what a bunch of douchebags. of course if you're around a pretty girl you'll offer to carry the big load and impress her with your guns (that's what here in 'merica we call biceps). chivalry and male display are instinctual behaviors-- don't tell me you don't stand up straight from your usual paunch-forward slouch the moment an attractive woman walks into the room. oh yeah, inflate that chest. biology!
but TO BITCH ABOUT IT is a complete load of ass. i pity the low-testosterone fools. j'accuse! or something.
