Maybe males with higher testosterone levels are more drawn to more physically demanding jobs?

Add set of people with office jobs that regularly lift.

You mean the people who sit for 8 hours and exercise for 1 hour per day?

That's not even a bad exercise schedule, More than enough to stay healthy.

Exactly. I know a few big dudes who rock a suit & tie everyday.

Maybe, but according to healthline resistance training (aka lifting) has also been proven to increase short and long term testosterone levels. Therefore, tradies are more likely to have those benefits as they lift heavy stuff a lot. Almost like that's what men were naturally meant to do.

And if you’ve ever had to clean up after (insert favorite target trade here), you know they leave a site like lions leaving a half eaten carcass. Freaking mess.
Let’s say sparkies just for example. :)

There is an argument to be made that humans evolved doing physical activity and to expect your body to be healthy and function properly without physical activity is ridiculous, yet many people completely ignore it and wonder why they don't feel healthy (specifically mentally). It's not that odd of a statement to make.

Nah, I’m drawn to money. I worked office work and now work a trade. Being more physical does increase T-levels.

No reason it can't be both? People with a higher testosterone baseline might feel dissatisfied more quickly by a sedentary job that lowers their testosterone levels.

Are the catcalling construction guys a victim of their jobs increasing their testosterone? If we made a bunch of insurance agents work construction for a year would they start to feel the biological compulsion to yell "why doncha smile?"
