Nope; I remember telling Stout how much I liked "Crowbar" at a Westercon I

attended in the early 1970s.  Schwarzenegger was still chiefly known among

the bodybuilding community at the time, and wasn't identified with Conan 
until the 1982 movie.

By the way, that's "Girly-men," from the SNL characters "Hans und Franz."
