[MALE-PRIDE] I want to be this guy
This video says it all. As a matter of historical record, Gygax was a fan of STR, and tried to model it well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpUrXJNcS_8

Today I learned that Larian offered Early Access where just the body weights of males and females were properly differentiated. I was told that there was an outcry of "sexism" from the players.

I want to understand who? what? is the source of the demand to play a physically dominant female? I'm serious here. Is this because a majority of BG3 players are females who want that. Or is it just the Lara Croft crowd male players who want to see female curves everywhere?

Why is my gender being slighted?

I'm going to regret engaging on this one, but... How are they not "properly differentiated" now....?

Physically dominant males and/or those who'd like to be. Does this really need an explanation?

95% of games on the market make "strong" hetero males their centerpieces.

This one did not, and suddenly your entire gender is being "slighted?"

As a hetero dude, I gotta say that's some straight-up snowflake nonsense, bruh. "B-bu-but I deserve to be the center of ALL games, not just the vast majority of them!"

Really? 95% ... well not according to the ads I see online and on my phone. All I see are underwear models fighting male orcs 3x their size. Don't get me wrong, I luv underwear models. I just don't want to play one on TV.

Cite me a single legit 3D RPG title where the males are modeled strong then the females.

You mean the thread of you whining about how a male and female character who both engage in a physically demanding profession weigh approximately the same? Because apparently you believe the myth that women can't develop muscles or something?

I want a representation of "ME" inside an RPG world. I luv undwear models, they're cuvy and cute and desirable. I just don't want to play one in a game.

I've seen my own a** all my life. Exactly why would have an issue seeing my own a** in a video game?

How do I visit Withers and hire the guy in the video?

They certainly can. But statistically the males get the nod from nature here, not the females. That is a scientific fact.

In a fantasy game, players should get to be the character they want to be.
