"You drink soymilk? But what about all the hormones?!" -Lots of people

My rant:
I often get asked this question. I think soymilk gets a bad rep and this irks me. It is true that soy has some naturally occurring hormones and that it should be consumed in moderation... But when is the last time you heard of death by soymilk? Never, right? On the other hand, people die everyday from high cholesterol. What has cholesterol in it? Animal's milk. On top of that, cows milk has more hormones in it than soymilk. I mean, in addition to all the hormones that are injected into the cows, what is more hormonal than a pregnant animal? Milk is the secretion from a recently pregnant animal's tit-- you are getting what that animal has. If you are really scared of hormones, drink rice or nut milk. ^_^

I say again... Pro-soy, anti-soy, or ambivalent-- keep the comments (if you even have any) friendly (about soy or non-soy that is, feel free to bash my photo >_^) . I don't want this to become one of *those* walls.
