    Love this thread. You're all hitting some good points. Thought I was the only one noticing this.

    Nah its ok if you dont like sports. Just some of the behavior i mentioned before.

    -cant fight your own battles, need 10 guys with you to "jump someone".

    -quit your job after 2 months because you havent moved out and mommy pays the bills anyway (no initiative). Call off because you have a sore throat or stomach ache.

    -standing there as a gf/wife/sister/cousin/friend gets punched by a dude saying "hey thats not my fight".

    -cant even do basic things like wash or iron your own clothes and take a shower every day, helpless without a phone. No responsibility, spending half your check on fast food and movies but you know you got bills you have to pay.

    -cant cut grass, shovel snow, or change a tire without whining or asking for help.

    All seem pretty unnacceptable to me. This kind of nonsense was the exception, not the norm. I dont think its a coincidence that traits like these went up as divorce rates and single parenthood skyrocketed. Not to mention estrogen/hormone filled foods, lazy technology based lifestyle, etc.

    The IRONY is that some guys will have a checkmark under each of these categories, have no car, addicted to drugs or alcohol, yet they tend to get a lot of ass and have a lot of kids! Women pick these dudes, hence why i said "the cycle continues". No one calls out the men for being sissies/and or dusfunctional thugs or bums and no one calls our the women for their stupid dating choices.

    True. There's a belt for everyone now. In the old days you had to earn them.

    Full hair upper body? Utterly disgusting to bitches. No they didn't have more testosterone back then.

    Most of the elite fighters today are not American.

    Current elites in the game right now.

    -Gonzalez
    -Estrada
    -Inoue
    -Rigo
    -Loma
    -Garcia (American)
    -Crawford (American)
    -GGG
    -Ward (American)
    -Kovalev

    Right now there are only 3 elite Americans in the world. Which is less than there usually are.

    It doesn't have to be an opinion. Name the great fighters of today. Great! Pac is the only great fighter that I can think of. Maybe Roman Gonzalez. Possibly Ward. That's about it.

    I can't be bothered to look for the studies but men in 1920s had about 15% more T than men of 1980s. Men of 1980s had about 15% more T then we do today.
