I think we are largely on the same page. My only issue with claims that testosterone drives violence and not that violent or confrontational situations spike testosterone is that it makes it "not men's fault" or "not in their control" when it very clearly is to a large extent or at least that of a patriarchal culture and the way it socializes men. I am sick unto death of some men acting like this is " just their nature" or what is "innate for men" so that they don't have to take responsibility for themselves or for the ways this cultures harms us all - including them.

Other cultures with men with normal levels of testosterone don't have the same levels of violence and domination of women. That's the bottom line for me but I do have a lot of respect for you and what you put out into the world.
