    Over time masculinity has referred more to mental strength than physical strength

    Agree wholeheartedly. What I should’ve said was over time masculinity has referred more to personality traits and actions rather than physical traits

    We have hyper masculine 130lb stick figures walking around post 2000s

    You’re wrong & comparing apples to oranges, I’ll tell you why (with the love). As rightfully impressive as her lifts might be for professional powerlifting women, a professional male power-lifter (of average ranking) who weighs the same as her (270lbs), would literally destroy all her records, just FYI. You’re spreading gross, biased and sexist misinformation with “This lady and others like her are stronger than 99% of men who will ever exist”. You’re comparing a female professional power-lifter to average men.

    Compare her to other power-lifters, male and female, or you’re literally sexist. She’s a professional, so why are you comparing her to regular men?

    Peep the power-lifting standards for men & women here please: strengthlevel.com/powerlifting-standards/lb#standardsMale

    Btw OP, have you ever powerlifted before? Or strongman? Or even wrestled/grappled? Do you have any remote idea on what strength is?

    Like the whole basis of it is being ‘stronger’ (physically and mentally)— that trait is cornerstone of the whole identity

    But when I see people like this — it really exposes how bullshit of an identity that is

    Becca Swanson 6”2 270 pound powerlifting champ

    This lady and others like her are stronger than 99% of men who will ever exist..

    Idk how any average guy can pride themselves on being so manly or strong when there are ladies like these out there who could chuck you 20 feet

    Like you’d have to pretend they don’t exist or do some mental gymnastics and call them manly when they’re at the end of the day women

    Guys get self conscious at the gym when they see a few guys bigger than them or smaller than them lifting more. Can’t imagine what would be the case if more women were into powerlifting seriously as a sport.

    this is steroids though

  • And tbh i could probably beat her up tbh, she big but she aint got heart like me a mf like me would never let my back hit the ground real s***

    No

    Whenever masculinity is used it is almost exclusively within the context of one person judging another person’s so called masculinity. Which is stupid.

    Because there is no agreed upon definition for masculine, everyone has their own take on it. One girl who sees you as masculine, another will think you’re a chump. It’s just stupid to be concerned about some meaningless perception someone has on you.

    Being mentally resilient does not mean you are masculine, being level headed doesn’t mean you are masculine, or assertive. There are plenty of women who hold all the above attributes and act very “girly”.

    Masculinity is stupid because it’s basis comes from archaic gender roles and expectations that is not needed and cannot possibly define what makes every man “a man” in today’s society.

  • Sep 2, 2021

    maybe but there arent any women like that

  • Sep 2, 2021
  • masculine is not a gender op

  • there*

  • Husk_

    Masculinity is a mindset. And a stupid mindset at that

    you are going about this wrong. masculine and feminine energies are best when theyre balanced.

    no the world is not going to be a utopia if everyone is feminine like people want to believe so badly.

    Just because society has had an off balance of these energies for awhile doesnt mean that masculinity should be eliminated and there isnt any value in it

    “If there were more women like this” maybe but there are very few and shes an extreme outlier because… masculinity and femininity are ultimately concepts which came into being because they are grounded in the realities of biological s***as expressed in the majority of people

  • Sep 2, 2021

    Nah men on here would still say she's a weak woman who couldn't possibly stand up to men because she doesn't have a p****.

  • Sep 2, 2021

    You do know not to compare the exception to the norm right

  • Sep 2, 2021

    What if she doesn’t view herself as masculine and OPs just like “look at this strong b**** she more man than the average man”
