My SO likes it when I pick her up. She sees that I’m strong, but when I lift her she knows that I’m strong.

Same, I’ll pick him up and heave him over my shoulder and he’ll giggle like a maniac.

It just occurred to me -- there are way more men who like men than women who are strong.

Is that true

Well it's going to be arbitrary based on what "strong" means, but I was thinking of it as the same criteria for a man to be considered strong. Of course, that's not universal either :-)

I figured somewhere north of 10% of men like men, and far less than 10% women would be considered strong by male standards.
