Here is my opinion.

although testosterone is classified as a steroid and illegal without a doctors prescription, it is still a hormone that exists naturally in your body. your testosterone levels can be easily checked with blood tests. its not like you would be flying blind and just waiting to see what happens were you to use it. it can be supplmented to increase naturally decreasing test levels in the body to healthy levels which comes with many side effects that are beneficial to someone who has already seen many years of declining hormone levels. though it has an obvious anabolic effect, it shouldn't be looked at as the same thing as shooting decca durabolin or any other anabolic steroid that is not found in the body.

on a side note, testosterone (all 4 forms/compounds) do not increase muscle mass as significantly as other steroids, is probably one of the least effective for mass gains on its own and for retaining gains and is used only in conjunction with other steroids for significant muscle growth.

as for Joes remark that he doesnt see the point in taking steroids.. its a personal choice. steroids overcome peoples natural genetic limitations to increase muscle mass beyond what they could normally and to do it much faster.

many people don't see the point in smoking pot and agree that it is dangerous and unhealthy... so the arguments can go back and forth about what is pointless and what isn't
