If Female Super Heroes/Villains Existed Would They Dress Like This?

I didn't know Psylocke was this buff.

She should get drawn like this more often.

"Some".

I wonder what kind it would take.

Most females who are meant to be action-oriented and not super-power based should be IMO. Espescially if they don;t have powers.

They don't have to all be like Big Barda. Just looking as though they have somewhat muscular, athletic bodies.

Yes, bitches that hot like to show skin, they literally need to, have you seen red carpet whores? Superheroines would be like that.

They would dress as showy and sexy as possible. They have invincible, perfect 10/10 bodies. Why would they dress conservatively at all?

If you're so low on the power level chart that clothing can possibly be a hindrance at all to you then you might as well stop being a superheroine.

If the guys that go out are any indication, it'd be some kind of cross between tacticool and embarrassing.

They would dress like women going to the gym, so everything tight on them.

They don't have superpowers though, not even the "not-superpower" of being able to physically overpower a room full of goons with guns that Batman and other "normals" have.

Watchmen explained it pretty well. That the costume is mostly about fulfilling a personal pseudo-sexual fetish, and/or marketing. Both of those cases lend themselves to skimpy outfits.

I remember a few years back, professional women's indoor volleyball was talking about changing the uniforms to look more like WMBA outfits (i.e. loose long shorts instead of tight short shorts). The female players and tam owners hated it, cause they knew that they'd lose sponsorship and ticket sales.

I imagine that heroines and villains would prefer volleyball, track, or gymnastics style uniforms; rather than basketball style uniforms. Especially since wearing a mask and/or having a secret identity takes away a lot of the fear associated with partial-exhibitionism.

As little as possible, both men and women.

Look at the Greek heroes. They're usually totally nude or close to it. That's because it projects confidence and assurance that their body is supreme. Too much armor and clothing says "Please don't hit me."

I believe that high level heroes who don't care about practicality would look like this

This. When you can walk on the sun you can dress however you please.

Why wouldnt fem villains be sluts?

I hate this whole “realism” discourse because super heroes are not real and never will be. They wear whatever the author wants them to wear.

the same could be said for men. youtube.com/watch?v=mLnhOl_AUGE

I would?

Fantasy is dead. No longer do we have a celebration of powerful and larger than life heroes and heroines. Fantasy used to be what we dreamed we where but now every thin skinned cry baby thinks everyone should conform to them and that relatabiliy means everything is just like who they are. Boring and uninspiring.

Fatty.

A sane person without superhuman durability/invulnerability wouldn't wear something like that. You would have to be insane like mutants or a Batperson to wear without superhuman durability/invulnerability.

It's not one style fits all. That's the problem I have with how most people (especially here) treat it. Psylocke isn't invulnerable. She should at least be wearing more Magic cloth armor. She hulk can wear titty tassles if she wanted but she doesn't seem the type.

Anyone would love to show attention, whether it be body parts, or even men with strength.

Fuck what the SJW minority tells you. They could dress sexy if they could, but use their loudness to cope.

i always though if superheroes really existed they would dress either as cops or as sports people,that said i love classic flashy superhero wear like OP

No she should be wearing what ever makes the story exciting. The only reason it stands out is because retards like you go "HUR DURR NOT REALISTIC." It's not supposed to be realistic. She's a pretend ninja with laser swords that come out of her hands. The same reason they get fucking mutilated when they go into battle is the same reason every other TVshow or piece of fiction doesn't. Because it's not that kind of edgy twat story.

She has telekinetic shields that block bullets and such. She doesn't need body armor. In fact it would be a hindrance.

Depends on what their super powers were, but probably either like Phoenix Jones, like a Riot Cop, or if they were bullet proof maybe something more like a motorcycle outfit which is the closest thing to a traditional superhero costume you can wear in real life without looking like a complete geed. Something like the MCU Ant-Man/Wasp outfit is probably the closet thing to a "real life" superhero outfit a real person could wear while being taken at all seriously.

If you have the right charisma and can back it up with super powers you can get away with dressing like a pro wrestler. Basically boots and a speedo.

They'd look like professional wrestlers.

I'd think if they really existed they'd had a myriad of powers and personalities that wouldn't lend to their costume design. Remember when Kitty designed her costume. That was ridiculous, but it made sense a kid would do that.

I didn't say anything about realism. "Exciting" is relative. Some people can be entertained without being aroused.

They literally have in universe armor made of spandex. As I brought up.

And professional wrestler can get very sexy.

Why are they so ugly?

I imagine it would depend on how rich and dedicated you are. Probably a lot of street clothes for those who wish to remain truly anonymous, maybe a cool costume for people who want to become a symbol or notorious.

There are some good mostly-practical women's wrestling outfits

I like how people will pull the fantasy/fiction card to justify raceswapping a character, but will then pull the realism card to justify not making female characters look sexy.

>Some people can be entertained without being aroused.
And those people can go read a different comic if they don't like the one they're looking at.

But I feel like this is the most "likely" one a real superheroine would wear. It's a workout outfit with some shit glued to it to make it a costume.

If I wanted to jerk off to a comic I'd read hentai.

I've never gotten a boner reading a fucking Harley Quinn comic, and I doubt I ever will. Superheroines in stripper outfits isn't arousing, or exciting, it's just kind of dumb-looking. Especially since it's so often out of tone with the rest of the book. It's one thing for a superhero to dress ridiculous in Empowered since that ENF Fetish: The Book, or for a sexy silly outfit in a sexy silly adventure (like a lot of Amanda Conner-drawn Power Girl books), but comics are full of grim, gritty super-serious action stories that still have those kinds of costumes and it's frankly just dumb-looking.

Why does Lady Gaga have two stands?

I feel that when the ladies are dressed up like strippers they don't get to do anything cool within the plotline or story. They're mostly just there for eye-candy even if they are supposed to be super powerful. Take Dark Phoenix for example, she's clothed and gets to eat suns, but if she was wearing some weird two-piece stripper costume the writers would have her get defeated pretty easily. Not because they're sexist but because subconsciously they aren't able to take the threat of the female seriously when she looks like a bangdoll.

If they wrote these thinly dress badass women the same way they wrote powerhouses like Brainiac, Superman, Darkseid, or hell even the Punisher then yeah I'd be all down for it. But that just doesn't happen when the lady looks like a hooker on Broadway. You gotta remember just because she's drawn a certain way you still have to convey how dangerous they are, which is difficult when the most powerful person in the room is in a thong.

>dumb looking
Tell that to rock stars, wrestlers, gymnasts, magicians, anyone that makes a living on selling their physical skills with a glance.

Dumbass.

Hercules fought in nothing but a lion's pelt.

Gods and heroes of the classical world were commonly depicted nude. Men and women.

It's bitch-basic visual language 101. If your thing is that you're capable of physically dominating shit then you express your physicality. Strong and influential people look sexy and fit. Athena wasn't a chest-let and Zeus wasn't a manlet.

Women don't fuck men that complain that Wonder Woman is too sexy.

The erotic is often used to create a larger than life tone because of the association eroticism has with violence and power.

What the fuck are you talking about? There are plenty of powerhouse females that wear less than Dark Phoenix. Fucking casual.

why would anyone wear a costume to do crime fighting irl? I know there's one black dude that really did that but come on he was into capeshit before he started his thing. Pretty sure if any normal person got superpowers and decide to use it for either superhero stuff or villainy, they'll just wear normal clothes, either man or woman.

Self promotion and to project a certain image like how Superman and Captain Marvel project security and that things are going to be okay and Batman projects that you're about to be mugged by a winged freak.

1, 4, 5 & 6 do.
Honestly it's more the pose then the outfit that does it.

When you're going to be picking up buildings you're going to want to look cool doing it.

If superheroes existed the men would do all the work while the females would just dress like sluts for attention just like with normal people.

Like who? Like what female character can take on Darkseid, Brainiac, Galactus? I'm blanking at what thinly dressed female character is up there with Superman, Silver Surfer...etc. I mean Maybe Wonder Woman, but then again she can be killed by a common everyday kitchen knife because it's pointy. Maybe Storm, but she's also killable by bullets.

Super powerful females don't exist in any kind of high number. The only one I can think of at the moment is Hela. Oh and Zealot though she's just street level she's supposed to be the end all if she's fighting someone within her power level.

Someone on another thread typed that Spider-Gwen's costume is a kind of lingerie.

Can someone explain why?

I wonder... do the characters themselves get aroused from it? The ones wearing them.

Because that someone has never been to a ballet, and likely is an uncultured sob.

It might be because of how skintight her costume is at certain places. Ballet dancers also show off much of their legs (Up to thighs), and shoulders. They're revealing, but not completely depending on the outfit.

I mean maybe that's why.

Men in ballet also wear the same tights and it's pretty plain to see which wear the cup or not if you're close enough to stage.

Sheet is pretty gender neutral and designed to provide comfort of movement and sleekness of contour.

Any hero that has to deal with significant air resistance, Spider-Gwens approaches reasonable and logical.

Of course, you'd resort to cake.

Many women like showing their bodies off user. I's even necessarily a sexual thing, they just feel sexy and want to flaunt what they got. I don't even think it would be all that uncommon. They might not wear halter tops, thongs, bikinis, stockings, etc, but if practical I could totally see them wearing one-pieces, booty shorts, sports bras, yoga pants, etc. Less overtly sexual, just revealing yet utilitarian

It's also because it was fucking difficult to paint the armour and its autistic details in a jar or work them in on the marble compared to cloth which you could even simulate the effect of the wind on it or depth of the robes. Nobody in ancient Greece believe Perseus for example wore some bathrobs, Hermes' sandals and fucked off to slay Medusa. He was decked out properly with the best armour in Greece. Heroes like Ajax and Hercules wearing lose clothes and even then Herc later fixed the problem by making armour out of the Lion of Nemea(not its hide, THE ENTIRE FUCKING LION) was due to their imposing size. To give an example that easily identifiable, looke at Dynasty Warriors : almost all the heroes are of good physical build, dressed properly and look nice. Then comes along fucking Lu Bu and makes everyone look like a manlet because he's a giant. Same thing with Herc and Ajax. Even Achilles who was invincible(except for his heel) was decked out in an amost pimped out armour to an extend that if someone would penetrate Hephestus armour, their weapon would be ineffective against his iron skin. The reason his heel wasn't protected was because back then,there wasn't an effective way to make battle shoes without being somewhat like sandals, just like how ancient greeks wore a codepiece, some sort of protection like Supes' underwear and masked it over with a leather skirt of some kind.

If people with superpowers existed and wanted to use these superpowers to fulfil a certain goal, they would likely be part of the police force/military or be a part of some private force.
They would wear whatever the uniform is for their group, except tailored to fit whichever powers they have if these powers require it.

In the case of Elektra? Almost certainly.

They would dress like the average teleworker?

Lots of heroes wearing gym shorts and wife beaters with a ski mask.

Your s-oy diversion aside that's clearly not the argument he's making.

In Empowered, yes. It is mentioned how it works.

full body suit without the sash looks like a henchman. the sash looks tacked on to the full body suit in #2. bottom middle tow look the most heroic.

actually, a common complaint about spandex s that it gets stiflingly hot.

true, it would be pretty difficult / distracting to move around with your tits flopping around every which way

you can definitely recognize a person by their body, so if anonymity is the goal, somethibng that distorts the proportions would be preferable. i'm thinking some kind of armor with a cooling system, breastplate, stilts / extended limbs and a totally enclosed helmet like in bubblegum crash could do it.

speaking of which, it is proving surprisingly difficult to find scans of adam warren's bubblegum crash and dirty pair series, which show the contrast between the two types of hero wear. in the former, you have totally enclosed bodies in 'hard suit' power armor, and in the latter the agents might as well be walking around in lingerie.

I like how people will pull the fantasy/fiction card to justify making female characters look sexy, but will then pull the realism card to justify not raceswapping a character.

Really? What's the realisim angle they usually use?

I don't see the link here.

You have Wonder Woman. People don't want her to get a boob job because she's been hot since the 40's. People also don't want her to be black because she's been white sense the 40's.

Ok then. Being reality supers start out skimpy like in the comics to reflect their idols. However being as people aren't retards and most capes suck at hiding their identity, they're quickly found out. Bad guys start teaming up to beat the shit out of heroes or outright kill the heroes and their families. Other heroes just embarrass themselves for their costume choice or get mocked on social media. This causes capes to respond by dressing more sensible or give up after governments get involved.

You basically get the incrediables affect.

If people developed super powers, I think most of them would try to just use them professionally and not even play hero.
If you're strong you can lift heavy machinery into spaces where cranes or forklifts get tricky.
Telepaths can work as translators or do interrogations. Jean could make mad dosh in gay conversion...
So they would dress for the job.
Rather than masked vigilantes, you'd probably see bullet-proof cops.

How would dressing more sensibly obscure their identity more than going full rockstar?

Either they

1. Don't have a secret ID
2. Do the Clark Kent thing where they put effort into making their normie ID the disguise.
3. Go full Lon Chaney
