    and this 60 kg woman in stiletto heels is going to be applied how? Just to have a frame of reference how much it hurts...

    Or, in other words, is it more about the 60 kg of woman jumping up and down on my equipment, or about the stiletto heels?

    BPA is a pseudo-estrogen, so it makes sense that it could lead to ED. It is generally found in clear plastics (added to make them less brittle). You might recognize the taste of the stuff, since it taints most bottled water. I am not paranoid about too many environmental pollutants, but lets just say I use a glass water bottle at work and have for several years now.

    That being said, I am not too concerned about my consumer electronics containing BPA. Very few of them are clear (where the higher concentrations are) and I don't tend to lick them.

    Of course if clear plastic computer cases could lead to ED, I worry about all the old school Mac fanboys from 8 years ago, as I suspect there might have been some licking going on.

    Top 3 things I'm doing after reading this story:
    1. Stripping my house of plastic.
    2. Buying a glass water bottle.
    3. Getting laser eye surgery.

    Thanks Rosa. #bisphenolacausesimpotence
