[edit] "Barefoot" (quibble)

"The jungle girl is depicted as wearing a scanty animal skin as a dress or bikini and is always barefoot." --- I see that this is also mentioned in the articles of various specific characters listed on this page -- apparently it is a topic of interest to some editors. :-) While I am no expert on the subject of Jungle Girls myself, I assume that in modern film versions they may be depicted wearing sandals or leather moccasins, as actresses might not be expected to go barefoot on location shoots.

As other editors have noted, a fetishist vandal, using mutliple sockpuppet accounts, has gone around adding "barefoot" comments to a number of articles about fictional female characters. Related or not, the original account seems to be User:Creepy Crawler. See [1] -- Tenebrae (talk) 19:54, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
In this instance, User:TheOuterLimits seems to be the guilty party, judging by this article's history list. BOZ (talk) 20:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
