Yeah I think there’s a strong generational divide on it. I remember seeing gen X worried about looking too muscular meanwhile on the young millennial and older gen z end a lot of women my age want to look at least a little buff if they’re the type to go to the gym and lift weights.
True. I just don't think it's the place of someone to tell that 'women aren't interested in that', because even if people hold the opinion or lack the motivation behind that, those statements would not be the reason that women are not to have interest in muscles.
Location is a big variable. I live in south america, women are praised for their big butts. That's what they train the most.
That’s a good point. Here in the US, butts are the primary targets (myself included) but many women also do upper body targeting for a variety of reasons
