I think this is the first time we see Scott and Alex interacting since Alex came back.

Yes, it seems to me that the main point of the female poses is to twist them so that they're always presenting their secondary sex characteristics as much as possible. So you stick out your butt and breasts and twist around so they're both showing as much as possible, even plump them up in the art to draw the eye to them more. So these guys are being posed in a "sexy" way here. It doesn't look sexy to us, but that's what it's about.

I mean, if I was really imagining a comic book that was made for the women to look sexy by my standards it would be full of women in well-made clothes that didn't show that much skin and they'd stand in ways that made them look active, strong and graceful. Iow, the way the men are often posed now.
