Testosterone boost has no effect on men's risk-taking or generosity In the largest study of its kind, scientists found testosterone does not influence men's economic behavior. A dose of the hormone failed to change how men approached choices involving risk, fairness, and competition.

Although, I think it's true that testosterone affects to some degree men's behavior, I do think we over attribute it's overall effect on men and decisions or behavior. #hsp #hspmen #sensitive #empath #highlysensitive #testosterone #malebehavior https://loom.ly/2lreFNc

What we’ve learned about the psychology of narcissism over the past 30 years Narcissism has two surprisingly different faces: one is bold and grandiose, the other is vulnerable and hypersensitive. Both stem from a common core of self-importance, but their emotional experiences are worlds apart, challenging our most common stereotypes about the trait.
