As I've gotten older, videos that wouldn't have elicited a reaction when I was a teen, I now find very unpleasant. I'm not sure why that is, but I do find it interesting.

I don't know how much of it is hormonal, but I think that testosterone does play a role in emotional processing, and I think that the levels teenage boys deal with is often enough to make some intense feelings difficult to access.

It could also be related to life experience and what you find relatable now vs then.
