comment Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female?
I wasn't attacking you, infact I see that, aside from the stereotype avoiding issues, the mechanical effects were more than I anticipated and I'm thinking the Flaw/Trait route may be the best approach. Thanks for the input btw

comment Is there an alternate rule to allow different stats for Male/Female?
I see my original thought process had a lot more negative reception than I thought. Yeah, adventures are better than the avg joe/jane but they're still people and I didn't think it would be too far fetched for the idea, but I hadn't thought through all the consequences (which is why I asked the question here)

I agree with most of what you said, & thanks for the list of examples the game has (even the Eunuch, that I almost listed to be funny but as the new person here I didn't know how well it would be received) But I also think a group of adult players should be able to play a fantasy game without having hurt feelings over gender stereotypes.

I like this and think I'll combine your answer with BESW's to get what I'm aiming for without penalizing them.

I'm familiar with the traits/flaws, they've always been optional for us, but I think the best way to handle it without negatively impacting mechanics is to make them take atleast one and then let them choose a skill bonus that makes sense to their gender that way there's no direct penalty and a (somewhat) minor buff for their customization.

@ObliviousSage, would a +1/-1 be more appropriate or still too much? Is there anyway I could implement this (preferably with adjustments for males also) or do you think I should drop it all together? (my comment above has my reasoning, is this off too?)

Thanks! Yes I meant Humanoid. I would like something more indepth that what I've listed. My reasoning is that most heroic adventures where written with males in mind even if not specifically addressed and that women aren't always as strong as SOME men but may be smarter or more "in tune" for lack of a better term.
