Chemicals In the Water Aren’t Turning Frogs Gay, But They Might Create Transgendered Fish
In a recent study, researchers found that chemicals released into aquatic ecosystems from contraceptives and other chemically engineered products are causing genetic mutations in fish populations, and even turning them into the opposite gender. According to the report, a fifth of male fish has suffered mutations that have made them transgendered because of chemicals from contraceptive pills being flushed down household drains.
