    oh I found a twitter thread about this.

    tl;dr; bad translations and lazy reporting. https://mobile.twitter.com/TheTrueTankMan/status/1357608963387183104

    1. A rep was making a suggestion

    2. Calling it masculine is a poor translation of a term that really just means tougher/gritty/strong.
