At least that's what one Danish researcher says. Of course, the authors never mention the plethora of studies that contradict this claim. The book relies heavily on a series of experiments designed to find out why some female mice are more aggressive than others.

It must not have ever occurred to the researcher that the testes are located inside male mice and inside is where the testosterone is secreted.
