Not all women will do that. A lot of women from where I grew up on the farm do some pretty crazy "men's" work lol. Although you're right, I don't think I've ever seen a woman mow a lawn. My grandma does with the riding mower but that's just because her lawn is huuuuuuuuge, and I wouldn't even use a hand mower on it. But some women do like hedgework, shovel snow, and stuff.

I don't mean to be stereotypical, but women just don't grow muscle mass like men do. I don't mind when there's limitations there. But yea if she gives up just because she's being lazy or is not used to endurance work, that's a different story.
