Regarding the ladies, I think it's also worth noting that he is the sort of person who really likes talking to women, where ~women~ is defined by 'the companionship of ladies who are a lot more feminine than Aesir warriors are wont to be' across the 3 ~categories~. He likes the way women tend to smell better, allow themselves to be small or sharp with him, feel and act upon concern, flirt with him even if they aren't going to end up in bed, think about things sometimes in terms other than 'kill it.' In a sense stereotypes are at play here too, but in part also he enjoys having a thing beyond bromance. Volstagg has his books, Hogun has his carving, Fandral is a social butterfly!
