Viera males should be smaller like Au Ra females

[Sokutaban]

This sounds at odds with the lore around male viera. Something as small and dainty as a female au ra, but it supposedly to be survival-hardened specialists that are just as tough, or tougher, as their taller statured females? At least the Lalafell as known to be cunning and a knack for the arcane. Push comes to shove, I don't think in the reality of the world in the game, a lalafell would not have the same physical prowess as some of the larger races on their own.

I agree that it is a possibility that male Viera could exist in this manner, however, considering that the females seem to take on a provider/protector role, it could be the case that the males simply did not need to develop in such a manner. A role reversal of our human ancestors. Naturally this may have required the males to take on a role that would include tending to their young and such, leaving it as a less likely, although not impossible possibility (since I'm not sure how long Viera live and how often they have kids).
