So?
Odds are, there'll be a couple of guys around picking up two at a time w/o straining.
Look, I don't think it's a problem. The shop I recommend for IGHs is run by a woman. Method can often compensate for weight/strength.
But sometimes, weight/strength can sure come in handy.
And the average male has more of that than the average female.
Any task not related to huge amounts of torque, I wouldn't care.
To me, it's no different than picking a shop depending on tooling.
There's one shop that doesn't ever use tensiometers. I'd never send anyone there for anything wheel related.
But they do OK suspension work.
There's another that has the fairly rare tools for facing disc brake mounts. If that's what I need, there's where I'd go.
If there was a shop employing an ex-Sumo, or maybe a female shot putter, those would probably be high on the list for stuck BBs and similar.
