Dutch scientists: Your headphones are making you gay.

A lab in the Netherlands performed tests on numerous headphones and found them to possess xenoestrogenic compouns (xecs), which mimic hormones, that can cause neurodevelopmental problems and the feminization of males.

Leading products from Bose, Panasonic, Samsung and some Sennheiser headphones and other companies are now being pulled off the shelves.

Notable on the list of headphones possessing dangerous levels of these chemicals are gaming headphones from Razer.

“Daily use – especially during exercise when heat and sweat are present – accelerates this migration directly to the skin.”

From the study: Bisfenol A (BPA). Easy to enter your body through your skin when you wear the headphones for long or when you sweat while having them on. Even small quantities can weaken your immune system, cause fertility issues and allergic rashes.
