But why is this so? An inherent psychiological difference or merely the fact that men are more socially pressured to be ripped than woman, who are supposed to be thin and fragile?
It's all the biology m8y

If you've got more testosterone, you'll get more ripped.

Fuuuuuuck this cold. Made the mistake of going into work today, because my cold seemed to have let off. Nope. Had to wear a respirator with a runny nose. NOT FUN. Not fun at allllll. That coupled with equipment failure, and some pranks by co-workers, I was about ready to hurt someone. I know the pranks weren't meant to piss me off, and they usually wouldn't but the runny nose + respirator combo really soured my mood.

You'd think the plague was going around my part of the country. I was out a week with flu symptoms in January. Laid my whole office low, people all over town. Then at the end of March I caught another nasty head cold. Was completely congested while flying south and working a 13 hour day, then flying again. Immediately upon coming back, my coworker on the trip comes down with the same thing, only worse. It's been wrecking him for almost 2 weeks now and he's only begun to start sounding like himself.

Also, why this is so is because of that which modifies are body: hormones are one of them.
Ghh. These transgender jokes. Very bad taste. ::)

I think my body is getting used to these anti-depressants.
I feel like punching a damn wall down right now.

At least I go back to the psychologist tomorrow, so hopefully they can help.

What is muscle tissue? It's a mass of muscle fibers. Really, getting that semantic is only important if you're talking about Kenyans and the Olympics. Otherwise, bigger is bloody well better. Other than genetics, testosterone is the biggest factor concerning how much muscle is gained in exercise. It's what makes it so that when men and women do squats, it has different effects on the body. Competitive female bodybuilders have to take male hormones to be able to compete with their titan-like peers born with testosterone levels to rival Norse gods playing death metal on an erupting volcano in space. Because it's all biology. This is why I find it hilarious that people can say social pressures have any way in deciding the upper limits of what people can achieve by lifting.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

It turned out, in this universe, that magic didn't exist. All my guy did was dance around and scare people (since everyone believed in it).

I should have chosen the tank.
No, no. You have a wonderful opportunity, here. You have a character so capable of convincing others magic exist, that they actually believe it.

You have a duty, now. All the point-equivalents into the diplomacy equivalent. You shall become the diplomage. The person so insanely skilled at deception that when they fake throwing a fireball at people, the people actually spontaneously combust. Able to tell people you just cast levitation upon them, and cause them to float. Able to speak to reality, "I have teleported." and have reality accept it as truth.

What's the DC on convincing the laws of physics they don't exist?

My knowledge on the matter is that a DC75 used for performance used to get you noticed by errant major deities.

So if we just move the skill to persuasion, you'd probably be looking at a DC of anywhere between 50 and 100 (Gods are slightly cooler than physics, but they're also fickle beasts (while physics is not) which makes up for the distribution.  At this point it's up to the DM to choose what he wants to let you roll to convince physics to warp itself to your will).

That would fall under sneak, or the stealth equivalent. Hrmmm. I dunno.
