Men, what characteristics generally attract you to women?

[Vuk]

I am beyond skeptical of your observed trend. A few anecdotes do not data make.

I don't think being physically strong has any correlation whatsoever with good character. Nor do I think hard work is just of the physical variety.

Heck, look at all the ********** who work out all the time and look good but are complete *********.

I don't think simple hard labor really tests someone's character.

Also - why haven't you asked out the woman mentioned in the OP?

Work, not working out. They are very different things.
I did not ask her out because at that time I was seeing someone, and she has a boyfriend. :P

once again since you ignored it last time your idea is false.

I Do not see many ditchdiggers walking around brimming with confidence and that is certainly work.

Bah, same thing. There are plenty of people who do manual labor in their jobs and are not good people. In fact, so many as to say there's no difference in character between those who fill your definition of "work" versus everyone else.
