re: #8 silverdolphin

Not quite sure what your point is since many scientific and medical papers use the term “low testosterone”. Especially the paper I cited shows that is is likely that low testosterone level but high cortical males can be very high on social status and anything but a Beta male. Could you clarify?

My point is that while “low testosterone” is a legitimate scientific term, much like “beta males” used to be, both are misused by certain subcultures across the globe to belittle men who do not fit the uber-masculline “real man” stereotype. Not just by those dickheads whose brains have been rotted by anabolic steroids, but asshats like the “manly men” in the far-right media who obsess about and even spin conspiracy theories about average testosterone levels in modern society.
