Testosterone isn’t like… You need a certain level to be a real man or something.

Hormones are very complex but here is something.

Low status males have more testosterone.

Men who have children have lower testosterone.

It isn’t as simple as more=better.

It likely is, in part, related to aggression when too high.

Lower levels as men get older doesn’t really seem to be a problem except advertising tells men it means they aren’t good enough anymore and definitely need to buy their products to increase it.

As a feminist I am equally appalled at the attack on men’s bodies as those on women.

I think there has been this big shift to constantly tell men there is something wrong with them and to sell them a fix.

It’s disgusting.

I watch TV sometimes (antenna, and mostly Xena or x-files) in the evening and it’s non stop erectile dysfunction medication commercials or hair loss. Or testosterone boosting supplements.

Jesus , leave men alone. They have enough shit to worry about without making them insecure about existing. The commercials are so dystopian from my female perspective.

Idk how they make men feel but nothing good.
