Female armour in RPGs

This comic strip from Dorkly tackles the thorny issue (or should that be thongy issue) of armour design for female characters in RPGs. They call it “Lady Armor” which isn’t a title I could quite… bare.

The question is; do you think this comic strip also solves the contentious issue?
