There was a time in (my) hi-skool when some of the girls wore leotard 
and jeans, so there's the complement?

I often (especially while waiting for sleep) think about Upload life. 
If you live in a simulation, and can control your appearance 
arbitrarily, what conventions arise?  I imagine there's a setting where 
"superhero skins" are customary, each unique.

And that, coupled with an older interest of mine, raises the question of 
the most natural way to wrap a coat-of-arms around a body.  (I think 
«Understanding Comics» contains the observation that superhero costumes 
are quasi heraldic, because they have the same function of quick 
recognition in often confusing settings.)
