"Testosterone is a hormone that males produce in far greater quantity than females. It begins production while the individual is still in the womb, and effects brain development."

I don't think there can be any doubt that the greater competitive drive of males is the result of sex hormones. But the idea that intellectual achievement is associated with very high levels of testosterone is almost certainly wrong.

Criminal and high-level intellectual activity have the same underlying motor according to Kanazawa: testosterone.
Or when men channel their energies into things other than their own narrow selfish interests, their behavior changes.
