Yea man beating and oppressing women is real masculine...Yeah, men have more strength than women. But masculinity is more of an attitude, a disposition. It is in you or not part of you. It grows on you more with masculine influences at home, in the neighborhood, and in school. It comes naturally. You can't go to a gym to develop masculinity. You go there to develop muscles and strength.
The Afghans aren't surrounded by gyms, they're surrounded with masculine influences. It's arguable really that they can only lift 50 lb weights. A 25-lb sack of rice is something I carry every once in a while when I run out of rice.
You can put a gym rat out in the field, certainly untested in combat, and what you can expect is for him to use his treadmill skills.
