It would make me infinitely happy if this game didn't follow the standard of men in actual armor that protects you and women in armor bikinis that could only stop hits if your attacker closed their eyes and swung randomly, and even then not much of the time. Basically, wherever on the cover/mobility scale you go for the male version, why not do the same for the female. Since you're (I believe) not restricting a character's stats/classes based on gender, there doesn't seem any reason why they can't wear similar armor.
