Sep. 8th, 2011 11:38 amOh my god, it's like someone has finally heard my cries and gnashing of teeth: Women Fighters in Reasonable Armor.
I am now swooning. No ridiculous high heels! No chainmail bras! No unreasonably short leather halter tops! None of the things that have made me want to find the people who do cover art for fantasy books and throw implements of destruction at them
There's even helmets and real armor (although, to be fair, I'm dubious about how much armor any human being of any gender could reasonably carry without collapsing under the weight, but still!). And boots. Boots that you could walk in without damaging the skeleto-muscular structure of your entire lower body!.
