Good observations on biohacking. Honestly hadn't thought much about this and what its social consequences might be. Seems related to the observation that tons of people, women especially, are on SSRIs, and at this point they're having population-level effects on our national psychology.

Meanwhile we all think declining testosterone must be a bad thing, "low T" is basically an insult among the online right, but it's a valid suggestion that a 50- or 60-year-old man with a 25-year-old's T-level is a mismatch for the wife of his youth. That's not a good thing for those of us who aim to uphold our vows.

@Spouting Thomas, the concerns about Low T are not that 60 year olds are lower than 25 year olds. The issue is 18 year olds that are below historically normal levels for a 60 year old.

I agree with your concerns about older men getting super high testosterone, whether or not thats happening is totally separate from the issues young men face.
