Why single out the women? The men are just as scantily clad, and there are slightly more of them seen.


* VaporWear: Apparently a common form of traditional dress on Edo. If those Edo women were wearing any less fabric, there would be no need to bother with fabric at all. (A bit of Fridge, especially for older and athletic viewers: those slippers they're wearing have no support whatsoever, and they're all running on hard-surfaced pathways. )

When they scan Data's mind he picks up that they used to be flesh-and-blood creatures in the distant past, but have evolved beyond such forms. Data practically quotes the principle while discussing the Edo "god" with Picard.

'''Data:''' Any sufficiently advanced life-form would appear to others to be that, sir.

Picard refuses to let arithmetic decide the issue. (Later, when Wesley himself learns of this possibility, it's implied that he wouldn't be willing to risk the crew's lives for his sake.)
