      Yeah but it is nice to be able to defend yourself against violent people. Also as the other reply said i do appeal to certain kinds of people and maybe they wouldnt listen to a trans person about trans rights but will listen to me.

      Yes, but I think the point is that strong man types do appeal to a certain demographic that they are trying to influence, not that it appeals or should appeal to themselves or the general population

      No, but it certainly helps (and has helped me) in some situations if you are big guy that looks like being a coal miner (while actually being a keyboard jockey)…
