Greek warriors wore skirts.

As a historian I must add, this is also not an accurate portrayal of a Greek warrior. It works for movies and games, but the reality was different. That is a lot of very expensive equipment and the regular soldier at the front was nowhere as well-armed. That btw. was one of the biggest immersion breakers for me in Kingdom Come Deliverance, for example, regular soldiers wearing way too expensive armor.

He's not. Skirts were a thing back in the day. He needs some shoulder wear though. That may not be historically accurate, but it would make it look more manly to the average reader.
In the picture it is a skirt, in reality, it was called a chiton. And it looked a little bit different.

It is either the undergarment of the armor or you are wearing it for work (however a lot of the work was done nude).

The chiton for men was shorter because if you were wearing one for work it was more practical that way. The peplos for women was longer, often down to the feet.

btw. Usually the more clothing you were wearing, the richer you were. And white skin, because of the clothing was a symbol of wealth.

Cool stuff! Speaking of which: your take on the depiction of said garments in AC: Odyssey? I remember a lot of "skirt" type armors.

The Assasin's Creed series is always rough if you look at it too close and from a "professional" view. There are a lot of mistakes in there, but it is a game, it should entertain. They are historical fantasy games.

The latest Wonder Woman storyline involves Earth-11 where everyone is gender swapped. So we now have Wonder Ma'am.

They’ve been SEX swapped, not gender swapped. The conflation of sex (your biology) with gender (your sex-based presentation) is the main reason why everything surrounding this topic is so messy and fucked up atm.

What is the difference? Genuine question, I have no idea.
