That statement makes me think men are controlled by their hormones. Some of them. The ones who think that way.
I am again being facetious, or rather blithely expressing an attitude that was and still is prevalent: that women cannot be allowed to use their wiles to control menfolk without having to face the consequence of an unwanted pregnancy and the moral stigma attached to it.
It was accepted that men are driven by their testosterone, that was seen to be a good thing, as long as men controlled things.
it is a complicated topic, and I realize that any comment I toss off needs a ton of footnotes and clarification.
