Perhaps that is when "hot pants" came into vogue, Orcs being risque and all.

Actually, I'm firmly convinced leisure suits were an Orkish invention.

Look, alatar, isn't it bad enough to have to deal with the "Gandalf uncloaking" mental picture? Naked hobbits on the Barrow-downs are a pretty unappealing thought as well. Let's not add nude Orcs to the fray.

I'm just saying, what better way to annoy those slipper-wearing elves?

And again, have we ever settled the issue regarding the existence of female orcs (or the species equivalent)?

Note that I won't be selling any 'Orcs at the beach' calendars anytime soon.

Even Peter Jackson had interesting thoughts about clothing orcs (as read here) ...

Yeah...imagine all the fungus that must be growing in...um...not-so-nice places.
