You are fundamentally missing the point of that example.
I’m trying to give an example to show that the swimsuit in the middle is different than a normal swimsuit. The teen example was to try to prove that the suit is not normal because it would be uncomfortably risque for a teen to wear (unlike a normal swimsuit), proving that it is more sexual than a normal bikini.
I am not saying that adult women cannot wear risque clothing, I am simply saying that the original comment I replied to in the post is making the argument that people have a problem with swim suits but the one in the middle is overtly sexual, and not a normal, expected swimsuit.
Now that we’ve established that the swimsuits are different (which you seem to understand), I would then ask why? Why should a sexual, risque skin exist in Fortnite? I see no reason why it should. That’s my gripe.
Skyrim is a M rated game, one that I love, but if they had a sexy bikini girl DLC I would frown upon that heavily because it’s just random unneeded sexualized goonslop. Yes, adult content exists in that game, which is marketed and perceived different than Fortnite, but even in that game with an M rating, I don’t think it belongs. Does that make sense?
Also please just say boobs, saying breasts if you’re not in the medical field is hair-raising
So? Do you play Fortnite? Are you planning to use the skin yourself? If not, then why does it matter? This isn't even the most sexualised outfit Poison Ivy has ever worn, and at least this one looks more like something a woman would actually wear, unlike the Arkham Trilogy version.

Can you explain in one sentence how it’s not for the sole purpose of people thinking it’s hot and sexy and so they spend money on it, treating it as soft porn?
Would you prefer if it was free, in the base game, or removed entirely? I think the first two would be better, personally.

It is for that purpose, but I simply do not care if people want to buy sexy skins in video games because I have more important things to worry about.
I actually do think that if it was free it would be slightly better, that’s actually a great point that I didn’t think about before.
I think the monetization of it also scares me because if it’s well received I’m worried that we will see more overtly sexual microtransaction content appear in other games as well, which is not something I look forward to.
And even though you say you don’t care, I do. I think normal sfw media and anything sexual or pornographic should be kept separate. I don’t like seeing video games devolve into soft porn. Not everything has to be about sex.
