Chainmail bikini squad

The infamous "Chainmail Bikini Squad"!

For those who may not know, the Chainmail Bikini Squad is a humorous concept that originated in the early days of online gaming and fantasy fandom. It refers to a group of female characters in fantasy settings, typically depicted wearing impractically revealing armor, such as chainmail bikinis, while engaging in combat or other adventurous activities.

The idea of the Chainmail Bikini Squad is often used to poke fun at the often-sexualized and objectified portrayal of women in fantasy media, particularly in games, comics, and anime. It's a tongue-in-cheek commentary on the absurdity of depicting women in such a way, often with little regard for practicality, safety, or realism.

The term has since become a meme and a cultural reference point, symbolizing the absurdity and humor in these depictions. It's often used to describe situations where women are portrayed in a similarly impractical or unrealistic manner, or to poke fun at the notion that women can't be strong, capable, and powerful without being sexualized.

So, if you ever find yourself in a fantasy setting and someone mentions the Chainmail Bikini Squad, just know that they're probably referencing this humorous concept and the absurdity of it all!
