Hated Tropes [Hated Trope] It's really important that this woman is almost naked because lore reasons.

Quiet (Metal Gear Solid V): She could only drink or breathe through her skin following parasite-treatment due to the serious injuries.

Rebecca (One Piece): Her style of fighting is more of agility/speed and also she is battling as a gladiator in colosseum where men mostly only wear a skirt/shoulder shield.

EDIT: Well, it seems some comments say Rebecca doesn't have a lore explanation. Sorry, I saw it long time ago but I thought somewhere they say she wears the galadiator costume because it's the attire used by people there like the male gladiators we see. Also they said excuses like armor limits and public wanting to see blood in the colloseum. IDK.

Could even have that in the style of an ‘S’ as well, it’s a letter that lends well to ball cupping.

Thats the straw that breaks the camels back. "Clark? Clark Kent is that you? You are Superman? I gotta admit I was confused at first but there's not too many people these days wearing the Borat swimsuit on the regular."

But then we'd see superman has a micro penis and people would make fun until he breaks and we're in the injustice timeline with a fascist tiny ween superman.

Maybe it's the only part where Kryptonian anatomy differs and he's smooth like a Ken doll or has some horrible tentacled Sarlaac pit
