Read/watch about the context of the "soyboy" meme. Weakened and demoralized people are easier to control.
This is due to the presence of phytoestrogens in soy specifically. Soy contains isoflavones which in the human body (and some animals) are recognized as estrogens by our cell receptors which messes with the body's testosterone production thereby weakening males who ingest soy in large amounts.
Not all plants contain isoflavones or other types of phytoestrogens.
Soy and other legumes also contain other anti-nutrients called lectins which prevent nutrient absorption in the intestines. Eating uncooked beans is really not good for nutrient absorbtion.
That's right. Other point not that often discussed is how soy is the main source of plant protein used by the food industry. Also, seed oils.
