Not to mention the estrogen effects on the male body caused by soy. (Yes, the studies say it doesn’t affect testosterone levels of men, but men also need a certain level of estrogen to be healthy and too much..not good)

The studies show it doesn't affect testosterone levels because the phytoestrogens in soy for the most part don't react with estrogen receptors to trigger a response from your body (at least not when going through normal digestive mechanisms). The amount of phytoestrogens you consume has no causal relation to the amount of estrogen in your hormone system.
