Yeah, I was definitely confused about that. I think maybe I still am. Part of the confusion is probably that literally none of this has anything to do with being maternal or paternal. So, what social score would you recommend for a character that is a submissive businessman?
you are right, i need to find a better term for Paternal and Maternal.
And Submissive/Dominate doesn't apply much either. open to suggestions!
The idea with the Social is about hierarchy. Dominate and Submissive play a role, but its more than that. Maybe using Socially Dominate and Socially Submissive may be the right way to go, but even that doesnt cover the full array. After all, you can have a successful businessman who tends to be submissive in relationships
This is why there will be a skill based system added in as well, to help cover that.
To answer your question , id put a submissive businessman at near 50 Social. That allows them to be dominating in the boardroom, submissive in the bedroom.
Identity would depend on how the character sees themselves internally. Everyone has a mix of masculine and feminine mental traits. score of 0 would be a person who is so mentally male they cant even fathom anything else. Same with 100 being so mentally female. Those extremes I see as being more in the "Toxic" territory. I am not going to disallow such numbers, but there may be in game issues with having toxic masculinity or toxic femininity. For your businessman, maybe somewhere between 25-40 if they identify as male, depending on how comfortable you think they would be if they were suddenly female as an example. 50 would be someone who would be comfortable as either gender. Again, in game to remove the idea of binary labels, it goes between Apollonian and Aphrotitian
Physical? I would probably put around a 30. A 0 physical would be your professional weight lifters (both male and female)
