He’s probably mixing up sperm with testosterone level. Somehow the conversation of testosterone levels came up with a group of kids we work with. One of the young adults who is heavily into weight lifting knew his testosterone levels. The 65 year old man in our group had far higher levels. The reason? He nearly died from cancer and is now on hormone therapy. Apparently the levels are set quite high.
Perhaps that correlation with aggression is real, but medically-speaking giving older men T supplements is actually important. Low testosterone can cause and exasperate several conditions, including making bones less sturdy. As for the young gym bros and Men With Microphones... they're more of the issue.
