Testosterone Tumbling in American Males

An anonymous reader writes "Yahoo is running a story about a study that concludes that testosterone levels are falling across all age groups among American men. It says 'The testosterone-fueled American male may be losing his punch'" I leave it to you all to draw your conclusions about this, but I still wonder what my hours of laptop-fu does to me.

    This phenomenon is a result of the political left-shift in American coastal states during the time that the under-loaded men were in their formative years.

    As many have observed, leftisch women have higher testosterone levels than their men. This transference could well be psychosomatic.

    It's interesting that these researchers are taking data collected in Boston and generalizing it to the American male population. We're going to guess that they live in Boston. It's not a big leap to suggest that the same study done in Montana could have very different results.
