Beer contains magnitudes more phytoestrogens than soy.

I do not understand how soy is then to blame for phytoestrogen content when people consume more beer in their life than soy products.

That is the only reason why I mentioned beer. I do not believe phytoestrogens have any effect on male hormones.

It's quite known that getting obese has a massive effect on male hormones. The mehanistic/metabolism effect is known. We know why obese men become infertile, why they grow breasts (gynecomastia) and all the other effects of obesity.
