Well there is some truth to this.
People with the the Extra Chromosome(xyy) have HIGH Testosterone and GH levels which is interesting to note.
They are dumb as bricks too usually.
Am i saying that testosterone will make you dumber? No. But it IS an interesting aspect in these specimens with the xyy.

XYY syndrome males inherit an extra Y chromosome--their genotype is XYY. As adults, these "super-males" are usually tall (above 6 feet) and generally appear and act normal. However, they produce high levels of testosterone. During adolescence, they often are slender, have severe facial acne, and are poorly coordinated. They are usually fertile and lead ordinary lives as adults. Many, if not most, are unaware that they have a chromosomal abnormality. The frequency of XYY syndrome is not certain due to statistical differences between different studies. It may be as common as 1 in 900 male births to as rare as 1 in 1500 or even 1 in 2,000.
Early studies of XYY syndrome done in European prisons initially led to the erroneous conclusion that these men were genetically predisposed to antisocial, aggressive behavior, below average intelligence, and homosexuality. Contributing to the early view that XYY syndrome men have serious personality disorders was the case of Richard Speck. In 1966, he coldly murdered 8 nurses in a Chicago dormitory. At his trial, his lawyer claimed that he was innocent due to uncontrollable urges caused by his XYY genotype. This novel appeal was akin to claiming insanity or severely diminished mental competence. The jury was not convinced and found him guilty of murder. He was sentenced to life in prison where he eventually died. In fact, Richard Speck did not have an XYY genotype. However, some researchers suggest that the high testosterone levels of XYY men can make them somewhat more prone to violence and that this may cause higher rates of wife beating.

""Next time a muscle-bound guy in a sports car cuts you off on the highway, don't get mad -- just take a deep breath and realize that it might not be his fault," Ehrlich said in a statement."
Great image of bodybuilders to project to the public.

I cant wait for Matt C to voice his opinion on this topic. Dude bash steroid users but he is the smallest natural weightlifter I have ever seen.

However much does Chic uses. :D

I think high test maybe makes people more agressive and more prone to partaking in dangerous activities. I haven't read anything that would suggest that there is a negative effect on the CNS with more test with the exception of making people more agressive. So maybe indirectly there may be some truth to this?

He then went on to say
"next time one of those big black porch monkeys steals your car or the dirty jews try to take your money -- just take a deep breath and realize......"
