How much can an average woman lift and carry?

not weight lift, but lift in general (boxes, furniture, people, etc)

for example a 5'4" women who weights 120 pounds.

when I try looking it up, i just see 'dead lift' weights

Update:

Once again, this is Yahoo Opinions and Guesses, not Answers.

    I've been in dance. If you know what you're doing, I've been tossed around by skinny 4ft10 girls. I've seen honkin' mama's do work that makes most guys look weak.

    If your thinking of the basic b----, Starbucks, cellphone, and dumb boyfreind, I think she can generally carry about as much as a male of the same stature. Where that test fails in the real world is many of the stereotypical young ladies I roasted don't know how to use their body in terms of manipulating items. The dudes all wrestled and helped granny clean the garage. They kick eachother and climb tress if left unattended too long. It is science fact that girls mostly sit and chat. Its how we are made. That said, any guy can learn to chat better and any girl can take a sport and learn how to lift a box.

    I'd guess 75-100lbs.

    They seem capable at least of carrying some men.
