This mod balances the attributes of male and female characters so that both
genders for a particular race have the same starting attributes. This makes
the choice of gender a purely aesthetic one. Now you can have Redguard women
clobbering things with maces and Argonian men hurling spells without taking
a hit to your primary attributes.

By default, each gender has a total of 320 starting attribute points, but
the points were distributed differently for males and females. I shifted
points around so that each gender is identical.

For example, consider the different starting attributes for Nord males and
females:

Male Willpower:30
Female Willpower: 40
Male Endurance:50
Female Endurance: 40

This mod changes these values to:

Male Willpower:35 (+5)
Female Willpower: 35 (-5)
Male Endurance:45 (-5)
Female Endurance: 45 (+5)

Thus both genders become equal in gameplay terms, and both retain the Oblivion
default of 320 starting attribute points.
