What is the biological reason that women/female bodybuilders look (facially) like men??

I'm just curious to know what physiological change takes place in female bodybuilders that makes them look like men in the face. Is this caused by steroids? It seems that their bone structures even change though. What would cause a woman to desire to even BE a bodybuilder?!! Lots of questions, sorry. Just curious about what other people think.

    they took male harmons. because female body is not meant for body building. females dont have any musles like male have. so they take male harmon to have those type of musles

    depend is there chewing on male hormone pills if so then it is possible for a woman to develop male like characteristics, but it is also possible that the woman may have lost a lot of fatty body weight to show off muscle tone, as in body-building that is the main object of it. structurally males and females are not that different and are only different in build and height by the governing hormones that are present ie male hormones will cause a long length to the body and a more muscular body and female hormones make the body in the woman shorter and more fatty skin. and that is really about it, all the stuff about women having smooth skin and live longer in many aspects its really hormone related.

    When you lift weights like they do, you tense your face up to lift that heavy barbell. Therefore your face muscles are getting bigger. Their faces are just more muscular. Some woman even take testosterone shots. I'm not sure that's legal though. Lots of people have interests in different things. Some people wonder, like myself, why anyone would want to be in a beauty pageant. I think they're ridiculous! So, to each, their own!

    It's the testosterone (a male hormone) kicking in...this why they sometimes even have low, manly sounding voices along with the masculine looks
