I heard that girls tend to be physically stronger than boys before puberty, is that true?

I doubt stronger. I think the difference is not very noticeable prior to puberty, but boys are still mostly stronger.

One problem is that with boys, we did activities to test strength (ex: arm-wrestling), but girls never took an interest in this. So it is hard to tell

Now, that's wrong. They do tend to hit puberty a couple of years sooner, hence that period in late elementary or early middle school where many girls are taller than many boys, but that soon ends as well.

No, before puberty physical strength for both boys and girls is essentially the same.

nope, its similar to the same before puberty.

Some of them are stronger than men long after they've passed the age of adolescence... and I've had relationships with a few of them.

Nope i saw a boy wrestling a girl as a child in kindergarten and she was left crying. Boys r strong even before puberty
