I can expand more. I don’t think I have to detail how many men became less rational because of testosterone. Besides the distractions of the preferred sex, there are more subtle “zen-like” qualities of the state. I’ll have likely more to say about the forbidden topic in regards to this state as well.
Before taking this step, had you had a mutually satisfying sexual experience with someone of your preferred gender whom you found physically attractive and for whom you cared emotionally?
ie: are you aware of the magnitude of the positive utility which you sacrificed?
Could you be a little more specific? I’m still unsure why you brought this topic up. Are you suggesting that at least some of us could be better rationalists if we did the same?
As far as the effects of testosterone, high levels can interfere with cognition, but AFAIK low levels also have a negative effect on cognition.
I’m intrigued… were there any changes you noticed that would be relevant to this community?

I am less wrong.

Given the combination of outlandish opening and coy followups, there’s no reason to take this seriously right now.
