I honestly beg to differ on that. The armor isn't entirely pointless.

Two words:
Steel Codpiece.

True, it's otherwise ineffectual for other things, but not 100% pointless. If nothing, it at least protects the ol' twig n' berries.

edit: though i do admit i found it funny and shared it with some friends.

Kinda like female armor protects areas normally covered by underwear, but nothing else? :P

Kinda, but are those parts considered weak points for women?

I mean, don't get me wrong, i'm sure it hurts, but is it generally considered a 1-hit takedown like it is with guys?

I'd never heard of it being so, but if so, i'd like to make sure! Just in case i go into battle and need such information! :O

Well, not quite the one-hit takedown that it is for guys (I'm assuming; I've never tested the theory) but most women do still think those parts are important. :P

The armor is clearly not pointless. The fact that it's there means that the picture isn't of a random naked guy. I would say that is point enough in and of itself. On the other hand, I think it's funny that it only seems to protect the right side of the guy's chest, while the heart is closer to the left side. Quite practical, that.

Holy crap! Archon's back!

Maybe the point of the armor is distraction. If that is the case, it is doing its job. Not that I've been distracted from my work by a picture of a mostly naked man, I swear.

If you look carefully, you can see the armor protecting him from an obviously crippling lack of shame.

LOL.  The stuff people wear to gay pride events. xP Never ceases to surprise me.  You see people at SLC Pride in like nothing but bondage.

(Just in case you didn't notice the couple just to the left.)
