Phthalate's are "plasticizers" - chemicals added to make plastics durable, flexible, transparent (ie. like every single water bottle). Its been increasingly shown that "Phthalates act by mimicking the female hormone estrogen, which in turn inhibits production of the male hormone testosterone. As such, phthalates are considered to be endocrine disruptors" [1] In fact, Phthalates are one of the candidates to explain the significant drop in male sperm production [2]. The point here is its possible that the effects of plastics are much more significant than anyone realizes...how much of the LGBT / gender identity issues could be related to environmental toxins?
