And even then there are significant limitations as to how much muscle you can actually put on.
Every time I hear a woman tell me that she doesn't want to lift weights because she's afraid it will bulk her up it drives me crazy. Unless you are really trying (eating a shit ton), you're not going to bulk up.

Agree on all fronts. There's a woman at my gym who does two classes a day and Olympic lifting at least once a week. She's definitely not overly muscular. She's just hot.
