In the real world, while Maggie can lift far, far more than I can

But she will never be able to lift as much as Leisha

On the other hand I honestly don't care if someone is playing a female barbarian with a 20 strength in my campaign. D&D is a fantasy game that can play into wish fulfillment.


EDIT: sorry, didn't see the red text. :blush:
 

in realism how do we measure elf, goloiath or halfing str scores?
By looking at the descriptions of their races. Elves have inherent nimbleness that would include a inherent dex stat bonus. Goliaths are big and strong, and should have strength and probably con bonuses, though those don't necessarily go together. The strength is for sure, though. Halflings would probably have a strength penalty, but 5e aside from the orc exception, doesn't do that for PC races. I don't mind the loss of the stat penalties. Those did discourage certain race/class combos, unlike stat bonuses. The halfling description also includes reason for a dex bonus.
 


My apologies if anything I wrote offended anyone. If you want to continue this discussion in a private format, please PM me. Otherwise, enjoy your game! (I'll be playing tomorrow and I have SO been looking forward to it!)
 

No. It's proven fact that the average man is stronger than the average woman, and that the strongest man is significantly stronger than the strongest woman.
and none of that matters when compairing any 2 members... not at all.

It's like saying "The avergae RPG player makes $75,000 a year" that doesn't help someone that make $20,000 a year.
There is no opinion or twisting involved.
the twist is that averages matter
Just like it's proven fact that women have greater endurance(constitution) than men do.
only on average...and averages tell you nothing about indviduals
Are you going to argue next that it's my opinion twisting some fact that a female black widow spider is a lot larger than a male black widow spider?
since I have no idea about spider facts nor do I care no... but I will argue that it is meaningless for D&D
