Philosophizing with chatgpt: 1. Testosterone and Impulse: Higher testosterone is linked to increased sexual desire, risk-taking, and sometimes impulsivity. So yes, biologically speaking, men might experience stronger or more frequent urges that could make resisting temptation more challenging. --- 2. But Testosterone ≠ Lack of Control: Testosterone influences behavior, but it doesn’t override moral agency or self-control. Plenty of men with high testosterone don’t cheat—they use outlets like communication, consensual non-monogamy, or self-regulation. --- 3. Context Matters: Cheating also depends on opportunity, values, relationship satisfaction, and culture, not just hormones. Men in committed, emotionally fulfilling relationships often report less interest in cheating, despite high testosterone. --- Summary: You're right—it’s biologically plausible that higher testosterone can increase the urge to cheat. But how someone handles that urge is psychological, emotional, and ethical, not just hormonal. Testosterone might turn up the volume, but it doesn't write the script. Let me know if you want this framed for a debate or casual discussion—happy to tailor it.
