As a bassist playing .045-.105 (and .130s on my five string) I think you're all wimps.
As for my guitar playing, I started using heavier strings so I'd break them less often, I now use them because I like the tone better. I don't have problems switching to lighter strung guitars in guitar shops or whatever; you get used to swapping back and forth if you do it enough. It's important that you practice on both though. Heavier strings to build strength and speed, lighter so you aren't out of control when you play it live.
