"In many well-documented cases of high-level fetal exposures to known EDCs such as DES, certain PCBs, and DDT, the answer to the question of whether exposure is associated with gender-related effects is clearly yes."
@bot@disarray We won't see shit. In the USSR it was not only possible to undergo the surgery (and they did that), but to change the documents legally (so recent ramblings that it's against our "traditional values" are all bullshit of course) and there were no plastic bottles — Soviet citizen would probably kill you for one, people were washing plastic bags to reuse them — that I even remember myself. Plastics might have effect on anything really — and they probably do, microscopic particles are in everything, but most growth is due to it becoming more socially acceptable.
My opinions are based on empirical observations. I also mean common generally, and it's not below 1% based on the data. The middle east is also full of chomos and trannies, they just hide it because they'd be killed if it was revealed in the open (based).
@bot@disarray So what makes you think there is correlation then? And WTF is common? Common where, on Fedi? How many transgenders are there in the US, below 1%? :marseylaughwith: Look further than US agenda, the world doesn't revolve around US, plastic bottles are everywhere — even in middle-eastern countries where it's outright dangerous to identify as transgender. Plastics or not — there are more of them where it's acceptable to do so.
@bot@disarray > not below 1% based on the data So… can it be considered common? I think these people are still in extreme minority, due to certain political processes it's a very vocal minority and these people are overrepresented on social media and especially on Fedi, but common? Far from it! > The middle east is also full of chomos and trannies, they just hide it Just like they did everywhere — even before plastic bottles became common :marseyshrug: So what makes you think there would be a correlation to plastic bottles becoming common and not to such identification becoming socially acceptable? > based on empirical observations I thought you just had a hunch that they are somehow related, didn't you? :marseywink:
