Is that what I am? A low T male? I've never been competitive, I don't work out, I don't try to be cool, I surround myself with cats, and I'm pretty good at decorating. Shit, I've been joking with my wife for years (in regards to the decorating) that I was probably supposed to be gay but it didn't quite pan out. Turns out I'm just Low T. But I'm also a good father, I own a set of tools, I eat a lot of turkey sandwiches (high tryptophan), I can change a tire, and I take care of the house and the yard. Does that offset the Low T? Or is it like.. you're born with Low T, you die with Low T?

Where my LTs at?

It's like you just described me but instead of decorating I do most of the cooking. Low T males unite, there are probably dozens of us

I don't think that means either of you have hormonal imbalances, I think you're just good dudes.

Hbomberguy did a testosterone test after repeatedly being called a 'soyboy' and his testosterone was actually higher than average. It's just a chemical the body uses to turn on certain genes, it's not 'manly personality juice'.

Oh I don't think I actually have low testosterone, I'm just joking about what "masculinity" means and how it is nonsense to define it by how much of one hormone someone has
