This interview is worthless. How exactly does a study "suggest" anything? Obviously a data sheet does not get up and walk over to it's creator and start making recommendations, but on the other hand the conclusions drawn from this study seem equally as audacious as child's perception of said walking paper. She balanced every affirmative with a "maybe," every agreement with a qualification. I wish she would have just cut to the chase and told me how to find the perfect woman, give her the greatest climax of her life, and how to know what she's been up to by the color of her toe-nail paint, and if she did or didn't wear open-toed shoes. God, how unscientific of her.

Yeah, the interview at the end was pretty lame, but the first couple of minutes with the actual researcher got all the material across that really needed to be said.

"Suggests" just means that no clinician wants to speak in absolutes.

I would have to agree with Liz the word can have different intents. For example "theory" can have multiple meanings depending on the context. It could be a loosley based individual assertion or a relatively widely accepted supposition.

Unfortunately I’m unable to view the complete video as my Firefox browser keeps dumping after about 30 sec into it but my concern is about the cause/effect relationship. Is the elevated testosterone the cause or the efffect in regards to the more “masculine” physiology?
