The Internet is Not What It Seems

James, while I understand your anger, it would seem as though Hetracil isn't a real product, and is just a (fairly elaborate and subtle) hoax.

Resources:

• http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/weblog/permalink/hetracil_anti_effeminate_medication/
• http://homomojo.com/life.php?itemid=432
• If that weren't enough, the whois info for hetracil.com points to J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, the religious figurehead of the Church of the SubGenius. Anyone who doesn't know that organisation's history needs to spend some more time Learning To Love the WikiPedia.
