> Men with dogs will be perceived as more masculine than men with cats. Would a skinny guy with a chiuaua look more muscular than a bulkier guy with a cat? What about fat guy with a retreiver? If you are average build do cats add a "gentle giant" vibe? As opposed to a "tiny dick"/"he is compensating" stereotype if he had a pitbull? The car stereotypes are interesting, it use to be that a muscle car or a big truck made you look stronger but now it has the opposite effect. Overt displays if masculinity can be mistaken for insecurity about your weakness these days so this study is interesting in my opinion.
