What do you think the reason for this is?

Where do we start?
The breakdown of the nuclear family.
Too little male influence given to boys and young men - I speak as someone who guides a friend's son.
Too much maternal influence - boys wrapped in cotton wool, who have never been bloody or muddy.
Easy access to porn on the internet - it took effort to buy porn mags.
Misandry from feminists and the establishment as a whole.

The list goes on.
In my opinion, I think the testosterone leve decline in young men is due to chronic masturbation and lack of physical exercise. There could be more factors involved. But those are the two that I can think of.
I don't know my social circle all works out and can lift pretty heavy (I'm on the low end and I'm doing 8 reps at 185 lbs easy for deadlift).

Maybe porn but aside from that I don't see what else could cause it. Also how trustworthy are these studies? Check the testoserone of the guys I hang out with and compare it to the 2000 average.

Also, are they counting femboys on HRT in their studies? That would also screw the results

I think it's lack of exercise and drinking alcohol and eating food in plastic containers.

“Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible.”

I think it’s chemical and psychological. The powers that be are putting estrogenic chemicals in the food and water. Testosterone is also affected by psychological factors. Feelings of triumph make testosterone sky rocket which in turn boosts ambition to be even more successful. Failure makes testosterone plummet which reduces motivation and creates more failure. It’s nature’s way of making successful men want to pass on their success genes and unsuccessful men quit. I think men in general see nothing worth striving for these days. The only thing that gives the average guy a testosterone surging sense of victory is video games. How pathetic.

As sort of a blanket statement, thousands of years ago, we had to kill wooly mammoths with slingshots and build our own mud huts. Now we sit in cubicles and are afraid of spiders.

If I'm being honest, if I knew then what I know now I would not have gotten married. While I did get lucky (so far) with my marriage, I know the system is absolutely rigged against me and I'd be destroyed if she simply decided she wanted to.
Aye it has become a very real dilemma. Where once a man was concerned with providing a stable environment.. Roof over the head, food on the table, and able to wholly focus on productive things like a consistent, and well disciplined upbringing for our children..

today men walk a knife edge, risking health, wealth, and sanity, on the ever increasing probability, you partner up with a women programmed by the entitlement culture, a ticking time bomb, empowered by an establishment that fully supports.. even endorses.. their narcissism.

On paper mgtow is currently the most rational route for young men to take, however they do still need to maintain their health, and a level of basic fitness. Things will change eventually, and men have the benefit of no reproductive expiry date.. beyond allowing their testosterone to fall through the floor.

If you can mature, rather than age, you can remain patient for a return to sanity.. If not? Well, men seem to manage regret well. sanity, peace and quiet, health.. These are things we can happily live with, and require very little.

I married a narcissist, someone who can never say sorry, or accept responsibility for their wrongs, she we divorced, I was lucky to have so much time with my children, because it was convenient for her to allow it. But is spent the better part of 12yrs biting my tongue, and taking knocks like a pro, as needed, just to preserve my relationship with them.

They are both grown up, living their own lives, on their own terms, and I couldn't be happier. They are happy, which makes me happy, and the cherry in top.. I don't have to deal with my ex any more.. Bliss!

Its a risky path you walk, but if you can thread it, its worth the price, you may have found a safe lass, but you are right.. Luck has a lot to do with it.. Which is why I would never give stick to a person who chooses not to gamble..

I wish you well, and hope your luck holds o7

True, and the only people who tend to get their testosterone checked, are those struggling to have children, or have other medical reasons.. Like transition.

Trust is a good point you make, who benefits from pushing a low t score narrative, who does it effect negatively. There is a war on masculinity after all.
This is fake news. No such source. In fact many studies from different countries showed a decrease of about 35% since aroubd 1980, and about 20% since year 2000 for people of the SAME AGE.

You seem bwyond clueless truly. Dude, did you fail biology class? No matter how much you work out, testosterone receotors being blocked inside body due to microplastics in ALL food packaging of all types, cartoned milk included, oecticides,as well as several key ingredients in all foods, including "organic" Foods. The receptors get clogged by them and no longer are able to get testosterone to the body. to not know these basics is beyond embarrassing. Gym nutrient shakes and powders also have lots of soy lecithin filled with phytoestrogens. You sound like working out will save you. Unga bunga caveman mentality lol

Porn. Stay free boys ✊🦅
There is no better alternative and that does not lower testosterone long-term. Only temporary each time for a day. Research shows This. And there is ko better option for vast majority of men since women ,vast majority seek unrealiatic standards, hence top10% now only , they won't get them of course. A few will later in their 3ps lower standards. Most do not

#MGTOW here, testosterone is overrated anyway. What would I use it for? I'd rather have a beer than some pink.
This is an incel excuse ,using mgtow as cope. Real mgtow know that testosterone literally is needed for MENTAL HEALTH, without it your brain is in A disordered state,sick,and this is science,bub. Only black pilled incels would state what you did. Never a true mgtow
