She asks....

:Are you saying testosterone supplements don't affect body builders and athletes? Or that Viagra doesn't work?

I reply....

No, only that, though they may tempt you, they are not responsible for your behavior. You are. You may not be able to control the facial hair growth, but you can control your behavior in spite of your precious emotions. Loss of control over one's own behavior is called a psychotic break. (Note that there's no correlating psychological term for loss of control over facial hair growth - a preposterous comparison.) And unless you're admitting that you need to be occasionally shackled down or locked up by psychiatric ward professionals, and God bless your poor heart if you do, then you'd better start accepting the fact that YOU, not Mr. T., are responsible for your conduct. Yet, if you want to be a loser, be my guest. You have the attitude, and that's a good start.
