The only T I produce is via the adrenal glands same as any other woman!
For which I am duly grateful! :o)
If we play fight, he wins. For why? Because he's taller than me, bigger than me and more muscular than me.

At peak, Melb lockdown was: Only allowed outside of the house for one of the "four reasons" - 1 shopping trip by one person only, caring for someone, 1 hour of exercise, and work/study (but only if essential/couldn't be done from home), and all of the above restricted to within 5km of home (unless an exemption granted). Schools/childcare closed, restaurants closed, cinemas closed, weddings and funerals heavily restricted. No visits to anyone's house. Night-time curfew 8pm-6am or so.
"lifting" meant moving to: 2 hours of exercise allowed. One nominated visitor allowed for singles/single parents. Exercise up to 2 hours, still within 5km. Curfew was eased slightly - 9pm-5am. Schools, restaurants, cinemas etc were still closed. Workplaces were WFH where possible.
... have the restrictions in the UK been anywhere near that level at any point ?

Mothers on the brink
"But who really has the energy to be angry — or even to advocate for change — when they’re just trying to get through the day?"
I feel this so much right now.
Just hanging on until things get easier.
