"The human animal has a tremendous desire to share," [Helen Fisher] says, that is really hard to fight against. "Thinking long-term and of consequences is relatively new in the development of the human brain. But the Wieners and the Woods and the Arnold Schwarzeneggers of the world are all high testosterone men, which makes the whole scenario so much worse." When patients are injected with testosterone, Fisher says, it heightens their thinking about "here and now," and lessens long-term vision. Testosterone also heightens sex drive and a tendency towards narcissism, which goes a long way to explain the thought process that could lead, say, a senator to post crotch-shots to the web. Short-term thinking plus narcissism equals a public relations disaster.
