Saw this interesting article about some of the impacts of smirking pot.

It is fairly harmless, in general. But there maybe some undesired consequences. Like Moobs due to increased estrogen levels.

I fail to find that compelling or convincing, it seemed like more speculation than science.
There are so many candidates for hormone-disruptive effects in our everyday environment,
such as pollution with all manner of newly invented toxins and technologies.
Don't want to get all political, so...

Americans consume way more unfermented soy, which is extremely estrogenic, than marijuana, so if you are going to look for man boobs coming from an ingestible, look towards people that eat processed food from supermarkets and fast food joints, i.e. just about everyone you know.

You're right...and there's estrogen mimicking, gender-bending chemicals in a lot our food and our drink.
