I was at the other forum I go too and it stated a question on why is sex so tempting? Well this one person said.. > I blame the hormones And another said > Every teen has pretty much the same amount of hormones. Not everyone is a massive whore. My question is the hormones.. Some one told me one time guys with higher testosterone levels are more horny (or something like that) ..so do people have different levels of hormones or are they all the same.? Oh and if u want to answer the why is sex so tempting crap then I guess if u want to u can …

Hormones levels

If you do blood tests, you'll find that everyone has different levels of everything, and a lot of people fall outside of the "normal" range on one or more things.Then there's the issue of sensitivity to hormones, with respect to how they affect behavior. There are also other physical and psychological reasons that people have different sex drives.Teen males have much higher levels of testosterone than old guys do. The amount in the blood slowly but continually decreases over the years. Teen males tend to be hornier than older guys.

Testosterone levels in different people do vary significantly, and testosterone is associated with horniness. Giving extra testosterone, considerably over normal amounts, has been tried as a male contraceptive, because, oddly, it reduces sperm numbers and viability; it makes many men hornier, but only up to a point - they still remain in control.Women have testosterone too, though usually less of it, and it affects their horniness, and the amounts in women vary also. When women drink alcohol, their testosterone levels increase and they become hornier. This effect doesn't seem to happen in men.Sex is tempting because biologically it is essential to keep the species going. If we didn't want to do it there wouldn't be more generations. Natural selection is going to tend to favour the horny.

Quote:When women drink alcohol, their testosterone levels increase and they become hornierThat is interesting because, a some health official said when I was in school, when a woman is tipsy or even a little drunk, it's harder for her to get lubricated and have an orgasm. I've experienced the orgasm part. When I've been drinking, it's harder to have an orgasm.

When women drink alcohol, their testosterone levels increase and they become hornierI'm not sure that the effect of the (presumably small) increase in testosterone caused by alcohol consumption trumps the inhibition-reducing effect on libido that alcohol also has.

The whole testosterone thing is pretty interesting. A few months ago I had my testosterone level checked because I simply lost any sexual urge. My doc and I were both pretty shocked that my level was 485, which is pretty high lol. If I remember what the doc said that an average testosterone level is around 285 (I might be wrong it's been a few months since I had the conversation with my doc).And as for the alcohol thing, Adam can testify to the fact if you give me a couple drinks I am ready to go! LoL. But there is a limit that if I have too much to drink I am the total opposite hehe.
