    I’ve never heard of a guy not wanting their girl to do strength training, that just makes the girl hotter…

    Maybe that’s like an old person thing? Like gen x and older?

      Not sure it’s a generation thing. For example, Gen X grew up with ladies workout videos, thigh master, the little white guy with the Afro, etc. Could this be a reaction to the body positivity movement?

      Maybe it’s not a “this is what men desire” thing but rather a “this is what society as a whole expects of women” thing
