Also, as far as Spiderman goes, be weary of character ages mate. All of these high school kids are pretty much underage, so you can't blame them for being cautious on this one. I would be too.
Also keep time constraints in mind, these episodes are only 20-22 mins long with out commercials.

Age of the characters hasn't stopped them from transforming the male characters, at all. They get onscreen transformations, ripped clothing, etc. There's a clear double standard when it comes to female characters as apparently anything involving a female has to be inherently sexual therefore we can't show any part of it. The knee-jerk reaction on age of fictional characters is a bit much as well. I don't recall anyone getting uppity about the transformation fan art of Sailor Moon characters or any other anime character, stuff that went on at the Process for years. They're not real. Also, not all the characters in the rant were teens, the female agents and scientists were adults and they didn't get any screen time with their TFs like the males did. They almost showed one female revert, but didn't, even though her clothing was still intact and nudity would not have been a factor.
When you put all these things together, it really makes it look like they are aware of the female TF fetish and actively avoid presenting anything that might fall into it. Or at the very least whoever planned the scenes saw the female transformations as being sexy and decided not to show any on screen because it's "not that kind of show". Males transforming into monsters is fine to the person in charge of that aspect of production because that's "cool and cliche and normal" but a woman doing the same might look hot or something, because a woman doing anything is automatically hot and that's why they're just barely even in the show.
If we're assuming it's due to time constraints then we're saying male characters have priority over female characters automatically. Which is just another level of the same problem, just plain ordinary, everyday, sexual inequality.
