I know it can be bad for your health when you step in a puddle of it on a nice smooth hangar floor...

If you get it on your cloths and sit in it, it may turn you into a girl and you will end up with a high squeaky voice. If you are a girl, you will grow a beard and your voice will go deep.
Seriously, go to the supplier and or your local FBO or your immediate supervisor because the chemical manufacturer will have safety and hazard or health product info.
Most refuelers should have the info.

The average pilot, despite the somewhat swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy and caring.
These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

^Yeah, ask them for the MSDS, they have to show it to you.

I never liked the stuff, always thought it would cause health problems later on. I would snap when they were deicing the plane just upwind of me.

I also understand it has harmful pysiological effects on women...... I don't know exactly what it is, but they wouldn't let any women on the deicing crew.

Northern Skies is right. By law, the MSDS has to be available to you.
