One of them is for those persons able to endure the cold climate. They are generally seen as braves; but…what about those able to endure the hot temperatures? I’ve never heard they deserve the same admiration.
But the point is essentially about ‘macho vs. feminine’ behavior. I’ve noticed the machismo is seen as a quality. Even for women. A woman who has a male behavior is frequently seen as brave and many times even admired. All the opposite for the feminine behavior for a guy.
I wonder if this unbalance is something rather local or if it is something that happens in every culture.
