Every time I wear my “Testosterone” shirt I get strange reactions.
Usually along the lines of “Testosterone, huh”? ,
but the other day at school(College) a couple of girls thought that it meant I was on steroids. WTF?
Personally I think the Shirt is awesome and makes a bold and powerfully masculine statement.
What kind of reactions do you guys get when wearing your T-Men shirts?
People (women especially) tend to look at it as if the shirt says “FUCK”

I avoid wearing it considering that everybody at my gym already thinks that I’m on steroids (well they think that anybody who bench presses over 225lbs is on steroids). I prefer to wear my Biotest or HOT-ROX shirt. Still supportive of the team.

What do you mean by that? Are they totally repulsed by it?
I think its funny anyone would assume fedorov91 to be on steroids, ha ha. Just kidding man. I can’t wait to get a couple T-Nation shirts.
Quote from the GF the last time I wore my “Testosterone” shirt:
“Do you read what your clothes say before you buy them?”
Whatever dear, I’ll remember that the next time you tell be how buff I am.
Christian,
I have always been curious how many times you get to answer the “Wonder what that guy’s on question?” Personally, you are a bench mark for a lot of us physique wise. I look forward to everyone “thinking” I am juiced.
How far in advance do you plan your training? Does your training log resemble a science book? I am imagining the Beast carrying around this huge binder during his training session…
A friend of mine gave his brother a Testosterone shirt. Kid wore it to church camp and was made to change it because it was “inappropriate.”
BTW, I’m doing a T-shirt giveaway in my current <a href=“http://www.t-nation.com/category.jsp?categoryID=37&pageNo=1"target="new”>blog. Come try for one!
As a teacher, I recently had a week’s spring break and spent it at my family’s house where I grew up. I wore that shirt and in one morning:
My mom: “You know, I really hate that shirt.”
later…
An old woman after I held the door open for her at a McDonald’s (hey, I was visiting a friend and pressed for time, sue me): “Oh, thank you— my, I don’t like that shirt! Where did you get it?”
“From a web site.”
“Oh, that’s what I thought.”
I tend to get a more positive reaction with women my age. The occasional few would ask me something stupid and I’d say something along the line of “It’s a bodybuilding magazine” (please publish it again, I had a bloody subscription) or “It’s my favorite hormone.”
Mine usually has a stain dribbling down the front of it. Usually it’s a Grow! stain. But somtimes for cheat night we like to frequent an all-you-can-eat chinese buffet, and when I wear my ‘T’ shirt, I inevitably wear a bunch of egg drop soup home.
This thread is too funny. I am actually wearing my Testosterone shirt right now sitting on the couch. Whenever I wear it to the gym women just stare at it. I have only had one guy make a comment…he asked me what it was and then later asked if I could get him some juice…asshole.
Anyway, I’m proud to wear it, and could give a f*@k less what everyone who reads it thinks. People are sheep and they are scared to do anything different. That is why we are in shape, and others are not.
I almost always get a great response. Starts conversations with girls quickly leading right below the belt.Nothing says “I got a pair and I ain’t afraid to use em” like the T shirt. I’m sure that that’s what Il Cazzo meant.
From guys the response is usualy “shit man, where did you get that” type stuff.
The important thing is how you wear it. Wear it proud, and have a body to put in it. Wear it like you mean it.
I can’t wait for the Alpha Male and shirt.That is gonna be a howl.
Well i use a laptop for high school. So, ofcourse i have a T-Nation background, so kids in my calsses are all ways like “why do you have that as a background, what are you on roids?” I usually say talk to me when you go to the gym and get ur ass in shape.
I would LOVE an Alpha Male T-shirt but they only come in XL right now. Any news on when they will be available in all sizes?
I love my Testosterone t-shirt, I was wearing it in Wal-Mart one time and some woman looked at me kind of funny, read the words slowly and said to me: “Testosterone, that’s what’s wrong with the world today.”
I looked at her and said: “Only when it aromatizes to estrogen.” And then I walked away, leaving her with a dumb look on her face.
Once on a trip to Boston, I had my Testosterone shirt on and a jacket on over it. The bus driver could kinda read it (since the jacket was not zipped up) and he said “does that shirt say what I think it says?” I said “yep” and he was like “cool man, cool”. I love my “T” shirts …

There is a reason it only comes in XL, Napoleon.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
I get a few “testosterone” with eye rolls, and then I have had a bunch of girls walk up and say, cool, shirt, as they undress me with thier eyes.

Imagine the confused comments if I started wearing one. This could be fun…
Most common react is someone looks at it and, while they dissapprove, out of politeness they say “Testosterone?” and I reply “Yeah, it’s kind of like a warning label.”
