not an expert in endocrinology.
Plus, for me I think the number one reason to not use hops is the sleepiness
effect.  Basically put, I don't want to drink beer to get tired, I want to
drink it and get FESTIVE!  ;)
