Sure, but I'm also objecting to this concept of a "true nature" that apparently is to be condemned. How would we react to seeing something similar on a women's site about toxic masculinity? What's the "true nature" of men? What if it's asserted that the true nature of men is bad because it can lead to abuse and rape, and violence in general? It's the kind of thing that's easy to say from the relative safety of modernity. Most of us don't live under imminent threat of the neighboring tribe coming to rape and pillage. But historically our ancestors were the stronger ones in these conflicts, and that's why we're here, along with the genes that helped us to survive.


In any case, what [USER=38965]@DixieWrecked[/USER] seems to be saying is that the nature of women is bad because women may act in economic self-interest via their influence over men, and that, shockingly, they are not all sweet, docile and altruistic.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
