      He’s one of the smartest youtubers I routinely watch. And yeah, crazy high testosterone, although you might never guess. I generally would assume someone with that much testosterone would have some facial hair.

        im guessing he also has some degree of androgen insensitivity. having crazy high testosterone youd expect large muscles, lots of facial hair, male pattern baldness, a low voice, but hes not that big, has at least thin facial hair that he shaves, a full head of hair, and a relatively high voice. idk if any version of androgen insensitivity is associated with very high testosterone levels but i wouldn’t be surprised.

        At that level of androgen, some of the androgen will be transformed into estrogen.

          Yes! Free oestrogen is not actually a particularly good thing if you’re not on antiandrogens and pointless if you are. E-maxxing is sadly money down the drain.

        That’s not how testosterone works. It’s not fuel, it’s just a signal. Everyone’s neutral baseline is calibrated differently depending on developmental events mainly in the womb. It’s not about how much absolute testosterone you have in a snapshot, it’s about how much higher or lower you are than your own personal baseline. Your body will tend to maintain near your baseline, which might be much higher or lower than someone else’s baseline, while “meaning” the same thing.

        IIRC that’s why most labs require multiple samples but IANAMD.

        Transient elevation is possible without long term aberrant effects, though the result will have to be explained to future doctors and insurance underwriters who will want to know if it was due to poorly-managed / self-administered HRT or an unchecked gonadal growth. If neither of those things, and no other symptoms present, it’s treated as normal.

        He’s posted very little on it. Last we heard they didn’t find any cancers or anything and he wasn’t really suffering from it. He had some strange symptoms and it it just came up in tests that didn’t like up with what he was there for. But it was really really high.

          It wasn’t so much that they wanted a gray character; early printing just didn’t do color all that well and a lot of characters started out gray because of printing errors.

          Oh okay. I missed that dark beast got a new body. I’m assuming dark beast (evil beast) is the same one from the AoA timeline.

          I think I remember reading about Krakoa and Beast goes a little bit too evil with X-Force. Someone brings a beast from the past to talk sense into Krakoa beast. I haven’t been reading the more recent runs.

      In case anybody is wondering about this answer, here’s Sly Stallone talking about Dolph:

      If you remove the anomaly, which may be due to an accidental additional digit, that correlation coefficient may climb a bit.

        IMHO, they plotted an independent variable over random noise. The one gigathad changes nothing.

          I think there’s a clear correlation there, but the axes are reversed: testosterone can’t be the dependent variable of IQ score. Reversing the axes makes the gradient look incredibly steep, but that’s only because of the obviously incorrect anomaly. r=0.435 is very much not a strong correlation, but it’s not zero either, especially with a sample size this enormous.

            no, IQ can actually drive testosterone levels! it’s a strange feedback loop where social pleasure can cause testosterone production.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged, but keep it in good faith and never punch down.
