Ray Peat could be suppressing his calcitonin levels with T4 and T3 synthetic hormones.Why does ray peat have a receeding hair line?why is josh rubin receeding?
Androgyny is the pinnacle of good looks, I don’t think they changed genders
I didn't say that was my personal preference, mine is similar to yours. I was just offering something I had read about beforeYou think androgynous women who have no hips or boyish hips and jaw lines like men are the pinnacle of good looks? Not me. I like women curvy and with feminine jaw lines. I was walking behind a woman at the grocery store the other day who had splendid curvy hips. Seems to be getting so much rarer these days that it was a turn-on. Didn't even see her face. I wonder if men who like looks of boyish looking women are really sort of a bit gay in a semi-pedo direction.

I’ve met women with curvy hips but deep voices, women with the more boyish as you describe figure with beautiful soft feminine voices.
I wondered about that too in regards to homosexual/pedo but after briefly reading about hermaphroditis, I am not sure.
I think I’d have to agree with you on all points. Can be any number of things but perhaps birth control is a big reasonAs I said in other post, "The more sexual dimorphism occurring between men and women, the better." It seems that classic female attributes are disappearing, one by one. Used to be most women in recent past had it all - curvy hips, female jaw lines, higher-pitched and unambiguously feminine voices, and more. Not now. Note this cite: "The more masculine the man, the greater his desire for feminine women. The less masculine the man, the greater his tolerance (if not desire) for masculine women."

Hair is a pretty big factor to women in terms of finding men attractive. This "learned helplessness" about hairloss continues to keep us in the dark about something that affects the quality of life for the individuals who suffer from it.
Fascinating observation: "Have a look at many 'female' actresses and even pop artists. Facial and bodily bone structures highly suggestive of transgenderism." Please share more thoughts you have on this.
The youtube community is pretty active about this but their channels keep getting deleted. One of the most fascinating ones is Arnold Schwarzenegger.

It goes way back, up to Charlie Chaplin and Marilyn Monroe and it is also very frequent in the Porn Industry.

[The effects of levothyroxine replacement therapy on bone and mineral metabolism in patients with hypothyroidism].[/paste:font]
R Chai, Z Ye, Z Zhan, W Liu, M Yu and Y Liu, Zhonghua nei ke za zhi, Jan 1999
To investigate the effects of short-term thyroid hormone replacement therapy on bone and mineral metabolism in patients with hypothyroidism.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) to measure serum calcitonin (CT), parathyroid hormone (PTH-M), bone GLA protein (BGP), free T(3) (FT(3)), free T(4) (FT(4)) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in 29 patients with hypothyroidism before and after treatment with levothyroxine for (11.5 +/- 2.5) months. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure bone mineral density (BMD) of their spine (L(2 - 4)) and femur neck, trochanter and Ward's triangle. The results were compared with those in 37 healthy controls.In hypothyroidism patients before treatment, serum BGP level was significantly lower (P < 0.05) than but urinary DPD was similar with those of control. BMD was significantly lower in postmenopausal patients (P < 0.01 - 0.001) than that in control group, but there was no change in premenopausal patients. After replacement therapy serum BGP and urinary DPD elevated significantly (P < 0.05), whereas BMD decreased slightly both in the premenopausal and postmenopausal patients when compared with that before treatment, with no statistical significance (P > 0.05). BMD decreased by 0.7% and 1.7% - 5.1% in premenopausal and postmenopausal patients respectively, but there was no significant difference between these two groups (P > 0.05). FT(3) was positively correlated with BGP. FT(4) and FT(3) were positively correlated with DPD. BMD of femur neck and trochanter sites was negatively correlated with FT(4).Short-term physiological dose levothyroxine replacement therapy causes increase of bone turnover and leads to bone mass loss to various extent on hypothyroidism patients.

“Calcitonin is one of those critical hormones. Calcitonin is a hormone that the C-cells in the thyroid glandproduce and release. It opposes the action of the parathyroid hormone, helping to regulate the blood’s calcium and phosphate levels”

The main concern is the use of suppressive
doses of T4, for treatment of thyroid cancer or thyroid nodules,
as this has been reported to increase the rate of bone
turnover and, hence, result in osteopenia. The increased rate
of bone turnover was reflected by an elevation of the serum
osteocalcin level, a sensitive marker for increased osteoblast
activity and bone formation (2)."
You could also consider the loss of the progenitor cells in the hair follicles considering Ray Peat's age. Frankly you haven't given me enough info to go on.
This concept of "ohh lala baldness magically curses men with no reason as to whom it strikes" epitomizes the learned helplessness state in my view. Maybe we could fix hairloss instead of changing people's genders and creating new tranquilizers for people with minor emotional issues?
We've played God with so many other things like stem cells and cloning, but heaven forbid we can NEVER fix hairloss.
Rob at perfect hair health does state there was like 3 genes they could test for showing your susceptibility to baldness, but he uses detumescence massage to regrow hairWe cant fix hair loss because its mostly genetics, the same as eye, hair,skin color. Of cours drugs and a hair transplant will work.
Where do you live, US? I gotta say in Europe at least women generally seem to be getting hotter and more feminine with each passing year.As I said in other post, "The more sexual dimorphism occurring between men and women, the better."

Used to be most women in recent past had it all - curvy hips, female jaw lines, higher-pitched and unambiguously feminine voices, and more. Not now.

I have hypothyroidism and I think balding is worseWhere do you live, US? I gotta say in Europe at least women generally seem to be getting hotter and more feminine with each passing year.
About baldness, many of the men who women rank among the sexiest in the world are bald/balding. There are way worse things for a man than to lose his hair (like hypogonadism or hypothyroidism), and baldness often occurs in men with excellent thyroid and androgen levels.

You’re really annoying. Sorry but you’re wrong about hairloss, basically we’re talkung about a condition similar to how people suffer from Type 2 diabetes not eye color

Hair loss is a natural part of the aging process.... at age 20 around 10-15% have hair loss. age 30, 30% and by age 90 nearly 90%+ have hair loss.
