Because men tend to have more of testosterone circulating in the system. Circumscribed mating season usually testosterone is dormant but this short little time they become active for that little bit of the season. Correlative = indirectly related . tendency for things to happen! Normal levels of testosterone appear to be a prereqquite for normative levels of aggressive behavior . There seems to be a direct link between t and aggression with difference cuz it causes segregation resulting in hierarchy - the i am better than yourself .

Scientists study what they want to see as results from their experiments. Know the term whether you have a lil bit or a lot there is no direct correlation you need some testosterone for normal behaviour.
