in the dark ages, most women had to work in the fields, and would actually be much stronger than the average modern man. Only aristocratic women would be non-muscular, because they didn't have to fight or farm. That's why slim women were sought after, they were a symbol of wealth and power.
'strong woman=masculine' is a sexist trope as old as time.
Some peoples minds are stuck in the dark ages.
not even dark age old, remember how soviet women were considered less feminine because they had more rights & job opportunities?
oh course, they were simultaneously weak victims of soviet oppression forcing them to go to university
(in western propaganda)
