(this is just a joke - of course farmwork still has physically demanding parts)
Your fake farmer toughness wouldn’t last a day working in an artificially-lit, soul sucking office cubicle for someone else’s profit!
Ha! Gotcha farmers!
Now if you’ll excuse me I need to cry.
The difference between physical damage and psychic damage.

Day on a farm:
She looks very happy!
only semi related but ive been gifted with soft skin, the kind that old men would handshake and say “you never worked a real day in your life!” i work a blue collar job. some people are just gifted.
Lol or you know how to use lotion?
Older gen hated sunscreen and lotion.
I don’t use lotion and still have very soft skin. I also work in a print shop with plenty of heavy lifting and manual labour.
Ha ha ha, farming was hard work, like we have no idea, back in the pioneer days. Now? You can’t compete without the industrial operations, unless you have a niche.
These pioneers, they were harder than any of these gym freaks, they weren’t swollen, they were scrawny, wiry, and stronger. Muscle mass doesn’t mean strength necessarily.
Is it true that farming isn’t physically demanding anymore? I figured it’s easier now physically, but you’ll still develop strength from the things that can’t be done with machinery.
My impression is that it is definitely not as demanding as when you were plowing feilds with a team of oxen… but it is still physicall demanding. Sure, machinaty automates a lot, but that just means you are more productive and end up doing more of the labor the machine doesn’t automate. Also from what I’ve heard, a lot of the work of modern farming is fixing and maintaining the machines that do the heavy lifting - which is also fairly taxing physical labor.
Depending on the type of farming, the thing that can’t be done by machinery can get ridiculously small. To my knowledge, to grow cereal for example, intensive and repetitive efforts are not needed if you have access to machines. You still have to be physically capable but i wouldnt say it’s physically demanding.
He’s not wrong. Those muscles will atrophy in no time.

Your fake “work from dawn till dusk” work ethic wouldn’t last you 5 minutes in an office.
5 minutes at the office:
