Where Did The "Warrior-Gene" Come From? (Exploring MAO-Gene Repeats By Region/Population) Warrior-Gene Origin - Arabic, Maori, Hispanic/Latin, Roman or Viking Origins?

The Warrior Gene is a gene linked to better Risk-Assessment [1], and increased Risk-taking behavior as well [2] as, in some cases, increased Violence in response to Provocation [3]



...but Where did it come from? What gene line does it truly 'originate'?


NOTE for Clarity on Reference 4: Not looking purely at the PERCENTAGE of certain Ethnic backgrounds but the density and when controlled for other genomic differences - arrives at the Conclusions stated. 

Since the overwhelming majority of Warrior-Gene Carriers (in America) are Ethnically Hispanic (Latino/Latina) [4] or African [5] - one could suggest a common-place in origin that crosses over in both Countries. But estimates say this gene is pretty old - only certain forms of it, of course. This also does not take into consideration GLOBAL Ethnic Studies which actually show the Chinese and Maori are the most significant populations [6]. See study on Han Chinese and MAO-L gene here

Additionally, outside of America the Warrior-Gene is not especially prevalent in ALL Spanish/Iberian populations but does have a clear association with Violent behavior and abnormal Behavior in those of predominantly Spanish and Catalan Ancestry [!].

...But now let's use some logic, the Maori are NOT Mass-Migrating populations (generally) - the Chinese on the other hand are - but not every Family of each race who are principle ancestors of many Americans - had a Chinese partner at some point in the Family...but there may have been some with "other Asian" background [7] [8] [9]. Recent studies also Reflect this Admixture - although now to a Greater Extent. 

In addition - a further report stating that 1 in 200 Men of ALL Ethnic Background are related to the Great Mongolian Conqueror - Genghis Khan [10] provides indirect evidence that a Mongolian Origin could be responsible for disseminating this gene.


  • Mongolia DNA Databases such as this one have shown a high amount of "branching out" and Haplogroup Spread amongst practically all Nations.
  • Complex Research Studies on Genghis Khan and other Mongolian Descendants show further information justifying the use of the above in such a way.
Some of Genghis Khan's descendants settled in the Melanesia/Polynesia area [11]. Many Blogger's have brought up this aspect in further discussion (see here) (see here). His Y-DNA was also found in Northern European/Eurasian individuals [12]. Genealogy forums have frequently brought up the WorldWide Mongol influence on multiple Populations DNA.

In regards to Native Americans; its well-known they have significant genetic similarities with Asians in many cases (see study here).

Since Native Americans have been found with the Warrior-Gene variants in some cases - it can be a supporting reference for the possible Asian or Mongolian origin of the Gene.

...On the other hand, the concept of a "Warrior-Gene" was discussed in great detail by a Pakistani Journal of Medicine - and indicated with supporting references (inferences) that a Middle-Eastern origin could be more accurate. 

In order to head down that road though - we would have to ASSUME genetic relevance in Asia or at least mixed people of African or Hispanic descent - because of which there is NOT much Evidence for the Maori having significant Middle Eastern Y-haplogroups of relevance. However, Africans certainly share A LOT of DNA with those of Middle Eastern/Arabic Heritage [13].

Considering the Maori people, for example, were originally of Taiwanese/East Asian stock [see here] - an Asian Origin is most likely... but let's explore other theories just for the 'hell of it.

(BTW - Some great examples here and here regarding RECENT Aggressive Incidents with NEW ZEALAND folk (NEW MAORI). Also you simply CAN'T IGNORE the absolutely SAVAGE Maori WAR DANCES [see here].



EXPLORING A ROMAN-ORIGIN?

Yes, The Romans were great Conquerors and prolific rulers - credited with creating large and abundant societies - and branching out in endless bouts of Expansion [14] - however - even their DNA was DIVERSE and many Roman Emperors were of VERY different Ancestry [15].

Rome was thus a CENTRAL point and a Country defined by Migration; inward and outward. 

Thus - there is no such thing as "Roman" DNA in the traditional sense...even if most who are related to a FAIR degree of Roman Warriors or Emperors reside in Italy [16].

However...it is possible for us to see a correlation to the Roman Expansion and some Publications have suggested *something* that happened to the DNA of the people in Rome may have caused the Warrior-Gene type mutations [17].

Other Reviews also show genetic diversity among Rome but differ in Cross-Over results.


PROBLEMS WITH DEFINING "COUNTRY" OR POPULATION OF ORIGIN IN WARRIOR-GENE

The Major issue with trying define a Population or Ethnic Group responsible for spreading the Warrior-Gene is that it is ONLY passed down on the X-Chromosome [18].

The most convincing aspects of the Research indicate X-X and beyond mediated passing of the Warrior Gene MAO-Variants [19].

...That means purely a FEMALE-Line is essentially Responsible - but we don't know if the ORIGINAL passer is most definitely the Female Main descendant or which Female relative on which part of the X-Chromosome...or even HOW exactly the Mutation occurs and whether there are DEFINITE aspects that over-ride it...though it seems unlikely and most Papers cite that if the Mother possesses the Gene its pretty much guaranteed to pass-down to HER Children [20].

A FEMALE-VIKING Responsible for the Gene???

Vikings were prolific pro-creators; sometimes by Rape but most often NOT by Rape - and they did A LOT of co-mingling with other populations [21]

The Females were particularly notorious - mainly because other populations had never really seen a Female having such 'Masculine' traits and an even remotely COMPARABLE ability to handle Pain - which these Women were known for [22].

Its possible - that given the IMMUNE-SYSTEM differences between Men & Women [23] - that one or many Female Viking Warriors had an "adaptational" bodily-response (perhaps during injury) and that some Pathogen "knocked-out" the MAO-related Genes [24].

Since Finn's (people of Finland/Finnish descent) have nearly the LARGEST incidence of the Warrior-Gene among Whites [see here] and given the geographical proximity between Finland and the other Nordic Nations - it may lend some support to the FEMALE-Viking Origin Hypothesis of the Origin of the Warrior-Gene.

...Its all just a THEORY though. 

Probably not a very good one - because even though it gives a CAUSATIVE Explanation - it does not bode well with LARGE-SCALE studies...we aren't ALL descended from a FEMALE Scandinavian line [25].

Moreover, the Vikings (including Females) didn't have a particularly long Life Expectancy due to a particularly Stressful "Warrior-Lifestyle".



^ That Review also dives into the FACT that YES there is CROSS-OVER between ALL POPULATIONS at some point - it does not hit the consistency where EVERYONE has the DNA-Markers from each Population...quite obvious.

The Warrior-Gene thus is UNLIKELY to originate from Viking populations - even if they were the World's Greatest Warriors (I believe they were, but it is disputed) [22].

Other Stuff: One Blogger [see here] outlined some nice research showing that the people of Finland may also be (many of them) related to Mongolians - so this again seems to come back to the Asian-Origin of the Warrior-Gene.

Many Brits and Irish have "Viking" and Norman Ancestry [!] - so that could support the research that populations of Celtic Origin have a high incidence of Warrior-Gene among Whites.

Other Viking "Gene" studies seem to separate the DNA-research atypically and have connected other dots with regard to "Viking" and "Celtic" genes.

A LATIN/HISPANIC ORIGIN???

Even though Africans typically have DNA from the Middle East, and Hispanics often have African DNA - not all Hispanics have Middle Eastern/Arabic DNA and Asian DNA is sometimes and sometimes not [23].

Other Reviews on Ancient Origins of The Peoples of the Iberian Peninsula also have similar conclusions.

A Genetic Study on Americans of various Ethnic Groups shows similar diversity with high-amounts of Variability - also proving the conclusions here.

Moreover, "Iberian Peninsula" type DNA is NOT a Common Finding in a Majority of individuals of White-European Ancestry - however, the Ancient Irish DNA (and Irish are known for their "hot tempers") does seem to often ORIGINATE in Spain or other areas of the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal etc) [24].

Additionally, some Italians [25], Sicillians [26] and Calabrians [26] have been found to have Spanish/Iberian DNA.

Other Populations in Europe have varying degrees of Spanish DNA [27].

Perhaps most importantly - high Fertility rates are observed in Spanish Women [28] and historically have plentiful offspring [29] and they too - have always had elegant and Warrior-Like Characteristics [30].


The Above Review shows that Iberian Peninsula Haplogroups do have far-reaching Prevalence and in themselves are quite diverse. Yet, some aspects of their DNA may, like Italians have somewhat of a strong connection to the Roman Civilizations.

DIRECT EXAMPLES OF "WARRIOR" SPANISH NATURE

A Hispanic-Murderer who murdered a Man from New Mexico - his name was "Anthony Blaz Yepez" was a HUGE CASE for the Warrior-Gene hypothesis of Violent Crime - as he, like many others from specific South American heritage indeed had the Warrior-Gene; confirmed by SEVERAL tests [!].

Mexico has a particularly HIGH incidence of the Warrior-Gene [!] - the highest among all Hispanic/Latin Nations.

THING IS: They (Mexicans) also have strong admixture with African DNA representing a large degree of 'surprising' Ancestry results [!].

Then in the same paper - Native (Indian) populations contribute greatly to Mexican DNA.

INDIRECT EVIDENCE: No one can IGNORE the seemingly never-ending Violence in Mexico and Colombia by their Resident Drug-Trafficking and Weapon stockpiling organizations [!] they are particularly Violent and Ruthless - and many of their OWN MEMBERS have been found to possess the "Warrior-Gene" [see here].

OTHER STUFF SUPPORTING (MAYBE) A LATIN-ORIGIN FOR THE MAO-L GENE.

Going back to a MAIN CONCLUSION: Even though a SPANISH or LATIN Origin may EXPLAIN the relatively high incidence of Warrior-Gene carriers among IRISH/CELTIC populations [!] - technically some others (see here) - it does not actually explain the fact that the HIGHEST Incidence in Global Percentage is clearly Asian and Maori [!].

And the same argument for African high-incidence can explain density differences in Spanish Populations since some of those populations (Colombia, Mexico, Cuba) have more African DNA anyhow [!].

Besides, many Irish-peoples have other "abnormal" MAO-repeats [!] which have been (more clearly) associated with Mental Disorders (like ADHD) among the Irish.

Temperament-Studies also don't support a (comparatively) higher level of Aggression among Irish versus other European individuals - but do show higher rates of Neuroticism.

OTHER ITALIAN "ITALI" ORIGINS?

Adam Lanza - the famous American Mass Murderer responsible for the Sandy Hook School Shooting was also found to have significant Brain Volume Abnormalities and the "Warrior-Gene" - he too had Italian Ancestry.

In another landmark case, an Italian-man's sentence was reduced due to his finding that he had the  "Low-Activity" MAO-Variant - the "Warrior-Gene" [see here].

His name was "Stefania Albertani" - the name indicates Northern Italian Ancestry (at least Paternally) and has the largest density/frequency in Italy - followed by Latin Nations like Argentina, Cuba and Portugal [see here].

Problem is - we DON'T know - and now NEVER WILL - the FULL Ancestry of Mr.Albertani - and to ASSUME his Mother was FULL-ITALIAN would be beyond stupid!

...However - that does not DEMOLISH the Idea that an Italian-Origin COULD be at play since Italians currently populate virtually every region in Europe and particularly America - and more Africans than you'd like to think have an at least PARTLY Italian Ancestor somewhere on the line [!].

However...on the FLIP-SIDE, many Italians have a North-African Ancestry [!] where the MAO-Warrior Gene is ESPECIALLY prevalent [!].

Larger studies like this one on Italian-genetics show an exceptionally DIVERSE genome and Origin Diversity - some of which may lead back to Asia, in some cases.

Another study shows that Baboon's (Papio) who have their version of the MAO-repeat also exhibited similar Behavioral Characteristics to Humans that have it - ironically, the same Review attempted to place emphasis on African-populations (comparatively), a strategy that probably could have been modified a bit before Publication.


IRISH/CELTIC ORIGIN - EXPANDED

An "Irish Genome" Analysis [!] may have been the first opportunity to dive into the very unique Celtic DNA Legacy. 

The "Irish-Temper" is a VERY Real thing though [!], particularly among Young Irish Females [!] and thus it is NECESSARY to Explore a possible CELTIC Origin for the Warrior-Gene - although that would not explain the unprecedented Incidence among Maori, Finns or "other" European Ancestry, either.

Besides, English/U.K drivers actually had a higher incidence of "Road-Rage" and such [!] than Irish.

There is VERY little ACTUAL Supporting Research for an Irish-Origin to this Gene - and other "bad habits" associated with the Irish - like excessive Drinking, have been associated with other gene polymorphisms [!].

The predominant NeuroPsychiatric Symptom IN IRELAND and nearby is actually ANXIETY [!]. There is A LOT of Public Outcries and Rage [see here] but most of these are pretty reasonable in the circumstances referred.

Also - many Irish/Celtic folks have a gene that leads their body to absorb too much IRON [!] - that is the condition Genetic Hemochromatosis. Widely seen as a "Celtic Gene" and sometimes even a "Celtic Signature" among European Health Population Studies [!].

This IRON OVERLOAD can lead to "RAGE" and other symptoms of "neurotoxicity" and such which may be a more 'COMMON' accurate explanation for neurotic and Aggressive traits among the Irish [!].

Many Psychiatric-outpatients are found with Iron-overload; especially "treatment-resistant" ones [!].

ANOTHER POSSIBILITY: DUTCH SETTLERS - TO SOUTH AFRICA AND ELSEWHERE!!!

The "Warrior-Gene" was actually FIRST FOUND in a Dutch Population with unusually Aggressive Behavior [!].

Dutch were major settlers of this Unique part of Africa; South Africa - as are those of English descent.

Bradley Waldroup's Murder of His Wife's Friend was another famous Court Case where his Warrior-Gene was a key discussion [!]. The Waldroup Surname Origin might suggest an English Ancestry, for him.

...Though, other Papers suggest part (Maternal) Dutch/Germanic Ancestry as well for him. 

Then that may lend some indirect support for the "Dutch Origin" of the "Psycho-Gene".

The collection of cases related to this genetic phenomenon were all put into that same paper - Can Your Genes Make You Kill?

BALTIC/POLISH/RUSSIAN/SLAVIC ORIGIN?

Many Americans are at least in part, of Polish or other Slavic-Descent - but these groups aren't particularly known for being "more violent" than others and the MAO-L Warrior-Gene does not occur at a Great Frequency in Poland anyway [!].

Among Polish samples the Warrior-Gene is not only NOT in high-Frequency, that is, rarely found - but its usually HIGH-Activity Alleles (if any) found in many Polish - especially those with NeuroPsychiatric Disorders; such as Depression.

...That along with the fact that there is the LOWEST Amount of Genetic Similarities between Asian, African and Slavic Groups

In Aggressive individuals with Polish-Ancestry/Descent - that can be blamed on other "mutations" like Val158Met COMT [!].

Although - Russians do have a relatively HIGH-Frequency of MAO-L (3R/T) Gene's versus other Slavic Populations [!] [!!] [!!!] - this does not cross over into other populations as Russia is a UNIQUE DNA-group and there's NO WAY IN HELL that the MAORI, AFRICANS, ASIANS or even WHITES can all CLAIM Russian-Ancestry specifically.

Also - like with the Polish Samples - Russians are marked by significant Genetic Diversity and multiple varying Polymorphisms - which by nature of the occurrence of these mutations - shows that these are to be considered to a greater extent than MAO-A variants, in relation to Aggression among this Population/Ethnicity [!].

GeneCards also places considerable emphasis on the span of the Warrior-Gene and its 'travel pattern' (based on NIH-sponsored studies)

ROMANIAN ORIGIN???

Romanian Population studies often separate the 'traditional' Transylvanian Genome (Romanian) with Wallachian & Moldovan DNA - and hundreds of years ago (see Blog discussion here) - this population difference may have not been the same as it is now...due to more Migration and Diversity among these populations - which has introduced a LARGER Slavic Element than every before to these Nations (Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian etc).

Moreover - even though Romania had some pretty BRUTAL Rulers in the long-ago past - their Civilization - on the whole, then and Now doesn't really tell a Tale of Heightened Aggression - but maybe Heightened Senses & Enhanced Instincts/Powers of Perception [!].

Finally - most studies do not suggest an Eastern European Origin or even 'Transylvanian' Origin for the Warrior-Gene variants [!].

A JEWISH ORIGIN???

While Ancestry-related phrases like "European Jewish", "Ashkenazi Jewish" and "Sephardic Jewish" have made their way (Recently) into defining specific Jewish-population related Gene Mutants (contrasting to others) [!] - the MAO-Low Activity Variants are not (typically) the Genes set for Discussion in relation to Jewish Personality and Psychological Characteristics of Jews [!].

...And although there are certainly some cold-hearted Jews there is not really a TREND towards Violence among Jewish-populations or those with part-Jewish or Full-Jewish Ancestry in America.

Lastly, Africans and Asians who represent the Highest Frequencies of MAO-L Warrior-Gene besides the Maori peoples very RARELY have even MARGINAL amounts of Jewish DNA [!].

This does not make a convincing case for a Jewish Basis for Origin of The "Warrior-Gene".

There's also other aspects of Jewish-Biology that can explain PERCEIVED Behavioral Differences; such as Religion and Pharmacogenetics of Jewish individuals.

If you were to elucidate a CONNECTION of the "Warrior-Gene" in Jewish Populations - you should START with the FACT that MANY Jews have Middle Eastern DNA [!].

In those studies the "Near-East" Haplogroups often lead back to Middle Eastern Populations of significant Mongolian-Influence; leading again to a Mongolia-derived source/origin for the Warrior-Gene.

In conclusion - and with this last study - we show that a Jewish Origin or ANY Variety Ashkenazi or Sephardic is NOT Likely the Origin for the MAO-Low Activity Variants/Alleles.

EASTERN INDIAN OR 'TRUE' INDIAN (SOUTH ASIAN) ORIGIN???

East Indians and Indians in general are not necessarily Aggressive Peoples - but some aspects of their culture promote HIGH Stress even if they strive greatly to PREVENT and ALLEVIATE that Stress.

This "Genetic-Testing-Environment" should make a Perfect Storm to set forth an IMPACT of those with abnormal gene variants in India; such as the "Warrior-Gene" or MAO-L Gene [!]. Although - most variants studied in Indian-populations indicate are the "Split-Type" and many times the High-Activity Type [!].

That Perfect Storm never occurs in India - not in a Magnitude STUDIED, at least.

...And not in America 'neither.

This - coupled with the fact that South Asian DNA is pretty unique with minimal inter-racial co-mingling and reproduction with those of other 'Opposite' Genetic Background suggest that this MAO-A Gene Variant defined in Science as the "Psycho Gene" or "Warrior Gene" by many publications does NOT Originate in India or South Asia.





MIDDLE-EASTERN "PERSIAN" ORIGIN???

The Genetic Crossover between Mongols and the Persian Empire is SIGNIFICANT - both INWARD and OUTWARD Migration and Haplogroup Tests from (CLOSE) Genghis Khan's Relatives have revealed significant shared aspects with regard to ORIGIN - with some Arabic Populations.

Iranian (New Persian) Mitochondrial-DNA Studies also emphasizes similar findings.

Y-DNA Tests on Iranians show (Paternal) DNA is more similar with other Arabic Populations with a bit less genetic diversity.

Abdelmalek Bayout - an Algerian National with mixed Algerian/Arabic Ancestry had his sentenced reduced - much like Albertani in Italy's finest courts - and he accepted the offer with Glee. Why? Because he too, has the "Warrior-Gene" [!].

This again, supports a Racial-Density Paradigm among those populations/Ethnic Groups that correspond with Mongol inhabitance/DNA.

...It does NOT Support an Arabic Origin for the "Warrior-Gene" simply because the Middle-East/West Asia does not have the HIGHEST Density/Frequency of this Gene Variant - and it would if it was the Origin.


BACK TO AFRICA AND ASIA - THE FINAL CONCLUSION AND MOST LIKELY RELATIONSHIP

If we were to ASSUME there is ONE common Origin for all MAO-Warrior Gene variants - we would have to examine the *MOST LIKELY* continuum - many East Africans genetically come from somewhere in Asia [!] [!!] - and East Africa has an EVEN HIGHER incidence of the MAO-Warrior-Gene than North Africa [!]

There are also studies like this one - which connect other regions of Africa to an Asian origin.

Other "Near-East" and various Asian-DNA Mixtures have been tied by specific Haplogroups to Families in Africa. 

Thus - the high INCIDENCE amongst BOTH Africans and Asians - more than any other Ethnic Group - besides the Maori - who are ALSO of Asian descent - indicates ASIA - particularly EAST ASIA as the MOST LIKELY Origin for the "Warrior-Gene".

Although SOME Studies CLAIM that it is the other-way around [!], and East Asians were originally African - this claim was largely DEBUNKED Harshly and Assuredly by a later study.

A Population study on different families of different Ethnic Background in AMERICA also shows significant Asian-Crossover in these populations - when examining TOTAL Haplogroup studies of both Y-DNA and Mitochondrial DNA.

DEBATE: Not many East Asians are exceptionally VIOLENT or AGGRESSIVE - BUT they do make GREAT Business Decisions and score very high on traits like "good judgement" and "fast decision maker" [!] which are associated with the Warrior-Gene positive individuals [!].

...There is a whole lot of Asian-Organized Crime in East Asia though [!] and these particular Organized Crime Syndicates tend to be the 'most ruthless' [!].

Of course, some articles like this one give good evidence that East Asian Criminal Gangs are marked mainly by their Highly Intelligent and Sophisticated nature.

CRITICAL-THINKING: Its also possible (even PROBABLE) that the Asians that possess the "Warrior-Gene" are less affected by it because they don't (generally) have other "risk-factors" such low Socio-Economic status, low IQ coupled with HIGH Testosterone and Childhood Trauma/Abuse. [!]

Although in some cases the MAO-Variants may affect IQ themselves [!].

AFRICA: Since Africa remains a Central Discussion in relation to the Warrior-Gene and their mishmash of Risk Factors in their home countries and America - generates the potential to really RELEASE the Warrior-Genes impact upon Society - it remains TRUE that for many, it is the African aspect AND Origin (DNA-Wise) that perpetuates the notoriety of this gene-mutant.



OTHER PROBLEMS WITH DETERMINING (CONCLUSIVELY) A Warrior-Gene Origin.

  1. Not Everyone inherits EVERY Single aspect of their Parents DNA. Not all DNA is inherited equally, often Brothers and Sisters inherit some parts of some relatives DNA [31] and this has been reflected in the differences of DNA-Percentages between Siblings [32].
  2. Another Report also states that Genetic Identity influences individuals Proclivity to sharing or not-sharing data with organizations that collect such data for Informational or Practical Genetic Research and that genetic diversity is *often* hard to determine because of Point 1 [33].
  3. There are several different forms of the "Warrior-Gene" - each with their own unique sequence; their own unique "Deletion": The 3-Repeat Form [34] the 2-Repeat Form [35] and the 5-Repeat Form [36].
  4. The "Warrior-Gene" isn't always studied in relation to "Aggressive" or even "Risk-Taking" behavior - sometimes the low-activity alleles are simply studied in relation to non-aggressive but self-destructive behavior such as Smoking Behavior [37] - because the MAJORITY of studies on MAO-A related genes are NOT demographic/statistical studies and because it has relevance to other aspects of Behavior and a (generally) non-linear relationship with Aggression...not much time has been taken by National/Global sources to determine an origin - or an exact "response" that preempted Positive Selection.
  5. Other studies such as this one - have concluded that HIGH-Activity MAO-A alleles can cause/provoke "Externalizing Behaviors" and this is in (nearly) direct contrast to the Majority of Research causing the Nickname for low-activity Variants; the "Warrior-Gene".
  6. Thus - some Scholar's and Researchers - due to the "Contradictory" evidence do not find much ambition in the Mission of finding the Origin of the Warrior-Gene - and not much of the PUBLIC is too enthused by it - at least at this point - further diminishing motivations to embark on The  Journey of (Seemingly) Endless Research which may never come up with a CONCLUSIVE Answer...and not EVERY POPULATION is interested in contributing to Science's Excessive Requirements.

  1. Hello viewers around the Globe, I was despondent because i had a very small penis, about 2.5 inches soft and 4 inches hard not nice enough to satisfy a woman, i have been in so many relationship, but cut off because of my situation, i have used so many product which doctors for me, but none could offer me the help i searched for. i saw some few comments on the INTERNET about this specialist called Dr,OLU and decided to contact him on his email: Drolusolutinthome@gmail.com) so I decided to give his herbal product a try. i emailed him and he got back to me, he gave me some comforting words with his herbal pills for Penis Enlargement, Within 3 week of it, i began to feel the enlargement was surprised when she said that she is satisfied with my sex and i have got a large penis. Am so happy, thanks to Dr OLU I also learn that Dr OLU also help with Breast Enlargement Hips and Bums Enlargement etc.. If you are in any situation with a little Penis, weak ejaculation, small breast_hips_bums do get to Dr OLU now for help on his email (Drolusolutionhome@gmail.com) or add him on whatsapp line +2348140654426
