Beer is bad for you, official

[Fat Albert]

Yesterday, scientists suggested that, considering the results of a recent analysis by Professor I M S Loshed, which revealed the presence of female hormones in beer, men should take a concerned look at their beer consumption.

The theory is that beer contains female hormones (hops contains phytoeostrogens) and drinking it makes men turn into women or at the least, emphasises their feminine aspects.

To test the theory, 50 men were fed 6 pints of beer each within one hour period. It was then observed that 100% of the men:

- talked excessively without making sense;

- became overly emotional;

- couldn't drive;

- couldn't park,

- failed to think rationally;

- argued over nothing;

- had to sit down while urinating; and

- refused to apologize when obviously wrong.

No further testing was considered necessary.

Mrs Westy in fact commented on this oldie some time ago, so has no other comment to make apart from At least women can remember things
