When I was talking about homosexuality and same-sex marriage in an online English conversation, the tutor introduced me to this article.
Yes, it’s true: tofu makes you gay – Boston.com
“tofu makes you gay”
“I can’t believe it! If that’s true, Japan is full of gay people.”
When I told her, she introduced me to another article.
Evo Morales: Chicken hormones will make you gay – Foreign Policy
“Chicken hormones will make you gay”
“I can’t believe it! If that were true, the world would be full of gay people.”
But she says it’s “based on science.” She stubbornly stuck to her claim.
So I said, “Filipinos people eat a lot of chicken, right? But gays are a minority,” then she finally agreed a bit.
人をゲイにする食べ物？
オンライン英会話で、同性愛や同性婚の話を話題にしていたら、こんな記事を紹介してくれた。
Yes, it’s true: tofu makes you gay – Boston.com
“tofu makes you gay（豆腐はあなたをゲイにします）”
「んなバカな。もしそれが本当なら、日本はゲイで溢れかえってるやんけ」
と話したら、また別の記事を紹介してくれた。
Evo Morales: Chicken hormones will make you gay – Foreign Policy
“Chicken hormones will make you gay（チキンホルモンはあなたをゲイにする）”
「んなバカな。もしそれが本当なら、世界中でゲイで溢れかえってるやんけ」
と話すと、
「いや、ちゃんと科学に基づいた話だから」
と頑なに譲らなかったが、
「フィリピンってチキンよく食べるよね？ でもゲイはマイノリティじゃん」
と話したら、ようやく少し納得してくれた。
