@shannon dove that’s the thing, that’s WHY you can’t get a woman. Back in the day a man had to work hard to even see a naked woman (talking to a woman, taking her out on dates, proving yourself to be a man, showing the many products of your success, etc) where as these days men get it for free at the click of their fingers. See what I’m saying? If you’re fat you’d work out to attract women, if you’re broke you’d study and/or get a well paying job to attract a wife, etc. It’s way too easy nowadays since you don’t have to work on yourself to see a woman naked let alone a woman having sex (you still aren’t the one having sex so you lose every time). That’s one of the reasons why men have testosterone, it’s motivation to better yourself to attract a mate. Men are amazing as is but especially when they utilise their testosterone, it’s literally the backbone to every society and what has helped build the ancient and modern world

Now whenever I get complimented, I can never take it seriously, in fact, I always feel like I'm being made fun of. Additionally, I'm a very anxious person, social interaction is hard and I can only interact with women from a professional or friendly POV, which deepens my feelings of inadequacy and subordination. That said, I'm physically fit, I'm considered smart by everyone around me and I guess that by most's standards, I'm successful. Going to try to be more dominant from today onwards.

Something I feel is important to add to the discussion is that acute changes in testosterone are normal, and micromanaging these is not only unlikely to lead to positive outcomes, but also complicate life needlessly. Heavy squatting and other compound lifts, for example, has been shown to produce a great spike in testosterone. This has led to a lot of ineffective advice being given; always include heavy compounds to produce a test spike and maximize anabolism. There is no evidence that this actually works, and you wouldn't expect it to if you understand that what matters for anabolism is the area under the curve over time.

If testosterone is so directly linked to social dominance, why does it reduce due to marriage and fatherhood? Does having a family make you instantly less dominant? The relation between testosterone and dominance should be more complicated to account for this.
@aphr0d3 жыл бұрын
That’s not it at all. You have less testosterone because you’ve settled down and can enjoy meaningful relationships you’ve tried so hard to acquire (because of the testosterone). Take a look at the hormones that increase after getting married and having a baby.

Testosterone makes you seek a mate. When you find one, it drops to a level where the seeking behavior is more in the background and other hormones like vasopressin rise to ensure that you keep bonding with that mate to keep raising high-quality offspring, plus those hormones raise your life expectancy. Some of those hormones actually make you more dominant, but in a much more considerate and family-oriented way than the ego-dominance of testosterone. An unhappy or incompatible bond can reduce those hormones, causing depression and health problems due to the low level of all hormones. That is for the majority of people, but not for some. For some their testosterone level never drops and they usually don't produce offspring in the modern world due to making many shallow bonds due to the seeking behavior not weakening or produce low quality offspring (single mothers/serial cheating problems leading to parental fighting and secrecy leading to disconnection between family members) but probably higher quantity of offspring. Those are also the people the majority of non-bonded (and unhappily bonded) people compare themselves to because they seem to have a much better chance at finding more high-quality mates. Basically, your body already has a reproductive strategy, be it quality or whatever.
@zaheerahman72663 жыл бұрын
It IS more complicated. The research suggests that men with lower T are more likely to be and stay married to begin with. This is all about investment tradeoffs and life history theory. Basically you either invest in reproduction or longevity. You either have a fast life strategy: having lots of sex, spreading your seed, earlier death, displays of aggression, competing for dominance and status, and high T. OR you have a slow life strategy: low T, less dominance, longer lifespan, more monogamous and a focus on investing resources into one relationship. This is why the act of committing in a relationship lowers T, because high T is conducive to fast life strategies and polygamous reproduction. Men who ARE married and have higher T don't stay monogamously married for long..

I remember hearing about a study which completely contradicts what your saying: Reachers would get football supporters to spit in a tube and they noted which team they were on. After the match they did the same. They both had increased testosterone, but the loosing team had much higher testosterone. Its speculated that this is because when a team wins they are more protective of their status, when your body thinks your status is threatened it increases testosterone.

I found glaring problems with this one... It is a correlation, not a causation for the higher status males to have higher testosterone levels. I see no evidence presented here to PROVE anything was directly causing anything else. And the argument could easily be made that BECAUSE they had higher levels of test, is why they achieved the higher status, and not the other way around. Get it ~ It surprised me that this wasn't even mentioned. Additionally, using the same logic, it's perhaps the men with low testosterone are the ones that prefer to use Instagram, instead of the argument made here that it actually causes it. The fact is, we don't yet know either way.

@DrJones-nv1io3 жыл бұрын
You make an excellent point, except we do have evidence that it is causation. Take a look at the body of literature on "winner-loser effects". In animal models we can manipulate the outcomes of winning/losing fights by rigging the outcome of fights. For example we can pair a randomly selected male with a really crappy male that we know will likely lose in order to experimentally generate winners. With these methods, we still see winners experience a "winner effect" that translates into boosts in testosterone, increase in social status, higher odds of winning another fight, and higher success in obtaining mates.

@aititnas anybody who knows basic biology and psychology would know that you can’t claim anything as ‘evident’ or ‘intuitive’ without actual evidence.

@FirstNameLastName-rh6zc2 жыл бұрын
There are plenty of examples of people with hypogonadism or clinically low test levels that came up in bloodworks that got TRT and the boost in testosterone directly translated to more confidence and success in general. CEOs of companies who are woman also have higher than average testosterone levels, there's plenty to look at that shows this effect to be real, even through observations and testing of animals in the wild and seeing testosterone levels before and after fights etc. When he have a debate/confrontation with someone even just an ideological fight of wits if you feel you came out on top you will get a testosterone spike.

It seems What I've Learned planned this video backwards: he let his low-testosterone hypothesis inform his research, setting the stage for yet another lesson in confirmation bias, much like many of his other videos about heart disease, cholesterol and diet. No other viewpoints are considered, only his, making for an unconvincing video. This video makes massive leaps of faith and is a gross oversimplification of a variety of topics whose complexity has not been given any respect. The author is trying to directly link mental health, depression, mood, status, hierarchies, anxiety, visual feedback, human interaction to testosterone levels, when the evidence for a causal relationship or even a correlation is contradictory, scarce and unreliable, even if it may weakly point in a certain direction. For example, aromatase inhibitors, as well as SERMs and SARMs significantly raise testosterone, but not a single positive health outcome has been proven in men in terms of mental health and muscle mass. It would also help to include all citations in the video description.
