Close up of Caption of the boobs and butt "fusion" woman from  "Drawing Cutting Edge Fusion" book, text reads: "You can also apply the Fusion style to female fighters to increase their femininity and attractiveness, although this will cause them to lose some of their aggressiveness.  But not all fighters need to be murderous machines.  Plus, readers like to see sharp, good-looking women battling the bad guys."

So I'm looking through this "how to draw" book about Fusion style (supposedly mixing American comics with manga styles) and... apparently American style is an awkward boobs and butt twist while fusion style is a boobs and butt pose with a more extreme twist.  Also, apparently making a female fighter more "feminine" causes them to lose their "aggressiveness".
