Many people may easily caption this photo, "There's too much testosterone in this room." We've all heard claims like this, utilizing men's biology to excuse their behavior, with the resultant ramifications of absolving their actions. When we talk about testosterone as if it has mystical abilities, it serves to perpetuate the impression that men are slaves to their bodies. This belief that hormones and heredity can explain why boys will be boys absolves men of all responsibility for any immoral act considered a violation of divine law.
