#585 - Andrew Huberman

So here's what's wild. Yeah. The more older brothers a guy has, the more testosterone he's exposed to in utero and the higher probability it is that he'll be gay. Now, that's not always the case. It doesn't mean you have five older brothers, you'll be gay, but much higher probability of being gay if you have more older brothers.

With each older brother, the probability of a male baby growing up into a gay man increases significantly. Okay, super interesting. Now, all of this is interesting because it shows that there's what we call organizational effects of hormones in utero. None of this can be because of behavior. In fact, these differences are present at birth. Okay. Okay.

And then of course the question I asked when I was on the study is if I would chop off my index finger, does my testosterone go up? The answer is no. So, you know, so when we think about like partner selection, like, you know, heterosexual, homosexual, you know, I think years ago it was thought that this was, you know, a there were still people that thought this was a behavioral choice.

Listen, newsflash, this is clearly a biological phenomenon. None of this, clearly. And I understand that, but there's, of course, also flexibility. You could imagine that some people, because of experience, decide that they're going to bat for the other team. Oh, for sure.
