Ok so I did a few mins of digging, found a few “Galadriel was a warrior, BIGOT” articles
Here’s the apparent proof: “Account of Galadriel’s quarrel with the sons of Fëanor at sack of Alqualondë. How she fought...”
““she... fought heroically”
My grandpa fought in WW2 but I don’t recall him telling me he specifically shot anyone. Sometimes fought is used in a more broad sense or using some other tactic than direct physical violence
But there’s also passages that she’s “strong in body and mind” and “athletic”. So while also kinda vague and not mentioning how that compares to the physical strength of male elves I’ll assume her magic and high level makes her a strong elite athlete. I’m cool with that. This is also a fantasy world and while it’s not explicitly said here, in DND for example dark elf females are physically bigger and stronger than males in that world
