Absolutely ridiculous elderly lady comment

My mom just emailed me to tell me this story. My mom has this crazy aunt Thelma. She must be close to 90. She is crazy and I mean keeps chickens in the living room crazy. My mom drove past her house today and she was out in the yard so mom stops and she shows Thelma pictures of Jack. Thelma asks if I am bfing. My mom says yes, Thelma says "good, because I read that the soy in baby formula makes boy babies gay. ". WHAT?????? Ridiculous! So mom emailed me to let me know that crazy aunt thelma is still freaking nuts!

  • That may be one of the funniest things I've ever heard. I'd like to know where she "read" that!

  • LOL. Soy does have something to do with estrogen; I forget what. Maybe she's "extrapolating" a bit much :-) That's how a lot of mental illness works.

    My Uncle Jack came and visited my family once and got some sort of booster shot at the doctor's office (since he didn't have a doctor where he lived). He then had the delusion that we had him infected with AIDS. He would call crying for years...it was so sad. He's 70 now and still believes it. He was Bobby Fischers' bodyguard and best friend and a chess Grandmaster himself, so random documentary filmmakers will contact me looking for him once in a while, and it's sad to  tell them how bad his schizophrenia is and that he can't be in their film. 

    Poor Liam is pretty much descended from mad geniuses and rednecks... *sigh*

  • Once, my family was watching the show Home Time, which features a couple that builds or remodels houses together.  My grandma said, "I don't know who that woman thinks she is, with that tool belt."  I guess she should have been in the kitchen, wearing an apron?

    And my husband's great-aunt once called President Obama a "gigolo."  Um, what?! 

    Crazy old ladies . . . Huh?

    I've heard that before somewhere else. 

    There is estrogen in soy. So the thought is that if you give a boy too much estrogen, it will make him gay.

  • My Dr. told me to avoid soy while pregnant in case I was carrying a boy. He said the estrogen can mess with their development.  I didn't research it or question him any. I'm second guessing everything now though after my delivery.
