Well, personally, I find non-body built women to be better looking, but it's to do with the "preference of lines', Like, I like "smooth" outlines on a person's body and one that reminds me of elegance of a curled frond, men achieve this look too and it's the type of look I like in men. (just sharing my perception of beauty).

Now the part about "these women are "trying to become men", these comments have always rubbed me the wrong way.", those comments feel wrong to me too. They're women who just like to sculpt their bodies and one time, I wished I had that body too. I can imagine the respect I can demand, but that doesn't mean I'm trying to be a "man", I just want to empower myself and I imagine that some of these ladies, might even want to do that too. Those men, I'm not surprised, probably find it "jarring' to see a woman who can overpower them. My cynism and misandry will say "they fear the muscle bound woman", but there's me trying to find the most logical view point that in the case of men aren't being intimidated or shocked, they're probably speaking from a respectable kind of way from the perspective of seeing their muscle bound bros who are musclly...but then again, if it was was respectable it wouldn't be "trying" now would it?

I'm trying to imagine the tone here to give a benefit of the doubt, but it's not working, because my bet is that you probably wouldn't post this if it didn't sound bad in tone and as if like these men are taking the existence of these ladies as an affront to themselves.
