Document Summary

Davidson, camargo and smith (1979)performed double-blind study of activational effects of testosterone on men with insufficient production of androgens. Salmon and giest (1943) found that testosterone had effect on sexual desire and sensitivity of clitoris to touch. Persky and colleges (1978) studied sexual activity of 11 married couples from ages 21- 31. Participants kept records daily of their sexual feelings and behaviour, as their testosterone blood levels were measured twice a week. Women found intercourse to be more gratifying during these times couples more likely to engage in intercourse when womans testosterone level was at peak. It"s characterized by dislike in masculine behaviours in boys and dislike in feminie behaviours in girls. Results of the study show that this may be due to biological factors. However there is no difference in testosterone levels in blood btw homo and hetero men.
