    Pthalates are chemicals used in plastics that mimic estrogen in humans.

      They mimic both estrogen and testosterone. Which is why we have testosterone looking annoyed at phthalates here.

        I too would be annoyed if some stupid chemical came around and did what i did but with a mocking tone.

        Testosterone: „Allow me to increase sperm production.“
        Phtalate: „AlLOw Me tO iNcReASe SpERm prOdUcTiOn.“

          Maybe if we tell conservatives that children’s toys have HRT in them, they’ll start caring about pollution
