Testosterone... Why do we have it? I'd like to know. Is it there as a tool to use for attracting females? Did it come about because the youth of the world want to impose change? Do you think it helps the world.... Or destroys it?

I really don't honestly know.

Absolutely any comment you care to drop on my not knowing this is welcome.

It's a product of your endocrine system. That's all. If you're trying to apply some moral purpose to it, I think that's a pointless exercise.

It's there to cause those of us genetically predisposed to male pattern baldness, to lose hair. If you have the trait and no testosterone, you keep your hair. (I gather it is the dihydro form in particular that is involved in hair loss.)

All of the hormones are related to each other, one being low or high causes the system to shift all of them in various directions. Consequently, you probably need to examine all the hormones at the same time, and not just one in particular.

Testosterone makes your muscles grow, bulks your skeletal structure, and makes you physically and metally intense, and sexually active. women have it too. the amount of testosterone in the womb has a very marked effect on the development of the child, and the behaviour of the woman.

Their ovaries and adrenal glands share the responsibility for testosterone production. Studies show that testosterone helps women maintain muscle and bone strength, and contributes to sex drive or libido.

Women manufacture about one-seventh the amount of testosterone each day that men do.

When I was little my mum used to talk of a man called John Lennon. She'd talk about him alot. I remember. I looked him up. My father died and my older brother would attack me, I think he did this because he couldn't except the notion of his father being dead.....and I would try to make peace with him. My father died and so did his ideas in our home... Me and my brother fought, forgetting that we were two men in the same boat.

Imagine all the people.
Living life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer.
But I'm not the only one.
One day the world could be one.

I reckon that that thought could only come from a well intentioned person.
