[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 6207185, member: 4937"] Suppose instead of a character burner/builder, the source book has a demographics generator (handily included also as a program on an accompanying CD) that lets a DM quickly generate villages, towns, and provinces in rich detail. And this particular generator is trying to model exactly what you've here asserted - that men are on average stronger than women - such that for a village or town the average strength of the men is a point or two higher than the average strength of the women. And further, the maximum strength possible for an NPC in the demographic generator is a point or two higher for male characters than female characters, so that the strongest NPC's in a 'world' will be overwhelmingly male. Is this game also sexist? [/QUOTE]
