It was the same with orcs and tauren in WoW - very few people played them and yet many of those that did seemed to think that 'dey da best lol xD so much biger an strong den every1 else lol xDDDD'. Masculinity is also not linked directly to size, especially when excessive proportions are concerned.
While I agree we should widen what is considered "masculine," I don't know how productive it is to come on a roe appreciation thread and tell us our men look ridiculous.
