I'm sure it wouldn't be anywhere near as enlightening or interesting, but I'd like to see the same done in reverse, sticking females characters in standard super-dude poses and outfits. A Superwoman and Batwoman would probably still be all kinds of luridly appealing, even without hip-and-bosom contortions. But seeing their poses drained of sexuality, and characters like Iron Woman only hinting at curves, would be fascinating (to me, at least).

Speaking of which, taking current female supers and de-Pamela Anderson-izing them, giving them physiques more like Olympic athletes, might be coolest of all. Again, it's not like they wouldn't be sexy. Olympians show up naked in magazines every two years, now. Their bodies are obviously interesting to look at, but in a less corny, old-school porn-y sort of way.

Also, aren't these images basically outing the various existing male heroes as being either alarmingly lacking in the endowment department, or else champion tuckers? Their tights aren't exactly all that roomy, and yet they manage to avoid more than the gentlest slope of crotchly protuberance. They should all look as distracting as the fine fellows in that first illustration.
