PGJ,
I understand what you're saying, but the 'i need to look manly' is the same excuse guys use to bounce weight off their chest while benching (and tiring out their spotter who has to nearly curl every rep done) when they should really be dropping the weight so they could it properly. My mistake if I assumed that's where you were coming from.
And oh yea, women doing SLDLs (or any DLs for that matter) are great rewards for having to deal with a crowded gym
