But a lot of fantasy isn't about "normal people?" And when it is, it's often about Everyman, or the Chosen One who must be trained to their full potential and has never even picked up a sword before their village burned down. So, like, Frodo and Luke Skywalker. Neither of them had to be white, male, or have bulgy sacks o' muscles for their stories to make sense. I've never actually read or seen a fantasy setting where "pretty much all women are stronger than pretty much every guy" is a thing. I have seen "whites didn't end up with all the power and are mostly equal or subserviant to POC," but that's just alternate history with maybe some magic thrown in.
