Can men go through menopause?

Post by Think »

Me and my wife returned from Clint Eastwoods latest brilliance, [size=-1]Changeling [/size][size=-1]and a tear was just about to burst out of my tear ducks so I quickly started to think about politics and I was fine.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME.

Good Night 2:00am E.S.T. :D

I was actually thinking the same thing last night.....the wife had me watching a couple of her tear jerkers over the weekend. One was some movie with Lance Hendrickson, where he was diagnosed with cancer. The evening he had to tell his wife....I started welling up, as I was remembering back when my dad had it.

Then the very end of Titanic, where Rose as the old lady stood on the stern railing of the research ship over the wreck site..and tossed the necklace overboard, running through her good memories. Guess that hits me more now that I'm older, starting to have a bank full of memories.

It has nothing to do with menopause. Why is it when men are shocked when their emotional side comes to the surface? You're human. Remember? :)

Nope

The emotional side has always been there. There is nothing wrong with a man showing his emotional side. It is not a weakness. Trust me. ;)

That is ego/testosterone/history throughout the ages talking. :rotfl: ;)

...and just because you show emotion does not mean you are not strong.

Naugh, it's just all the estrogen and other hormones in your food giving you a hormonal imbalance ;)

Contraceptive Hormones Mutating Fish in St. Lawrence River

By Hilary White

MONTREAL, September 18, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Estrogen from birth control pills in highly populated areas of Canada is washing into the water table and flooding the St. Lawrence River, a new study has found. University of Montreal researchers said that the St. Lawrence River near Montreal has an alarmingly high level of estrogens that are mutating male fish.

....

In 2006, the United States Geological Survey undertook the first nation-wide study of estrogens as a water pollutant and found a dramatic upsurge in the number of male fish growing female reproductive parts. A survey of bass in the Potomac River found almost 100 percent of the smallmouth bass species were feminized, or had eggs in their testes.

I suppose. My wife heard that all this extra Soy additives in our food are causing men to become more 'feminine' :wth: . Apparently it can effect you sperm reproduction and in MadDoctors case - grow a vagina and the side of you head!

That's it! I'm back to meat and potatoes without a fork and knife!

If you are married long enough, yes, we suffer through menopause as well....just without the hot flashes.

Crying about the movie Titanic is pretty suspect. :D
