Still reeling from yesterday’s “People’s Pharmacy” column

I don’t know if you saw it. But there was an item in a medical advice column in yesterday’s features section suggesting that tea tree oil was a potential catalyst for a feminizing hormonal reaction in men.

The hell?

I wonder how many men who read that took a long, hard look at their shampoo bottle this morning.

The same column also cast doubt on the wisdom of men coming in contact with lavender.

It’s a pretty sad state of affairs. A guy just wants to be clean and fresh and he has to worry about creating a hormonal imbalance?

I’m open to hearing conspiracy theories, if you have one.
