1 сильный пол
Мужчины не позволяли дамам утруждать себя излишними движениями и, как сильный пол, несли мужественно всю тяжесть накладыванья дамам и себе кушаний и наливания напитков. (Л. Толстой, Воскресение) — The men would not let the ladies take the trouble of moving, and, as befitted the stronger sex, they manfully took on themselves the burden of putting the food on the ladies' plates and of filling their glasses.
