It may work in animes, but I don't really see the point of a bullet-proof corset if it doesn't protect the upper part of the wearer's torso.624 said:It seems to work in the animes.

A soldier approaches with sword drawn. You draw your sword.
A soldier approaches with sword drawn while wearing pink hot pants and a pair of rainbow suspenders. By the time you stop laughing you are dead.
A female warrior approaches with sword drawn. You draw your sword.
A female warrior approaches with sword drawn wearing a chainmail bikini. You draw your sword. If you catch my drift.
Goth kids, I miss when they where the outcast/subculture. Silly emo-kiddies. I can't even go see a band in Seattle now unless it is a 21 and up show, emo-kiddies have no idea what is good music or not and spend all their time and their parents money going to every friggen show, no matter who is playing. I tried going to see a couple of punk bands, obvious, old school punk bands. Got damn near chased out by emo-kiddies 2/3rds my age. Thank god deity of choice the giant cancer causing burning ball of death in the sky they had a bar I could retreat to.624 said:It's not made for combat. Its just a look, they were made for civilian not military use. Like goth kids and shiny red combat boots.InProgress said:It may work in animes, but I don't really see the point of a bullet-proof corset if it doesn't protect the upper part of the wearer's torso.624 said:It seems to work in the animes.
Remember, Russian military is the new black this year, so be prepared to see a whole lot more of this coming.twistedshadows said:That's...interesting. Though I've worn corsets, I don't think I'd have ever wanted to wear that.
It seems like the extra pockets and such would just get in the way and impede movement, instead of making things easier.
The whole point of it just seems to be in exuding "cuteness," and a non-tactical corset does that just fine.
...Nerf mace?WanderFreak said:I'd hit it.
With a mace of some sort.

Wouldn't that make your pants fit oddly? Or would you just forgo pants while sporting such an item?624 said:I'd take a codpiece with a magazine/condom pouch.
Wikipedia to the rescue [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metal_Gear_Solid_3:_Snake_Eater_characters#The_Boss] >swytchblayd said:(by the way, that reminds me of a question I've wanted an answer to for a long time... just how old is The Boss/The Joy from MGS3I mean, she'd have to at least be in her mid-40's to have participated in WWII, abd her hair makes her look late-fifties, early-to-mid-sixty-ish... but that rack just... gah!~ x-x half the time while I was fighting her at first, I kept getting distracted by bouncing knockers so much that I ended up getting my ass kicked...)
According to the Metal Gear Solid 4: Database, she was born in 1922 and is the daughter of one of the original members of the Philosophers behind the Philosophers' Legacy. She is known in Russia as Voyevoda, literally meaning The Warlord. In June 1944, during World War II, she led the Cobra unit to victory at the Battle of Normandy. She was pregnant at the time with a baby fathered by The Sorrow. The Boss gave birth to a baby boy on the battlefield via a messy caesarian section that left her with a long, snaking scar across her abdomen. The baby was taken by the Philosophers and would later grow up to be Revolver Ocelot.
I'm not sure if they're tactical, but at least someone put a whole lot of time in making these nice chainmail codpieces [http://www.chainmail.com/chainmall/tbackmale.htm]: "The cod piece is the most involved of my designs. I spent months of time and created 10 or 12 prototypes before I had a design that was both comfortable and attractive."manaman said:Now someone needs to clue me in on a tactical codpiece, that I would have an interest in buying.
Even Britney Spears knows that you wear your cod piece over your pants.twistedshadows said:manaman said:Now someone needs to clue me in on a tactical codpiece, that I would have an interest in buying.Wouldn't that make your pants fit oddly?

I admit that I'm not an expert in codpieces. But still, it seems like a tactical codpiece would be cumbersome over pants.woem said:Even Britney Spears knows that you wear your cod piece over your pants.
I like the way you think. I'm just not entirely sure society will agree.624 said:Who needs pants when you've got a codpiece?
