I can't answer to that side, and as I mentioned in a couple other replies, the higher testosterone doesn't seem to be significant enough to cause the increase aggression. Others pointed out the smaller pre-frontal cortex as a cause. You've mentioned the increased estrogen. In all likelihood, it's a combination of many things.
I replied mostly to point out that they do have higher T, and that I wasn't completely off in my recollection :)
