What is strong silent type?

A man of few words. Someone who is quiet, observant, loyal, and loves fiercely. Takashi "Mori" Morinozuka of the Ouran Host Club is one such man. Extremely good looking and caring, but not prone to conversation. If he shows emotion, you know something is wrong. The strong and silent type is... well, just that. Strong and silent.

Girl 1: Yeah, he's a true strong and silent type.
