This has got to be one of the most absurd policies I have ever heard about! I'm not talking about things that Trump and company have done that that's just mean. This is somewhere in the La La Land of hyper masculinity!
"Service members...30 and older." Hmm. Testing the women too for T? Or are we too weak and feeble-minded/hormoned for such an undertaking as mercilessly killing presumed enemies?
They're probably afraid to enlist women and give them a gun. They know women are smarter except for frumper women that all have the mar-a-lago bleached blonde, tight skin look.
Why not skip the middle-GI entirely and get a robotics firm to fast-track robot troops, like in the movie version of I-Robot...
In Catch-22, the novel, there's a character called Lieutenant Sheisskopf (inevitably promoted to General) who, wanting to have a perfect platoon to show off to his commanding officers, regrets that he can't wire his men together at the shoulder so they'll all turn exactly at the same time...
If only we could robotize all members of the armed services, then we'd never have to worry about illness, low lethality (based, perhaps, on a vestigial conscience), mistakes (like accidentally blowing up 150 little girls in some rag-head country)-- Or even the possibility of questioning orders--no matter how inhumane and immoral they might be...
Too much testosterone, indiscriminately administered, can cause your heart to explode, your prostate to swell up and your brain to tip off the cliff of sanity... Hegseth is already too masculine for normal life--now he wants everybody in the armed forces to be as crazy and homicidal as he is... This policy alone is reason enough to throw out of the whole corrupt, nutty bunch of them..
Thank you for another wonderful piece of writing. I usually read your words, but today I listened while making breakfast. I prefer reading so I can reread your best lines.
Ridiculous becomes more ridiculous each day. Testosterone levels and treatment for the most virile military men is right up at the top of ridiculous. How much money are they going to waste on this project? If I were a man thinking about enlisting, I would be infuriated by this. Makes me wonder how many more changes and requirements there are now. How about for senators next? Why stop there? Any male wanting to hold office has to submit to a full physical including checking all bodily fluids and levels, height, weight, BMI, size of brain, hands, fingers and feet. Ridiculous. Our tax dollars hard at work to making America great. Bunch of pea-brains that need to be put in prison for the rest of their days.
What a insulting policy. Let's put Hegseth top of the list to be tested.

Hopefully an abnormally high testosterone level will mean that soldier will not be given a gun.
Well thought through and written

Magnificently discussed. Thank you.
Ghastly. Akin to measuring facial features to seeing if people are Jewish
