> negative reputation of soy and masculinity
That's a ruse/tactic of the meat industry, nothing more. Meat/dairy is full of estrogens, phytoestrogens are in fact protective against real estrogens.
Btw, I don't think that masculinity depends on eating corpses / animal secretions.

Most people who fling that epithet could probably improve their health outcomes with some edamame.
