Not bait. Men are boring.

Almost all of their hobbies revolve around consuming content rather than creating it. They watch Netflix or anime, play video games, and collect shit. It's all insular, solitary, and doesn't add anything to the actual hobbies.

Women have hobbies that are about creating. A woman who spends hours making a cosplay for her favourite character from an anime, plans a photoshoot, and then uploads those photos to instagram is 100% more interesting as a person than some dude who has memorized every second of the same show.

The reason then that men always want to get drunk at conventions is because they're taken away from their normal routine and cannot access those hobbies. They don't have their consoles or computers to watch anime on and browse the internet. So you get men getting wasted and looking at memes on their phones because that's the closest they can come to their solitary hobbies in public, and they have no real way to connect with other people otherwise.

Seeing how you knew those specific things about me you didn't even cosplay at all and just weirdly ran into me constantly to give me weird stares and shit.

The most fun was hanging out with the DJ's who flew in for a small con of 100 people this year, and chilling with people not talking shit about their cosplay/enjoying a small con.

TL;DR
>My friend who does terrible drag wants to wear lolita
>I point him to Bodyline
>He immediately wants to buy pic related

My male friend has come out as queer and doing drag. It's fine we're still friends and I got him into drag race and dressed him in lolita a few times, it was fun and he's skinny and white and twinky so he looked cute. However it's fucking pissing me off now that he's doing his own drag and it's so half-assed and he keeps forcing it down my throat for asspats. He's just doing it because he thinks it's kinky and hot to wear women's clothes and get fucked. Like I'm a good lolita, my coords are great and my make-up is cute and I always match my wigs and make accessories for each coord. But he doesn't shave his body hair, has wonky ass brows, does terrible contouring, and only wears stripper heels/tights/a corset/black lingerie in drag. His make-up is terrible, he clomps around like a man, and has no drag persona or real performance. Like Tammy Brown looks more like a real woman than he does.

This is a disgusting sissy in a twink's body pretending to be a 'drag queen' in 2020 because it's trendy now. He has no visual aesthetic, and isn't working on finding an eye for fashion or reading vogue or vanity fair. He's having a gay old time doing 'balls' and being in a 'house' of some equally C tier randoms who just started imitating it because Drag Race is so big now.

This grinds my gears because as a veteran cosplayer and lolita, it means something to me to 'dress up'. Getting the details right and the look together and the aesthetic smooth is hard work. This fucker always shows me his half-assed black-lingerie-and-stripper-boots outfits and gets salty when I don't go "oh you fishy fantasy you look more gorgeous than a real woman!"

I've tried being gentle and suggesting he find some visual influences or learning how to sew, or practice walking in heels, but he just doesn't give a shit. Will take zero concrit.

You do realize this could literally be a (You) thing about being antisocial right? I know this is bait but it's true for some anons I know and it ends me to no end. Did you even mention or hint at him being a bit drunk or anything? I assume not seeing how you just ran away.
>we walk around the con, he starts being pretty obnoxious
>just go along with it but can see that most girls are super uncomfortable with it
Nigga you went in with a sour attitude and probably believed this because you were annoyed already and seeing the bad ends of things. Reminds me of when I hosted a room at AWA and some dude paid me in pizza and booze rather than cash, though some gull in our room went on a huge autist mode melt down and made shit up about how anon "stole by not paying for the room" even though I said paying via booze/pizza was completely fine. Any issue the con had for said autist anon some how was the direct fault of anon who paid me via pizza/booze.


There is a better chance if this post is true that you're just not a hugely social person and the other anon is. It's fine if you're that way, introverts and extroverts don't mix that's generally why con horror stories get multiplied by 10 all the time.

This is probably the best example for anyone to use as an analogy in public. Most people may know anime as being pokemon at most, you really expect them to understand what other shit is?

Lolita is a niche fashion, therefore people with huge hoards of rare brand and people with few taobao pieces are mixed, and that causes drama.

People who make some fake superior moral high ground standards about themselves at a con for no other reason than to make everything during the con seem far worse. Mostly notice this during /cgl/ meets or gulls I room with but there are tons who are at fault for this. You all know you people look like complete fakes right? Like most people either think you are an autist or bullshiting them, no one is buying you are a choir boy while at the same time liking some dark shit like junji ito's works and can turn around about how they can be a real party animal.

Yes, but if you're not having fun and they're not having fun then it'd be better to part. Even if just for a while, sometimes it's easier to digest people in doses. It's okay to group hop too! Just be a pleasant and polite person.

[Anonymous No.10376866]

I'm so incredibly frustrated with people who ask dumb questions that they could easily look up themselves regarding items I'm selling. Not even just in lolita, but in selling pretty much anything online. There this one girl who lives in the same city as me who always messages me asking what I'm selling, even though my sales albums are visible to her on Facebook. And every single time she wants to buy something from me, she asks now much it costs in CAD (I list things in USD because it's what most of the sales groups I'm share to use) when she could damn well Google that shit herself, and then she lowballs me 99% of the time anyway. She's bought a bunch of stuff from me before, but holy shit it's just so irritating to deal with her laziness anytime I list anything for sale.

Yes. That's literally all it took. Someone told me I was really fat, and my sister confirmed it. So I cut out all fast food and snacks for 2 years until I got back to 120 pounds. Literally all it takes is a calorie deficiency.

And those 2 years were all sunshines and butterflies I'm sure. Man I agree that it's always worth to loose weight and a calorie deficiency us part of it, but fatties don't need a 40+ yo larping man to tell them that just calling them fat often enough does the trick.

People always give shit to male cosplayers without recognising that male cosplayers are much more likely to identify with and act like their character which was the original focus of the hobby to begin with. People should be discouraged from following cosplay trends because it shows that they don't really care about the characters.

Is your personality and acting going to make your pictures look better, anon? Acting like a character is part of the fun, not what cosplay is about. Don't twist it to back up your weak excuses not to improve. Makeup, sewing, and styling are all skills that anyone can improve on, not just women.

kinks are just undiagnosed mental illness

no strong belief in this but it feels like sexual fantasy is a weird coping mechanism for childhood trauma, the majority of kinks being power/control related and especially the age regression and ddlg submissive stuff. the man in the situation is just an opportunist using their partners trauma-induced kink to their advantage to coom

According to the DSM-5, kinks aren't considered mental illness unless the person who has it is directly in conflict with said kink or said kink has led to inappropriate actions against others.

this is some nice armchair psychology, but no not really. most people have some sort of kink and only a fraction of people get abused in childhood. what you're saying is definitely true some of the time but you can't assume it's true for all.

So what suggests to you "mental illness" and not "unresolved desires"? Because that's an element of a healthy mind, not excessive self-imposed repression in order to make a "point" to anonymous internet people.

If you want good pictures go to the studio, stay there and don't shit up the convention with your poor attitude. Vanity is the death of community.

>>10377371
Convention goers aren't there to entertain you, they're there to express themselves, have fun and meet like-minded individuals. Cosplaying as Deadpool is one of the most cathartic experiences an introverted nerd can have. Deadpool is popular at conventions because it represents everything that's fun about wearing a costume at a convention. In partial anonymity you can be the extroverted, social action hero you always wanted to be for a day. Stop treating them like your private entertainers and you might have fun too.

>>10377373
You do know Cosplay is a portmanteau of costume and play right? As in you actually have to engage in a fun behaviour while you're in costume. Historically cosplay is just the Japanese form of larping without the rules, stories and original characters.

As always the capitalistic spirit of American society has destroyed the very soul of the community to shit out another commodity. Another picture to buy, another cosplayer to cyberstalk, another cammer to tip. In the never ending costhot vs beta-enabler debate it's everyone who's at fault. The wannabe Jessica Nigri's have stewed in their jealousy for too long and forgotten why they entered the community in the first place. Meetups have turned to photoshops, conventions aren't for playing, they're for networking, you don't meet new friends, you perv on strangers. Cosplayers aren't your private models, and they aren't your customers they're your comrades who share your interests - treat them like it.
