Description
An urgent examination of a global problem that requires vastly more attention than it currently receives. I enjoyed the tips, but ultimately, haven't we all heard that you shouldn't microwave plastic? The tips were not very useful for me...maybe other people could use the advice though. In 2005 the same publisher issued Winning Words ( ISBN 0199198748), and in 2009 What Made the Crocodile Cry? 101 questions about the English language ( ISBN 0199574154). Dent's book about dialects, How to Talk Like a Local ( ISBN 1905211791), was published in March 2010.
Again, pretty much everything I wrote above I previously read in much more cogently argued articles that are widely available. What was not covered in those articles was the question of whether or not the sudden rise in the number of gender dysphoria cases might be caused by greater exposure to anti-androgenic chemicals or endocrine disrupters (either in utero or prior to puberty). I previously assumed this phenomenon was largely (or even exclusively) the result of social contagion (i.e. teens and young adults pushing boundaries and trying to be popular or relevant). So in all honesty this question was rather intriguing and I was curious to see what the data showed. Sadly, the author spent roughly an eighth of the book speculating without any evidence one way or the other. But rest assured, she made sure to state multiple times that even if toxic chemicals are responsible for gender dysphoria, the rise of gender fluidity is something to be celebrated and embraced. OK. Thanks for that scientific analysis Doc.Trash all cleaning products that say "toxic", "hazardous", "danger", or "warning". You do not need deleterious chemicals to clean your floor. The status quo has persisted for too long—and it’s endangering the reproductive health and survival of human beings and other species. The time to correct course is overdue and more important now than ever." Dent presented Channel 4 web series Susie Dent's Guide to Swearing, which explored the etymology and history of select English swear words. [11] She has also made an appearance on BBC entertainment show Would I Lie to You?. [12] In 2018, she also appeared on five episodes of the panel show House of Games.
Dent is well known as the resident lexicographer and adjudicator for the letters rounds on Channel 4's long-running game show Countdown. On each episode, she also provides a brief commentary on the origin of a particular word or phrase. Dent is the longest-serving member of the show's current on-screen team, first appearing in 1992; she has made more than 5,000 appearances. [7] Dent also works on the spin-off show 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown. [8] Food: wash all of your fruits and vegetables. This will take off fertility-reducing chemicals applied. Get USDA organic meat so you don't ingest estrogen-laced meat. Fast. People who fasted lowered their concentration of fertility-reducing chemicals by 80-90%. Yes, they are infecting all of our food with population-reducing chemicals. Part IV: What We Can Do About This" contains 3 chapters, two of which are filled with ideas for reducing your chemical footprint. Chapter 11 includes common sense ideas such as: don't smoke, eat healthfully, and manage your stress levels. Chapter 12 has less obvious [but still kind of obvious] ideas such as: don't microwave plastic and don't use air fresheners. Another suggestion was to avoid antibacterial soaps, but it is not explained why. Do they or don't they contain endocrine disrupting chemicals? After reading the book, I have to say the podcast was much more interesting than the book itself. It was not well written. It was just hard to read with scientific jargon and not-so-interesting stories.
Filter your water, especially if you are in a city. Chemicals, medications, and other crap can get into drinking supplies, which are then ingested by you. Sneddon, Dan (4 July 2022).

Aside from the obligatory kowtows to the homosexual and transsexual, this book has a great deal of very frightening (yet enlightening) information. Our sperm counts have been dropping by 1% per year for the past 50 years, which means that we have half the sperm as did men in 1970. Only about ~10% of males today will get their sperm accepted into sperm banks. Our sperm are becoming mutated, without tails, spinning in circles, and decreasing in density and volume. Why?

Swan also links the increased presence of endocrine disruptors in the environment to changes in sexual biology and behavior across species. The effects of endocrine disruptors on wildlife have been widely studied and established, linking them with the increased numbers of intersex organisms (especially in marine life) as well as the increased incidence of same-sex sexual behaviors in organisms. Swan takes it a step further, bringing forth research establishing that humans are no exception to this pattern. Swan argues that much of what is driving what has been termed “gender fluidity”—transgenderism, homosexuality in various forms, and other sexual behaviors to a heightened frequency—is corollary of the increased presence of endocrine disruptors in the environment. Needless to say, no matter how much hard science Swan brings to bear this is a highly controversial take given the implication of homosexual behavior as “aberrant.” She takes care to disabuse the reader of notions of any malevolent or prejudicial intentions, but my sense is many will not take kindly to her points. Swan highlights all of reasons fertility is declining in the United States. It's a very sad topic to read about fertility issues and how they devastate families, but thankfully it's more on facts than stories.
