Mashaallah great article really like it, Jazakallah for posting.
 
I read it again and I don't get some parts, we can determine the energy in the marriage area of an individual by how much testostorone they have, and this can be seen by looking at how deep their voice is and how muscly they are?
 
Think of it this way, the man and woman have to balance each other out. Alpha males are balanced by alpha females. So a guy with a lot of testosterone would be compatible with a woman with a lot of estrogen. An average guy would work with an average woman; they would balance each other out. If a guy with a high level of testosterone married a woman with a low estrogen level, they wouldn't be compatible. Same thing the other way around.

Testosterone makes you masculine, estrogen makes you feminine. So guys with more more testosterone have more masculine features, such as deeper voices, facial hair, muscles, etc. Girls with more estrogen are more feminine, higher voices, softer features, etc.

So just a thought..
Do hormone levels also influence personality? I'm thinking yes, but does anyone know for sure?

I understand what you're saying, but let me give you an example, asian males and females are very hairy, even though alot of them are not 'alpha' they may not have low voices, in that respect I have seen afrian males less hairy but deper voices and more mascular.

So for example, me, I'm not hairy, nor do I have a very deep voice. Is that neccesarily due to me having not as much testostorone as a hairy asian woman?

I would have thought it would also depend on where you are from?
 
Ahh okay, I see what you're saying..Hmmm, that's a good point.
When does the amount of body hair, for example, stop being testosterone and start being genetics?
I think testosterone only starts hair growth during puberty, and then it's genetics?:?:X

Hmm, maybe, and maybe if we compare like wih like, for example, me and my little bro, although he aint fully grown and all he is considerably more hairy than I was at his age, but then again he was born hairy.
 
If he was born hairy I think it's genetics, since testosterone only increases in males during puberty, right?. So it's a combo of genetics and testosterone?.. Maybe there are hormones other than testosterone that play a part in hair growth?

I was just googling about this and I found this: "Pills that have a high estrogen content may be more likely to cause hair growth in women." In response to a woman on birth control who had suddenly grown hair everywhere. So high levels of estrogen also cause hair growth, apparently.

Oh, and I edited out the link because it was about men born females...:X
I guess it does relate to what we're talking about, though..

Oh I don't know. I'm still confused on matters other than this, like, is beauty something that can be defined objectivly? Or is beauty learned?

I thought it was learned, i.e. that we learn what is beautiful, not that we instinctivly know what is.
 
The hormones could tell us exactly what kind of personality must have the other half. Its a new perspective of the relations.

It's silly in my opinion. Get married and keep your trust in Allah. Khalaas.

Wa Alaykum Salam wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

It would make things easier to have some common ground though.

And coming to my previous thing, do scholars really use the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him as a determination of what is beautiful and not?

I was of the impression that that was the definition of Arab beauty at the time, I don't think there's an islamic definition for what beauty is.

And yeah, about whether beauty is learned or instinctive, it's an interesting question... something to think about.
 
asalam alaikum wr wb,


Lol, confusing or what!

ok, looking back from everything I've ever read in my life, I think that both genetics and hormones play a part in physical appearence, but largely genetics.

Why genetics? Because we share similar features to one/both parents etc.
Why Hormones? Because the developing persons body needs these hormones to help it develope i.e. testostrone makes a a person hairy in general. So hormones support the genes to achieve their task? :p

But like habeshi bro said, genetics seems to have the upperhand when it comes to physical appearence. I don't think a genetically less hairier likes to think or even lacks in testostrone, since that also depends on your ethnicity.

However the increase or decrease in hormones via oral route can affect the natural appearence as we know transexuals are given hormones to make desired changes according to the type of sex change they require. And it's also true that some men/women who appear masculine/feminine and whose appearence is appropriate to their gender through genetics, may not behave as they look because deficiency or increase of hormones has given them charateristics of the opposite sex. For example:

1) a feminine looking woman may have male tendencies such as be more aggressive, get hairier, develope a deeper voice

2) masculine looking males begin showing feminine characteristics, such as (Id rather not say)

So can we safely say that hormones can affect the appearence during developement and can alter it at any time but overall if they are balanced then it's due to genetics what a person looks like?


lol blahhh, I only just kinda get that myself.




wa alaikum asalam wr wb.

Wa Alaykum Salam Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

If a guy likes a forward wife, and a wife hates being forward then what?

I thought that too, well abit different understanding but similar.

As for beauty, I think it is learned.
 
I don't think many marriages work like dat..the world would be a better place if that was possible but a person has to relate to the other person somehow in someways in my opinion
