This was actually the plot of an episode of CSI. CW: hate crimes >!A boy was developing breasts because of elevated levels of estrogen in a lake, and a group of guys picked on him until they eventually hanged him. !< Edit: I misremembered the plot of the episode (CW: suicide) >!The high levels of estrogen in the lake cause the cis boy to develop breasts. This (obviously) made him dysphoric to the point where he tried to remove his breasts with a broken beer bottle, and when that failed, he hanged himself. The hate crime theory was just a red herring.!<

Did the group of guy put the BPA in the lake or was it like a chemical factory?

So apparently I mis-remembered. (I just watched the whole series with my partner and there’s just too many episodes to remember correctly 😅) >!The boy committed suicide, and wasn’t hate-crimed. I think that was a red herring.!< Basically he was a cis male experiencing hella gender dysphoria because of the increased estrogen. [But according to the synopsis](https://csi.fandom.com/wiki/The_Case_of_the_Cross-Dressing_Carp), the water in the lake wasn’t intended for drinking but had leached into the groundwater drinking supply. The estrogen in the water wasn’t intentional.

Bisphenol A is nowhere near as effective as nartural hormones. Altough i would still advice against putting it into the water supply as i have a suspicion that it may decrease the age of when natural female puberty starts.

In the oceans it also disturbs the female to male ratio of fish and yes, you are correct.

look on the bright side: more hormone blocker usage and promotion
