Read about it on Wikipedia. It linked to the article:
A preliminary finding presented at the
Endocrine Society's conference last month could prompt parents to read product labels more closely. The unpublished
research suggests that shampoos, soaps and body lotions containing lavender and tea tree oils -- commonly added for
their aromas and marketing cachet -- may cause hormonal imbalances and breast growth in young boys.
The study
was carried out by scientists at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) after a Denver
pediatric endocrinologist reported abnormal breast development, known as gynecomastia, in five boys, aged 4 to 7,
who used products containing the oils. The symptoms subsided after the boys stopped using the products.
I'm really glad I read that, cause I just purchased a lavender shower gel at the dollar store yesterday. I'm
already worried about breast growth as it is, as it's a side effect of Propecia.

Right, lavender --> breasts and
Beer puts hair on yer chest. Uh-huh. I think you'd have to bathe in it, drink it, and frigging dance around in
fields of it for a few years before noticing anything.
And the "dancing around in it"
part would be the deciding factor.
