- jijji 6y agoThe body of evidence about the effects of endocrine disruptors/gender bending chemicals on the destruction of species is many decades in the making. Axios is just one of many to publish such stories: [1] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2726844/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2726844/ [2] https://www.epa.gov/chemical-research/research-endocrine-disruptors https://www.epa.gov/chemical-research/research-endocrine-dis...

- Larrikin 6y agoI'm way more wary of people who post a lot, have been on the site for nearly a decade, and get everything they post voted down and flagged on a consistent basis.
- kludgeon 6y agotouche, i bit.
- jijji 6y agoyeah if anything I'm saying doesn't make any sense to you or it's wrong then it makes sense to downvote it, right? but when people provide evidence to prove otherwise, not sure why the down votes happen. One thing I do see about this site is that it is quite ironic that the majority of downvoted comments actually are the most insightful, and maybe that's because people just cannot handle the truth. you be the judge. Down vote me some more, it seems to make everyone feel better when they do that.
