Masculinity

John 89 years old and his mates, still cycling long distances on an E-bike.
Masculinity (also called manliness or manhood) is a set of attributes, behaviours,
and roles generally associated with boys and men.
Masculinity is made up of both socially defined and biologically created factors.
Both men and women can exhibit masculine traits and behaviours

It is good seeing the older people still going biking

On a low slung bike to suit his age, good on him for having a go!

John is quite the athlete for his age. This made me think about Fitness and how it is often wrongly associated with Masculine behavior - excluding dance and yoga for the women. But that is finally changing as more and more young women join sports and compete. I bet John has seen a lot of barriers broken in his long lifetime. V
