Like if I am venting and don't need help, just someone to listen...etc.
This may be more of a Soffa question, is there a Soffa thread?

I am not on T.
However, from my understanding if a person was mild mannered before T, there is not reason to expect that they are going to become these raging people.
It is like a second puberty, but with testosterone this time (just like teenage boys). IF the guy on T feels some increased aggressiveness, he just learns to control it like any other guy. I have heard guys say that if they were a "hot head" before T that it was a bit harder to manage after they got on T. But they learn to. Like Snow said, no free passes!
You interact with them like any other person in your life. It is not like they are aliens, Apoc!
