So, recently when we pointed out a Dead or Alive/Samurai Warriors crossover, there was some expression that somehow it Dead or Alive’s fault… as though Koei Tecmo never stooped to this kind of thing on their own.
Not in Samurai Warriors, not in Dynasty Warriors…and most certainly not the last time they teamed up with Team Ninja to help Nintendo create Hyrule Warriors.
Above all, this is certainly not a problem spread throughout video games.
Not at all.

“Legends” Football League
Glitchy submitted:
First of all, this is real. The “Legends (formerly “Lingerie”) Football League” is an actual all women football league. Sadly, these are the uniforms.
I understand there is a lot of turnover due to injury. Can’t imagine why. </sarcasm>
Anyhoo.. I decided to Bingo it.
I wasn’t sure how to call a few of them. The “No underwear” call was because it IS basically underwear. The sock things are thigh high, but do they count as boots? Considering there is a New England team and (I think) a Canadian branch, cold climate got a tick. As for “More metal used on boots/gauntlets…” do shoulderpads count in this category? There’s probably more material there than on the main body.
Lingerie Football would qualify for some allowance for being sex work, if they paid the players (and paid them appropriate to the work and the risks) and ensured their safety. Instead it’s really just unsafe exploitation with a pay-per-view TV deal.
It’s horrifying that we live in a society where this is “the” high profile women’s football and that it’s continuing on even after we had a major motion picture released about the discovery that football is actually even more dangerous than it looks.
Outdoor contact sports are definitely a situation where even a light amount of protection can go a long way and frankly if you want to see women in lingerie there are safer and better ways to do it, rather than pretend it is in some way related to love of a sport and hence not about ogling.

Speaking of “find a difference” pics… Wow, with the similarity of features between those two, the double standard of costumes is self-demonstrating!
How would we know the androgynous character on the right is a man? Far less randomly uncovered skin, of course! After all, aren’t boob and belly holes in fabric inherently feminine? Huh?
Mind you, there is a demographic who are so connected to the idea that tight clothes with strategic displays of skin
signals ‘sexy woman’ that they got terribly confused by Wal’s original outfit.
Surprising no-one, the double standard in Fiesta Online’s design is pretty consistent (and boring):

THAT’S NOT HOW YOU BREATHE
Big thanks to all the readers who sent this our way…
Wow, not only is that some bingo-worthy “armor”, her lungs also merged with her breasts!
@boobsdontworkthatway, did you see it?
Sadly, that’s not the first time we see an ad with inflatable fantasy lady boobs. They probably took a marketing queue from League of Angels… WHY?
Seems like Proficient City (self-proclaimed “forerunner in overseas (North American Market) video game distribution”) is so proud of their generic and awfully marketed games that they put their name on every logo possible. Well, that sure makes it easier for us to know what games to avoid.
