SUMMARY:Beyond Masculinity: Testosterone, Sexuality, & Gender/Sex
DESCRIPTION:

 We 
 all know the story: testosterone is intimately 
 tied to masculinity and sexuality. But 
 what happens when data get in the way of a good 
 story? In this talk, I will detail ongoing 
 empirical and theoretical work from my lab on 
 testosterone and sexuality that provides a 
 new way of conceptualizing the evolved social 
 functions of testosterone. Using results that 
 range from experiments to qualitative focus 
 groups, I will describe how testosterone can 
 be uncoupled from behavioral masculinity per 
 se in humans, and linked to other social constructs. 
 I will highlight how social neuroendocrinology 
 provides a way to ask hormonal questions 
 that have evolution and social construction 
 in their answers, and what this means for 
 the ways that gender/sex can and can't be 
 separated.\n\n
