I've been drinking Soymilk instead of milk, and I eat a lot of cereal. A lot of people have told me that Soymilk can give a guy extra estrogen and make him grow bitch tits. I was wary of this a guy who already has slight manboobs. Yet I seem to be getting stronger, and more cut. Almost like I've been taking Andro or some over the counter steroid. Is this normal?
 
It's called leading a healthy lifestyle. There are no directly androgenic compounds in soymilk, nor do the levels of dietary estrogens (polyphenols etc in soy) really get to appreciable levels in most people. Even in products like e.g. horomone treated beef or chicken, there's not much to be concerned about unless you are intaking high levels everyday.

Unless you drink serious quantities of soymilk, more than a gallon a day, I wouldn't be worried about the estrogenic qualities of soymilk. Growing bitch tits and the like is a sign of a sedentary lifestyle or a serious horomone imbalance and shouldn't happen in most people.
