The long reply makes me feel a bit bad for jumping in but I agree with all of it. Nothing there goes against what I was saying. TRT won't r…

Some of those stories sound hard to believe. Proof would help. Medical travel is great if you don't mind the trips. Sigh.

Everything depends on how you look at it. I feel no pull toward outfits aside from maybe shedding what I'm wearing. For years now I haven't…

Guilty. That fits. It's like accepting defeat and deciding you're not the classic attractive type so you might as well try something differ…

That idea seems overstated. Social contact helps those who need it. For someone more introverted it could have the opposite effect.

Without death there wouldn't be life at all let alone good life quality. Women on average want more social connection and that's built in. …

It can go both directions. Some people handle being alone fine while others struggle. Not everyone needs the same level of social contact. …

That reference is about using lean muscle to gauge heart changes in obese kids. It's interesting data but it doesn't connect to the current…

True for most things. High doses just change which side effects show up. The corporate influence on what gets called science is the real is…

Whoa, so is this the largest thread here? Oh I haven't begun stabbing Reta yet.

Doesn't seem odd at all. Extra weight leaves you sluggish and ready to give up, so the big problem feels impossible to beat. Once it's gone…

I'd love a bit of that myself. Back when I was thirteen a bad doctor gave me cortisone for a fever and it stopped my growth. I ended up at …

Happy to help out.

It does come down to wanting status. That's part of being human and even tied to how we evolved. People chase that sense of being above oth…

Exactly. That's why paying attention to those kinds of comments doesn't help. It's just how people are wired. A lot of them aren't thinking…

This ranks as one of the more thoughtful threads I've come across. I see the point about how foolish some reactions can be. Still, judgment…

I'm not big on manners or handouts, yet I hardly ever turn down an offering. Even so, this time I have to say I just don't have what it tak…
