1998 study shows trial lawyers testosterone-crazed, when compared to transactional colleagues.
this according to james dabbs, a georgia state psychologist who asked trial lawyers and corporate lawyers to spit into cups and then measured testosterone content in their saliva. female trial lawyers were no exception, spitting nectar richer in agression than that of corporate law chickens. a 1997 study by dabbs' wife, rebecca, showed subjects with higher testosterone levels spent "more time thinking," than low-testosterone subjects, often with "restless energy."
