Maybe Gammas do have higher testosterone, but like @DREWIEY shows, there is failure in some systems utilizing testosterone. So that explains their aggression and rage but not muscles and physical confrontation/pain sensitivity.

Goldfish can recognize female scent on males, which may make those males more desirable to other females.

If the men are the colourful ones in that fish, being a grey fish is being weak. Being grey is giving up. You gave up, and then you lost your colours. Or you weren't any to begin with. And hating sports, and the nutrition which fuels the sports teams' beautiful colours, then he didn't even try to join the team.

If the women in that fish are looking for a strong, skilled man for a job, never talk with a grey fish. It's the sign of fucking impotence.

Every unprotected shot I put in my wife resulted in a pregnancy. One shot I thought we were out of the window.

Maybe this explains gamma rape. He thinks hes getting some. She rejects. He puts all the time and resources into trying to get some with nothing to show for it. He looses it. He doesn't think another opportunity with another women will come.

My wife is the only women Ive been with. Back when we were dating my thought process was always I better do everything I can to make sure she doesn't leave me because I knew another women might not come along for me. Hence the backward logic of letting her run the show. The illusion that if she gets to be in charge and theoretically can do everything she wants that will make her happy and never leave you. The little grey fish explains my entire life story.

I don't know much about a fish rape, but this article might have been written by a grey fish.

"...especially if it were to be determined that Gamma males are more fertile, on average, than other men."

Handmaid's Talel was bad enough.

That said, an even creepier gamma version of the premise should at least prove to be unpopular with the general populous.

Would imagine women in particular finding it exceptionally revolting.

"[...]especially if it were to be determined that Gamma males are more fertile, on average, than other men."

Speaking of convenient evo-psych storytelling, that raises to mind a possibility of toxins in our environment reducing male fertility, and Gamma being a natural response to that.

The chemicals in the water are turning our freaking boys Gamma!

There's a ton of gammas in fitness dabbling in steroids. They raise their testoserone past 1000 ng/dl and their behaviour patterns do not change, just becomes worse.

Aren't steroids known to cause erectile dysfunction and testicular shrinkage? Testosterone can't be the only factor at play here, especially considering that Gammas would likely have lower test than Alphas, not higher.

DREWIEY's avatar

No , only abuse does that. Erectile dysfunction is only certain steroids, shrinkage can happen but there's other drugs/supements to fix that .

Most of the guys from Pumping Iron are still alive/healthy or died from old age or non related steroid issues. Columbu died at 80 because he swam in the ocean in a storm for example. Mentzer was bitter and addicted to meth. Stuff like that. Most top bodybuilders are healthy, have kids, hair etc.

Ah, thank you for explaining. I confess that my knowledge of bodybuilding and steroids doesn't extend much past rumours and hearsay.

DREWIEY's avatar

You're welcome. Not advocating for steroid use btw. It's really retarded for 99% of ppl.

It's not what the media says but not what a fat bro believes. Most of the amateurs taking them are bloated and have mediocre results that only impress non lifters. They also take dosages 3 to 10 times of what the the top pros take.
