The real reason why men got a loincloth and females didn't, back in the day, was, the executioners were afraid of the soon to die prisoner trying to piss on them as a final act of defiance. But since women can't 'aim and spray' the way a male can, the was no need for them to have loincloths.I wonder why the crucified male is allowed to wear a loincloth, has the female rights movement not yet reached the crucifixions?
It should also be added that, back in the day, the primary reason most prisoners were executed nude, had little to do with inflicting a final humiliation on them, but rather that, in an era when many people only owned one set of clothes (owning a set of work clothes and another 'Sunday best', already marked you as economically 'better off' than many), the clothing was valuable.
In the Bible there is a passage about the Roman soldiers dicing to see which one of them would get to keep Jesus clothes... That mattered.
