There is some evidence that some chemicals in the environment is leading to less masculine boys and contributing to an increase in homosexuality. My common sense meter tells me that this is true. In fact, toxins in polluted streams have caused fish to become female, scientists have discovered, so why wouldn’t they affect human babies in the womb.
Of course, as many things, environmental influences (chemical toxins, nutritional factors, and emotional factors) interact with genetic factors. Not every person exposed to carcinogens gets cancer. Not every smoker gets COPD or lung cancer.
But studies are starting to come out that plastics do disrupt hormones in humans, and this can definitely affect babies in the womb, and their development.
Now a new study has found that altering the androgens of a fetus during early pregnancy – this time by by-products of PVC (the plastic pipes found in most home plumbing) – can not only alter the gender of the brain but can change the formation of the genitals in the newborn.
Environmentally caused HomosexualityA study of 145 preschool children reports in the International Journal of Andrology, for the first time, that when the concentrations of two common phthalates in mothers’ prenatal urine are elevated their sons are less likely to play with male-typical toys and games, such as trucks and play fighting.
