blowing things up rather than strutting the Huge Boss runway

Hannah, David, Frank and I are looking at "so you wanna be a male model" and we read this aloud:

The good news is that a man's modeling career usually lasts longer than a woman's, and since ten-year-old boys more often dream of blowing things up rather than strutting the Hugo Boss runway, this side of the biz tends to be less competitive as well.

Frank responds out loud "why can't we have both?"
