Washing your hair can lead to man-boobs. It seems that the herbal oils in many shampoos can throw off young men's hormone balance and give them tits. I see a whole new crop of lawsuits from chubby guys and steroid users who've grown boobies sueing the shampoo makers.

I think it only happens to prepubescent boys...not adolescents onwards...

I wonder what causes article spamming.

What a great prank! :)

Well, another reason to not wash my hair.

I wonder what causes article spamming.

Boredom mostly. I'm kind of tired of going over the same old debates over and over. Also I'm trying to keep things light.

The researchers suspected that the oils might be upsetting the boys' hormonal balance. So they did a series of laboratory tests to check how these oils work within human cells. The oils appeared to mimic estrogen and block the male hormone androgen.

I wonder what that means for pregnant women...

Someone should do a survey, everyone go ask your Mom if she used Tea Tree or Lavander Shampoos and bathing oils/creams etc., while they were pregnant with you... :eek:

Given that this only affects prepubescents, that might be a bit hard.

How is a fetus not a prepubescent?

Hmmmmm... a natural way to make my tits bigger...?

So... does this also apply to girls? ;)

It would help explain the 10 year olds with a C cup.

Speaking of hygiene, I took a shower this morning and the water was ice-cold. It was bullshit, I almost got hypothermia.

Speller-Wronger-Of-HYGIENE.
Lol. Don't worry. I won't tell the spelling police...
But if they find out...It was ALL YOU!! :)

Which, at least on males, tends to make things smaller.
