Yes, but not the genetics of humans. My guess would be that the genetics of the soybean plants would be a more likely culprit for any strange hormonal reaction

Yes, but not the genetics of humans. My guess would be that the genetics of the soybean plants would be a more likely culprit for any strange hormonal reactions in men:
HT soybeans went from 17 percent of U.S. soybean acreage in 1997 to 68 percent in 2001 and 93 percent in 2013

The reality is that soybeans aren't genetically modified for nutritional reasons; they are modified for economic reasons, and GE foods haven't been around long enough for us to really know what kind of side-effects come from optimizing for the herbicide-tolerant "economics" side of GE.
