As for clothing making a difference in a fight, it does. Cloth can help if the person falls down or is forced against a wall. I'd rather rip my pants then rip my skin. In this case, Gwen is thinly built, but trust me, larger chests really need support. (For all the guys out there, try running around without a jock strap for a while!) Has anyone seen the movie Innocent Blood - tolerable vampire flick? The first scene has the female vampire totally nude. The way she moved and reacted was great. For her, it was completely natural. The actress didn't randomly throw her arms up into the air to show off her breasts. She didn't find excuses to bend over or make sexy, pouting faces. The camera "reacted" to her the same as it would have to a fully clothed person - no strange angles to focus on her breasts or crotch. Not only did I not have a problem with the scene, I thought it was great. It established the character in a thoughtful, mature way. I don't object to nudity, but it should make sense. If nothing else, doesn't Gwen get tired of carrying her sword everywhere (no scabard), and don't her feet hurt by now?
