If I'm reading correctly, then yes. DHT and estrogen are the only sex hormones with negative feedback loops, because when they rise above normal levels they can become dangerous to health and well being. T has no feedback loop itself, and higher levels of T itself provide no negative effects... it's the down stream products, estrogen and DHT which can be alleviated via aromatase and 5-alpha reductase inhibition. It's those hormones which cause the liver to produce more SHBG - especially as we ag…

There are plenty of research articles regarding DHT. There are also plenty of articles by weightlifters and athletes detailing subjective results regarding the effects of DHT and aggression. There are steroids sold that specifically mimic DHT (because it doesn't convert to estrogen) and they come with warnings/sales pitch that they raise aggression. Human synthesis of DHT from Testosterone is strictly limited for this reason, and because it can cause unwanted organ growth and hardening (includin…

This again totally fails to understand that it is DHT, not testosterone, that causes aggression.

"Promiscuity gene"... I just couldn't stop laughing.

It should be noted that testosterone itself has never been shown to increase aggression, but rather DHT, a much more powerful androgen made from testosterone is responsible for aggression. Normally the body keeps a tight lid on DHT reduction from testosterone (3-4% in females and 4-6% in males). Yet when persons, male or female, exogenously raise testosterone levels beyond normal without a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, they exponentially raise their DHT levels.

While it all sounds good, I don't see where cheating in monogamous relationships is taken into account... is it then REALLY monogamy. Martin van Creveld (The Privileged Sex) has extrapolated from a women's magazine survey that up to 50% of women have cheated; I can hardly believe that men would do much better. Taking care of children and spouses is a matter of responsibility... feeling it. Some don't. Jealousy is also something many don't control, and still exists even within monogamy; it even g…

Here we go... Alex Vasquez... https://ndnr.com/endocrinology/orthoendocrinology-an-anti-inflammatory-approach-to-dysendocrinism/ This is a different article than the first I read in the American Journal of Rheumatology (?) about 5 years ago in my rheumy's office. It's funny, as I was so excited by the article I tried to discuss it w the rheumatologist, but he dismissed discussion as though it it's not valid unless the pharma rep brings it up. I even had to explain to him what pregnenolone is!!! …

I have a link to one of his articles. Give me some time to find it and I'll post it it here 😊

Vasquez is an endocrinologist with some articles out there dealing w the issue of inflammation and arthritis. Following his advice, I''ve been taking pregnenolone and DHEA to increase test and lower cortisol and SHBG; grape seed extract to lower conversion to estrogen. I'm 60, and before starting this a few years ago, I was walking bent over like a 90 yo, bit I'much better now, and my joints, Achilles, and flare-ups (rib enthisitus) are no where near as painful as they were

I agree concerning the androgens and immune suppression. I prefer to refer to it as regulation. I have psoriatic arthritis, and raising test, dhea, pregnenolone are key to controlling inflammation and encouraging repair (Vasquez).

It would be interesting to see if the researcher could break down further into whether it is high testosterone level or metabolites (estrogen & DHT) which are responsible for specific negative functions.

Yes, and no. The woman without self esteem issues is rare, yet, the woman who isn't confident she's all that over a man is rare.

I'm not so sure you can concentrate on father's authorization. I'm in the US. My father (b:1924) was uncircumcised, yet my mother had all four sons cut. My father said he was never asked, and my mother said they "just did it". My first son was born in 1987. My wife and I had discussed this and I left her at the hospital that night with the clear indication we would decide the next day (she was for it for "health" reasons and looks). When I arrived the next day she had already authorized it, I wa…

I was blown away by the post "On the Sexual Assault of Men". Is there similar research that factors DV numbers into societal violence numbers? Is the size and weight of the victim a factor in leaving out the possibility that women, by actual numbers and/or psychology, are just as violent society wide (not just more prone as in DV)? Do women WANT to commit violence society wide that they just can't get away with because their victim may be bigger or stronger?

"If Lifetime-style true crime plays on women’s fears that their husbands will kill them, narco melodramas are mostly about men’s fantasies about violence and money, access to women, and bro honor codes. Kings of Miami is full of references to The Godfather, Scarface, and Pulp Fiction, something of a postmodern wink at the tropes of the mob crime genre. But it rarely departs from those conventions. When women appear in Kings of Miami, it’s often only to provide colorful background for the men, ev…

So being laughed at makes it impossible? How many times have your co-workers laughed at you, your skills, etc...? Be honest. There are women who have endured, but to say women don't choose these fields or jobs because of egging is egregiously pathetic. Men get laughed at by their co-workers everywhere. How many men have you questioned their ability to do their job? Should women get a pass on workplace bullshit because they're women? I'm 60, and in all my years I've seen 1 (one!) garbage woman wh…

Bullshit. Women earn more college degrees than men, they just don't choose STEM by and large. Women aren't lining up at the Career Center to learn HVAC, police training, fire fighting, etc... Hell, women, particularly feminists, still refuse universal draft registration. This isn't 1920, it's 2020, and women have had choice for 50+ years. What they choose is to not do these jobs and to pick fights with the men who do.

The author believes feminist authors and heroines (for the most part privileged white western women) have racial underpinnings. She has an article describing this recounting the founders of the feminist movement.

It's no joke. And she spells out in other articles what she means by that.
