Just keep this guy away from teens…
Also maybe childproof that cabinet under your sink if RFK visits, I just worry that he’ll get confused and… who knows.
This week he’s all about sperm.
Last week he was all about circumcisions. https://lemmy.world/post/37218464
And before that, he was diagnosing kids by looking at them naked. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/rfk-jr-slammed-for-claiming-he-can-diagnose-kids-by-just-looking-at-them/ar-AA1Lrvlt
This guy sure thinks a lot about other people’s cocks.
It’s his ASD hyperfixation
RFK JR: “I’ve swallowed the loads of thousands of men and boys over the years and the recent decline in the amount of aperm, the taste of the sperm, and the texture of the sperm, makes my brain worms very unhappy”
Oh I’m sorry, I thought we are all behind abstinence only sex Ed, so teenagers having low sperm count shouldn’t matter to them right?
Because the 65 year old men are chugging testosterone?
I bet Doc Oz will have an OTC product for this very soon!
Sperm blaster, its all natural, full of micronutrients and makes you cum like a whale (the reason seawater is salty).
Tf are they sampling over there??
The man is a crackpot and a con artist, so anything he says on this topic is less than worthless.
Anyway, fascists are always obsessed with their stunted concepts of virility. Look at the racist concept that Black men are more sexual than white ones, or Alex Jones’s gay frogs rant.
Here’s a real fact: there is a strong correlation between a man having higher percent body fat and lower sperm motility. And if you look at long-term trends relating to body fat percentage, they’re rising like mad in the US and at a slower rate in much of Europe. Some of that might be lifestyle issues such as longer working hours and higher stress, but there’s also some evidence that certain nearly ubiquitous chemicals act as hormone disruptors.
After his mum is done with them, maybe
How anyone can look at this man and believe anything he says is insane.
I think if you can make people believe in magical beings and talking snakes, the sky is the limit.
They’re trying to justify 65 year old men raping girl children for the “birth rate”. They’re definitely not going to address the fact that families made up of consenting adults can’t afford kids. Old men raping little girls is going to be their answer.
Doesn’t matter how this administration spins it, we aren’t going to condone them fucking teenage girls.
Is he personally extracting said sperm?
Why do you think his throat sounds like that?
heroin+WORMS+ untreated voice/box defect.
from dead animals?
Pretty sure he’s operating on another level, he wonders through airports diagnosing kids and dreaming of their sperm.
“Senile government official spews nonsense in press conference”
… and the saddest part is that sentence is not specific enough, there are multiple options to choose from

sperm, not testosterone

Yeah, because it’s just that simple 🙄 /s
Not like other things are important.
I’m sure you also think you get better bread by adding extra extra yeast.
look if you want to sane wash all the stupidity, be my guess
whenever these lunatics provide credible evidence, we can talk about that

Our girls are hitting puberty six years early
Oh? What’s his supposed correct age for this?
I was taught in college that girls reach puberty earlier now than in prior centuries in part because they are exposed to light for more hours per day thanks to electrification, and puberty is in part triggered by an internal clock keeping track of how much light you’ve been exposed to in your lifetime.
Of course we leaned a lot of shit in college before the internet which turns out to be nonsense now. But I believe exposure to light is more important than we generally recognize. If you trace our evolution back to the beginning, you’ll find light sensitive cells far far earlier than anything involving actual vision.
The bigger driver of earlier age of menarche is percent body fat. For example, menarche was in the very early teens in ancient Rome, but it was mid-to-late teens in medieval Europe. The average medieval European girl was malnourished by modern standards. And now, along with better availability of calories, kids also go outside and play far less than they did a generation ago, so they’re less active, hence fatter.
There’s might also be something in the light-exposure hypothesis, except that age of menarche tends to still be lower nearer the equator than nearer the poles. Artificial lighting, if it were the cause, would have weakened that difference.
Girls are having puberty without the consent of their congressmen?!
also increased nutrition.
I would argue that since the internet we have learned a fair share of unadulterated garbage though let’s be real
It REALLY took a turn for the worse after someone showed Joe Rogan a microphone.
I learned something new today.
I also did hear that girls go through puberty sooner because girls now are fatter than they used to be due to a number of factors.
I always heard it was partly due to all the hormones we put in cows to keep them pregnant, and then we drink the milk.
That makes no sense. Hormones in your food will just be broken down in your digestive system.
Ya, my biology professor had a theory that it was because of estrogen being introduced to the water supply through birth control. After the pill was introduced breast size started increasing and girls started reaching puberty earlier. Makes sense.
So! It’s actually kinda crazy how accurate your professor might be. Because progesterone, the chemical in birth control, does indeed break down into estrogen under the right circumstances. The components of broken down progesterone pass through the body via urine, enter the water system, and - this is the important part - is far too small and difficult to be collected or filtered out of the water.
So people taking birth control have absolutley added an insane amount of estrogen to the water supply. And most tap water now does have low levels of estrogen in it because people have been taking birth control for 60+ years.
In that same time, the average age of puberty has continued to fall.
So, it sounds a bit wild, but that theory is far more feasible than most realize.
Can estrogen in water become bio-available through drinking it?
What kind of concentrations are you talking about? There’s possibly a big gap between enough to be detected and enough to affect someone’s hormonal regulation.
In that same time, the average age of puberty has continued to fall.
As it did before birth-control pills were in widespread use. And another confounding factor is that modern birth-control pills have much lower doses of hormones than the originals did, so we need to look not only at the rates of usage, but at the amount each pill contains that gets excreted.
And filtration is not the only water treatment technique. The use of highly reactive treatments such as chorine can break down such chemicals.
There’re also other endocrine disrupters in the water such as pfoa/pfos etc. We should absolutely be filtering our tap water or drinking RO water if we can.
