to think this won't give my husband tits?

[tithusband]

My H was about to go downstairs so I asked him to put my empty oestrogen gel bottle in the recycling.

He leapt back, and cried ' Aaargh! Aargh! I can't touch that! That is dangerous to me and the boys!' and ran down the stairs.
My sons says he has now told them they must never touch these bottles, not even if they get knocked onto the floor, as they are very dangerous for men and boys.

AIBU to think this is a compete over-reaction? There might be a small amount of trace oestrogen on the outside of the bottle, I guess, but such a teeny tiny amount as a one off is surely not going to make any man grow tits?

I used internal estrogen cream for a while, DH still had sex with me. The tits he has are the result of too many pies.

Yes, we cross posted. It is an actual problem. The bottle touching is probably overkill though…

Very funny OP but I'm struggling to believe it! 😁

I agree with the first comment. If that is his view then surley all physical contact, Affection and sex needs to be off the table so he doesn't start sprouting a pair of DDs 🤷🏼‍♀️

God help all the male pharmacists who handle this item daily, poor sods.

😂😂😂

I think in reality it probably absorbs quite quickly into your blood stream.

But if I’m honest, if I were a guy, I probably wouldn’t prod round in a freshly oestrogeled vagina too often…

No need. He's a big enough tit, already x

😂😂😂😂😂😂

That is so bonkers of him that it's funny 😁

:) :) :)

😂😂😂😂 Oh yeah please do this!!

This
he might be making a big deal of it but fundamentally he’s not wrong. It’s generally accepted that there is a risk to men from this (and likewise to women who’s partners are receiving testosterone in this way) so I’m not sure why so many posters are quite so keen to laugh at him.

id agree with keeping it well out of the way of any kids in the house

Hang on a second @Calliopespa . Are you saying that the OP, and every other sexually active woman on HRT gel, should be showering it off and therefore not benefitting from it whenever she has sex? How would that work?

Love this!

Don't mock him; he's absolutely right.

I've saved a fortune and now have the most beautifully luxuriant hair, ever since I realised that I don't need to actually buy and actively let products interact with my hair - I just walk along the haircare aisle in Superdrug a couple of times a month and fondle all the various desired bottles.

@ShaggyPutItOnWhatAPongItGaveHimTheShakesNShivers you've just explained my weight problem!!!! I've been picking up packets of fattening items in the supermarket, just to look at them, and the residue on the outside has absorbed into my skin causing a three stone weight gain!!

I was once going up on an escalator in a busy store, when the dirty person in front of me did a loud and noxious trump that hit me square on.

Ever since, I just keep spouting rubbish, shouting "MAGA!" all the time and telling everybody that I'm a genius and the best in the world at just about everything. I've got a fabulous huge house, though!

Won't give him tits but he's certainly acting like one

Clever! 💊🧐

Was he serious?

If so, he's bonkers.

@Calliopespa The transfer risk is for one hour after applying.

Because no-one is laughing at him for thinking that regular exposure to detectable levels of oestrogen is bad for him. People are laughing at him for thinking that handling the bottle that contains oestrogen on a one off will be bad for him.

i don't know about growing tits, he sounds like he already is a bit of a tit though

He already is a massive tit. It's too late for him, sorry.

I’d have actually said ‘you can’t possibly be a bigger tit than you already are so the bottle is fine to handle’. I don’t like the word stupid, but he really is. Utterly stupid.
