Mates it's essential that you take zinc, avoid sugar and all processed foods, and do compound movements with weights at the gym regularly

Too much soy, too little physical activity, too much sugar, too many 350 pound women with purple hair who could not arouse a blind man

Cereal has a lot to do with it. Go down that rabbit hole and you will find some truth.

The cause is not clear,
This podcast - Almost 30 - on hormonal birth control made the claim that 50+ years of the pill has greatly contributed. The theory is that woman on the pill essentially have altered sex drives and they select for more beta males (with lower testosterone). And so that is who has been procreating and causing gene-pool-wide drops in T.

If you have daughters/young women in your life just casually going on hormonal bc, you should listen to this and rethink your position. I am convinced that it's basically just outright bad for them.

Back in your day- they didn’t purposely load tap water up with fluoride when you were a little kid and developing. They sure as hell didn’t teach LGBQT shot in school when you were a kid

Today, kids drink tap water loaded with fluoride while they are developing- factor in that and the fact that they teach LGBQT shite in schools.. it all makes sense.

Sleep is also a major factor. Chronic sleep problems can easily drop T by 15% or more.

People ingesting microplastics is a big part of it. Micro plastics whenever we drink water from plastic bottles is one route of exposure.

Microplastics act like estrogen in the body. This is well documented.

I think it's just a combination of things. There is some truth to the environmental/chemical issues. I just don't think our bodies are meant to be processing the amount of chemicals/metals/plastics/soy that goes into our bodies.

I think the bigger issues is modernity and feminism. Modernity had created too much comfort and leisure, amd feminism has killed masculine drive to build, protect, and provide. I would be willing to bet if you tested men in male dominated fields like construction, first responders, plant workers, etc. There T levels are going to be higher than men who work and compete with women all day. Also men in traditional marriage arrangements with traditional husband and wife roles, where the wife is in a supportive role, not a combative role... the man's T levels are pretty high. Men who don't look at porn or scroll the internet likely have lower T levels than men who do not.

The Universe 25 experiment was an interesting study. Worth looking into. They provided everything for the mice and gave them maximum comforts. The mice eventually they lost the drive to reproduce, and the entire colony exterminated itself.

not working out and getting fat
drinking alcohol
porn
eating crap

those are the culprits

Men have been drinking alcohol since the beginning of time. Logically it has to be something new, so I’m going with:

1.) Sedentary lifestyles
2.) Chemicals in the food & water
3.) Obesity (probably related to 1&2)
4.) The attempts of society to educate male aggression away
5.) Readily available porn reduces the males desire to impress females.

No doubt but I think it's hilarious it's the 55+ crowd men with their huge overextended bellies and atrophied limbs pointing it out... No self-awareness.

Dude I drink almost a gallon of tap water a day, and have been for over a half century; I’m almost 62; and my testosterone levels are still above 700.It isn’t tap water.


Well water or city water? Not every water district adds fluoride either.

Actually, more men engage in artificial exercise now than ever before in modern history.

I checked, and you are mostly right. They started in 1974 when I was 12.
