Let's face it if there were actual scales on the mid section it would look even better.
Honestly, I don't think that's because it's "sexier" or "more aesthetic" that way... Why would there be this hole meanwhile all the other AF are the same for both genders ?

Compared to every other job, it's the only one that demands a high level of flexibility... And don't object that NIN too demands that, NIN demands another type of physical training. It's the same difference as there is between a gymnast and a free runner. And, because of their pelvis, Male DRG are less flexible than Female DRG. So, there is probably a slight difference in their combat style : Men focus more on strength and, maybe, blocking, and women focus more on dodging and hitting the right spot. That's just a theory, but if that's the case, then, the lack of scales can be explained : Male DRG are more likely to be hit, while Female dodge, and the fact that this plate is not there enhance their flexibility.

If you really wanna complain about something : How come females can equip male's wedding costume while males can't equip female's wedding costume ? That's sexist !
