And the Venus of Milo represents the typical female warrior rather than a beauty ideal? Women warriors were most likely though, sturdily-built women whose sexual characteristics had been suppressed by constant physical exercise. And I doubt the women mentioned in this thread used chest-plates: Boudicca and Tomyris because their cultures didn't know them, Cleopatra because she didn't fight, and Zenobia because she is described as an archer (and probably also didn't fight).
