Styropyro? Is that you?
Glad to see you and others beat me to it :)
hope he’s doing ok, he truly is unlike any other internet personality
He was my first thought too 😆
LOL
Hypothesis A:
- his name is J. Random Error
Hypothesis B:
- he’s real, has a brain anomaly, and is taking androgen antagonists (e.g. 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors) for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s not testosterone which has most biological effect, but dihydrotestosterone. T is just the guidance signal from the brain. DHT does the heavy lifting in tissue. If you don’t want to operate on the brain, you can block the result and leave the guidance signal going wrong.
Dihydrotestosterone Georg
Smart Hulk.
There’s probably severe health complications with that level of testosterone though.

Yessir, that’s the saucer what took muh cousin Darryl.
Could be someone with mild testosterone insensitivity, people like that often have elevated testosterone levels without the effects of elevated testosterone levels.
I know that guy, he’s sound.

So, because women have a much lower content of Testosterone, we can conclude that there are much more stupid than men or what does this silly correlation wants to tell us???
It’s about men but your takeaway would be that women are smarter because as IQ goes up, Testosterone goes down
this graph very clearly states it’s only related to men and has nothing to do with women at all. the only thing it shows is that the majority of men have average intelligence and average testosterone levels. R2=0.19 value means only 19% of the variation in testosterone levels can be explained by IQ, leaving 81% unexplained. This is a very weak relationship, bordering on statistical noise.
I wonder why they chose IQ as the independent variable? Surely it would be the other way around.
The thing about very superficial analysis like this is you can just go fishing for correlations and come back with something meaningless but publishable.
That exploitation of the scientific system is not what’s happening here. This is naive maybe, but not malicious, and it seems valid and without unwanted motives.
Absolutely right. Sorry.
His takeaway is that women are as smart as men (as in the IQ is the same) but because men have higher testosterone holding them back men are actually smarter than women. What I think he’s actually trying to say is that he’s a high testosterone misogynist.
If that is someones takeaway they are wrong. This chart essentially shows that these things are not actually correlated.
Look. I don’t make the rules of misogyny. You want things to make sense, you need to look elsewhere.
Your conclusion is based on deduction which in many occasions - like this one - leads to false conclusions. Try again.
Wait? So the other person isn’t being misogynistic? I’m lost.
All in your head, it is. The answer to your question, by you, lies.

This poster is High T. Ask me how I can tell.
Understand the meaning of question marks, you do not? Much to learn, little Padawan, you still have.
The only thing this graph shows is that average people are average. This graph essentially shows no -> very weak correlation between testosterone levels and IQ. in fact I would say this graph argues that correlating testosterone levels with IQ is essentially flawed. However because of the way the data is represented it makes it look as though there might be a correlation.
AFAIR the R2 is (almost) equal to rho in the Pearson correlation. I just see two variables, a linear fit from - possibly - an OLS. The small R2 is likely due to the outlier (though a single outlier by this mass of points raises my eyebrows as the MSE (or take the RSME) won’t be affected as such by a single point when there are 15’000 points centered closely around an estimate, but CCV would tell) and R2 says nothing about the p-value, which is determined by the amount of information in a system/about variables, and hence likely way below 0.05.
This relationship aka in this case correlation says pretty much nothing about real world, because IQ is (possibly) not only determined by IQ, but way many other factors. The picture is utterly simplified. It is similar to the relationship between the number of babies and the number of storks.

Styropyro?
Is that the YouTuber that couldn’t grow a beard even though he was in his thirties so he had this hormone levels checked and his testosterone was through the roof?
That’s because he needs to look at free testosterone, not total testosterone. Bound testosterone cannot be readily used by the body and is not an accurate reflection of one’s sexual health.
So yeah, his T serum can be above 1,000 ng/dL and he could be a babyface.
Most notorious reason for low free testosterone is lack of sleep, which can also be indicated by high reverse t3.
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?
It’s in the video, somebody linked it. He has testosterone over 1,500 and super high SHBG. He’s 31 and has never really grown a beard so it’s probably always been high. If it’s cancer then it’s a very slow one. Probably just a genetic variation that produces high SHBG and the body produces more testosterone to compensate. Hard to predict what kind of problems it might give him down the road since it’s probably rare.
Jesus Christ he’s in his 30s?
Well, I can’t answer that, now can I? There was a YouTube like I described but I don’t remember his name.
Someone else linked the video below.
Jep. Pretty sure that’s the one. Don’t think he ever got into what his specific ailment was though. And he hasn’t been all that active lately as far as I remember.
I think in one of the lastest videos he had said he was running around various doctors and would have to keep searching, maybe we’ll get an update by the end of the year😅
PS. So cool that Styropyro was my thought too, lol
When I was at OpenSauce last summer, someone asked him about it. I kinda forgot the answer but iirc he said he found a doctor that was helpful and it wasn’t causing him any medical issues
He just put out a “I bought a ton of car battery” video the other week.
Oh cool. I haven’t seen that.
Lmao I’m happy this has so many likes, I was thinking the same thing. Hope he’s doing well
Yes he is, he has aquired 300 additional car batteries btw
Bro, after that first car battery video, I’m wondering how he’s going to deal with the magnetism problem.
