That is kinda the elephant in the room that this series asks us to ignore. The changes appear to be purely social and cultural, not biological.Honestly, how does this work in this context? By all indications I can see, men and women aren't physically any different from normal. So on average he should still be bigger and stronger than them. And that never gives anyone any reason for pause?
Or do men having the typically "feminine" interests also mean that they're generally less physically capable and that women on average are stronger? But nothing so far seems to suggest that...
While this will have some effect, particularly in a typical animanga "hyperfocus on beauty and weight" culture that often sees one gender eschewing physical activity to actively avoid adding muscle mass and risk of injury, it's not going to adjust the foundations. All other things being equal, men should tend to be taller and have more muscle mass.
Though one may suspect that gender-segregated sports in this setting exist to keep men from beating women in sports rather than to keep women from beating men in sports. (Yes, that's actually why gender segregation in sports started.)
