ChAiNz.2da Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Too much testosterone can kill brain cells, researchers say, in a finding... Well, I guess women have a new argument to add to their arsenal as to why they think they're smarter... hehehe http://www.cnn.com/2006/HEALTH/09/27/testosterone.kills.reut/index.html
Ztalker Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Woah...I suddenly realise Arnold Schwarzenegger is the gouvernor of California That can't be good!

And I always thought it was meant as a joke.
Totenkopf Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Well, I guess women have a new argument to add to their arsenal as to why they think they're smarter... hehehe http://www.cnn.com/2006/HEALTH/09/27/testosterone.kills.reut/index.html Noticed article says we produce 20x > women. But, doesn't really say how much is too much, just that too much is bad. Oh well, one more thing for men and women to argue about.....
HerbieZ Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 To be honest i think thats bs. Scientists are trying to prove things that mean very little. Next they'll be saying tuna causes cancer. Theres always something. I would have thought scientists try to focus on space travel instead of how much my balls can put out.

Theres always something. I would have thought scientists try to focus on space travel instead of how much my balls can put out. Just to make your day, some tuna have higher levels of mercury, and mercury has been linked to cancer.... WA. State Dept of Health has some FAQs on mercury and fish consumption. Yes, scientists care about testosterone, since it's an integral part of men's health and fertility. Without testosterone (or enough testosterone), you guys can't make the 'little swimmers'.
Det. Bart Lasiter Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Bah, people have a couple billion brain cells anyway, what's one or two here and there?
Darth333 Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I guess that finally explains why so many men can't find the butter in the fridge
RaV™ Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Since we are on the topic of braincells..how many braincells exactly do you lose after smoking marijuana?? Serious question.
mimartin Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I guess that finally explains why so many men can't find the butter in the fridge Oh…the fringe is where the butter is kept. I thought it had to be churned or something. I may have lost a few too many brain cells to Prime’s explanation. Now I have a excuse other than beer when I do something really stupid thanks to Barbara Ehrlich.
Emperor Devon Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Heh, my testosterone levels are unimpressive. I'm glad I'm more intelligent now than if I'd decided to become a football player.
Jae Onasi Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 I guess that finally explains why so many men can't find the butter in the fridge That's not all they can't find.
Q Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 ^^^ Hehehehehehe... huh? Then they're not trying hard enough.
Char Ell Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 I guess that finally explains why so many men can't find the butter in the fridge That was just one of those experiences in your life that you just can't forget, eh Darth333? That's not all they can't find. :rofl: Of course you're not lumping Jimbo in with the rest of us testosterone-overdosed males, right Jae?
Mav Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Heh, my testosterone levels are unimpressive. I'm glad I'm more intelligent now than if I'd decided to become a football player. I don't think it would have made a difference, I personally don't feel dumber because I played football, if anything I feel smarter, you learn a lot of useful and practical things by participating in sports in general, but thats another discussion for another time. That's not all they can't find. [/Quote]Oh no... that image is back in my head again!!! curse you!! ------> On-topic: I'm not surprised, I'd be willing to bet that if you have too much of other things you'll kill some brain cells as well.
Jae Onasi Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 :rofl: Of course you're not lumping Jimbo in with the rest of us testosterone-overdosed males, right Jae? Of course not. I was there when both our kids were made, after all. @Emperor Devon--I don't think I've _ever_ heard a guy describe anything remotely gonadal as 'unimpressive'.
Sabretooth Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Ah, but then that makes Batman an impossibility.
CountVerilucus Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 whatever, I'm gonna go fix myself another protein shake...
RevanA4 Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 I guess that finally explains why so many men can't find the butter in the fridge I have no problem finding it, though everybody else in my house including my mom does of-course I also do 90% of the cooking in my house blah my testosterone levels must be below average then, because I'm more intelligent than most guys and a lot of the women I know note: I've NEVER been able to spell >.>
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 IRONY ALERT!!!!!!!!! I picked up a 30 foot wall too fast earlier today and proceded to drop it straight down on my brain. HIGH TESTOSTERONE DOES DAMAGE BRAIN CELLS!!! With my clumsiness, my manchemicals are the least of my worries.
Jae Onasi Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 IRONY ALERT!!!!!!!!! I picked up a 30 foot wall too fast earlier today and proceded to drop it straight down on my brain. HIGH TESTOSTERONE DOES DAMAGE BRAIN CELLS!!! With my clumsiness, my manchemicals are the least of my worries. So, let's see: Cost of Testosterone--8 million brain cells Cost of Dry Wall hitting head--24.3 million cells RJM posting here with his 3 remaining brain cells about the irony--Priceless
HerbieZ Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Actually i may be able to proove this. As i have been decorating my room recently, i have shifted stuff around and taken everything off the walls. Much to my horror an hour ago, i could hear a really loud ticking from my computer, so i legged it thinking it was gonna pop or something, only to find it was the clock i put on the floor next to it. God knows why i legged it, i always do when i hear a sound from an unusual place.
