Most guys who drink regularly and significantly are moggers though in some way.

They may have less T but they have higher something else, i.e., estrogen or serotonin maybe.

They often have bigger hands or deeper voices or are more willing to fight. They are usually more aggressive or more chill, or both on and off, and appear more masculine. IDK if it is something with cortisol and ethanol effects but routine heavy drinkers are often loud, NT and have more fight in them than non-drinkers usually.

Maybe their T is lower but social drinkers are often NT and non-incel at the expense of stellar health maybe.

You’re definitely right in some sense. In the UK the pub is one of those environments that allows for the boldest social theatrics. There is also the cultural association between drink and larger men. Drinking capacity is generally a proxy for physical size and therefore strength; that’s probably a key reason as to why it has such prominence in rugby culture.

However, I think it is always a mistake to adopt unhealthy practices in order to approximate the culture of an individual that is successful with women. In terms of what makes a large, neurotypical man attractive, drinking could only ever be a superficial part - it’s not as if they would be less attractive were they to be disciplined and teetotal.
Same goes for smoking.

lower testosterone and hormone studies:

Some quotes from the testosterone studies:
"
  1. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) is a coenzyme that has great power over the production of testosterone within the testes. When too much alcohol is consumed, this will lower the amount of NAD in the body and therefore reduce the production of testosterone.
  2. Oxidative damage of leydig cells in the testicles can be caused by overconsumption of alcohol. They can destroy testosterone in the scrotum and the testosterone which is already in circulation throughout the body.
  3. The endorphins called Beta-Opioid Endorphins have an unhelpful effect on testosterone production. When too much alcohol intake stimulates the brain to release the endorphins, they damage testosterone.
  4. When a man assumes too much alcohol, this can lower testosterone levels and increase estrogen levels. Alcohol has the power to increase the aromatase enzyme which has the main responsibility of converting testosterone into estrogen. This can lead to many problems, including gynecomastia (enlargement of the breasts in men) and other issues.
"
" The Ethanol in alcoholic drinks causes oxidative damage to the Leydig Cells that produce testosterone in your testicles.


  • Damaged Leydig Cells will not function at their highest levels.

    Antioxidants may help protect against this oxidative damage, but they will never be able to inhibit it completely.
  • Frequent alcohol consumption increases the activity of the Aromatase enzyme, causing an increase in the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. This decreases testosterone dramatically in two ways.

    First, the conversion itself of testosterone to estrogen lessens the amount of testosterone present.

    Second, the increased presence of estrogen signals the testosterone producing mechanism within the body to halt production.

    In other words, abundant estrogen is a marker for the body, indicating that it has enough testosterone and doesn’t need to produce more.
  • Alcohol, as part of its relaxing and depressive effect, causes the brain to release beta-opioid endorphins.

    This in turn lowers the production and release of testosterone.
  • The metabolism of Ethanol decreases the amount of NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) within both the liver and the testes.

    Since NAD+ is necessary for healthy testosterone production, said production is reduced.
"
"
We touched on this earlier when we discussed the several ways alcohol can lead to reduced testosterone levels.

Beer in particular, because of the particularly potent phytoestrogens in hops, does increase the presence of estrogen in the body.

The serious effect is demonstrated in a study of female ratswho could not produce estrogen on their own because their ovaries had been removed.

Due to consumption of alcohol, their bodies exhibited estrogen-like effects, even when that consumption was moderate.


Add the aromatase effect that increases the conversion of testosterone to estrogen,and yes indeed, alcohol has a profound effect on estrogen levels.

this is also the reason young alcoholics grow taller.

less testosterone = less aromatization and fusing.

Alcohol inhibits protein synthesis too
Also the most estrogenic alcohol is actually beer funnily enough due to the fact it contains hops

If you think about it, just don't overdo it. Drinking once every 2 months, or every month, shouldn't be a problem. Just evaluate if it's worth it.

I'm going to drink with a girl soon, which is something I never do. So, yeah. I think it'll be worth it.

All the fuckers who complain about "muh soy" (which has phytoestrogens in low quantities, which don't really affect your T/E) never talk about alcohol like beer having 50 times the amount of phytoestrogen, which is enough to cause actual hormonal effects.

Beer contains hops (Humulus lupulus), which contain 8-prenylnaringenin (8-PN), a potent phytoestrogen that can exert estrogen-like effects
