The Neuromantics Season 2 Episode 9 Think you know all about testosterone? Well, you might have to think again after this episode of the Neuromantics, as Will and Sophie discuss the sex-related goings on in our brains. The relationship between testosterone and our brains is not as clear-cut as it is with our bodies, and a scientific paper elaborates on how the hormone can convert in mammal brains into a form of oestrogen. What does this mean for our understanding of masculinity and femininity and socially-determined sexual behaviours? As it's the testosterone episode, it’s only fitting that they should discuss a very Freudian scene in Ian Fleming’s Diamonds Are for Ever, as well as a poignant moment from James Baldwin’s Giovanni’s Room. With neuroscientist Professor Sophie Scott and novelist and poet Will Eaves.
