Adonis doesn't mean burly man, it just means beautiful, as far as males go (especially in the ancient greek sense, which did have a fondness for androgynes, they even had hermaphrodite as a minor god, considered beautiful by their standards).

Just happens that people like my appearance.

Now go lick my shoes clean, you peon!

Actually, look at Greek statues of ideal males. They aren't andros, they are big and muscular and very much male looking, with long or short hair depending on who's talking. Spartans were all about the long hair (they actually did their hair before battle), which Athenian men wore shorter hair. But in all cases, ideal men are, in fact, extremely built, athletic, and male.
