As I said above, I know that Mashima was showing us how Sabertooth was run. However, I believe he did it in a messed up way. I'm not much of a believer in coincidences. Mashima has a huge history of pointless moments of fan service for me to believe that Yukino stripping naked had nothing to do with his perverted nature. Also, no offense, but if I'm reading what you are saying right, I think you are actually being a bit naive. Yukino and Flare are two messed up individuals. They are abused but they do nothing about it either because their minds are so warped that they believe they have to be abused or because they are too weak willed to do anything about it. Are you suggesting that most or all girls are like this? The only difference between Yukino and Flare and Erza and Kagura is will power and strength of mind. And that is not something that is determined by gender.
