...A spin-off from the how a man should look thread.
I can open my own jars, carry groceries inside, lift a heavy box, move my furniture around (mostly. Because I picked lightweight furniture). I do need a guy to change a tire. Why would I need one to pull a plane? Mainly I need a guy for overall love and emotional support. It's not about physical strength. It's about strength of character and intelligence.

R4T beat me to it .

I choose men who are strong enough to hold me when I cry and say sweet things without panicking, to tell me the truth when they have messed up and know I will be angry, to watch me rebuild the deck and help me fix the clothes dryer ('cause I need him to lift it , to not care who makes more money or is better at cooking, and to let me hold them when they cry.

And to do some manly stuff that is not PG-13 .

My Uncle got his sweatshirt hood tie (string) caught in a seed escalator Seed Escalators by Jacobs Manufacturing when he was about 60. He freed himself and barely escaped getting pulled all the way into the gears on the belt. He drove his bloody self to the hospital himself in his old 4x4 1 ton Chevy. The thought of 911 never even crossed his mind. It would be 20-30 minutes before they got all the way out to his farm.....

I have several of my own even worse.

I'm not gonna die today.....NO WAY!

Jack LaLane, a celebrity bodybuilder who made a TV career for himself doing exercise shows back around the 1950's, and was the first to push health foods, swam from Alcatraz to San Francisco with his legs shackled towing several boats. He did this in his 50's or 60's. The last I ever heard of him, he was in his 80's, still built and absurdly strong, and often found himself surrounded by bodybuilder babes who said he was their inspiration. Kind of a niche market, but some women do like strong types.

Do you want him to struggle to open a jar?
Do we know that lids are put on jars by a machine? I don't see that as a good measure.

Do you want him to be able to carry the groceries inside?
If he has had back surgery or a vasectomy, no.
If he is able-bodied and sitting on the couch with a remote in his hand, yes.

Do you want him to pick up a heavy box?
Same as previous answer.

Do you want him to move the furniture around?
Same as previous answer.

Do you want him to sweep you off your feet and carry you to the bedroom?
If he can't do the first couple things, he isn't going to be able to do this one. LOL

Do you want him to flip a heavy tire?
What is "flipping" a tire?

Do you want him to pull a plane?
Huh? Is he Superman? Or is "plane" another word for "junk"? BAHA, HA, HA, HA

JEBUS..post hole diggers,combines etc etc will eat your ass without mercy.

That's me too..the thought of getting those keys removed at the hospital never dawned on me either...I guess we are just wired wrong or something..I can't tell you how many stitches I've sewn for myself and buddies...I draw the line at cutting my own fish hooks out though and now go to a walk in clinic that's not to far from here to have that done...I stuck one all the way to the curve in my neighbor's ass last year and he wanted me to get it out and normally I would've,but he was on blood thinners and a diabetic on top of that..the Doc explained all of the infections we could get etc etc and now I just go to him so I don't get blood poisoning..of course,he could've just been trying to drum up biz with that scare talking too.

Women want men who are strong in many other ways besides just physically
