"It is harder to be a lifter than a bodybuilder...lifting is purely masculine whereas bodybuilding
entails feminine traits. Bodybuilding reminds me of a woman getting ready to go somewhere. Can you tell me that greasing your body up and posing in front of a
mirror is masculine? A bodybuilder puts strength secondary to his physique, whereas the lifter puts strength foremost because it is more masculine to do
so."
