    Obviously, she’s attractive. I’ll let someone else posts tired Futurama memes.

    But I’m glad more women are getting into weightlifting and no longer believe the myth about it making you look masculine.

    There was (and still is) a taboo around it, but I think it would do a world of good to a lot of women. Not only does it make you look more attractive, but feeling stronger can be very empowering, and I suspect help you feel safer and more confident.

    Personally, I’ve found it’s great for keeping weight off and tackling mental health issues too. My life may not always go as planned, but I keep lifting, and I keep making (admittedly) slow progress. And when it comes time to lift the washing machine, I no longer have issues.
