Re: Secrets you don't want to make...

Overall, I try to live and let live. But just inside myself, the existence of cosplay has made me a lot less tolerant of hyper-sexualized women's costumes in canon. I don't mind rule 34 or the boorus or whatever putting everyone in boob windows and thongs and fetish-wear. I do mind women having to choose between wearing clothes and going for costume accuracy on a character that's even halfway well-known, central, and popular. Especially when guys have a wide selection of costumes that aren't stripping them and don't make them look inadequate if they don't have perfectly sculpted arms and abs and upper thighs and asses. And you know - they also get a wide selection of characters that fill the role of "hot but visibly older."

At least cosplay costumes has more of a variety of costumes for women, both modest and skimpy. Unlike a lot of costume shops only having sexualized costumes for women, including only having sexualized versions of even non-sexy outfits and characters. Idk if that’s still how it is, but it was like that since the 2000s in America. My niece who was in middle school at the time went from having a wholesome costume one year to having to pick out the least sexualized costume she could find the next when costume shops became that way, all because she was tall for her age.

I still get what you mean though. I do think that most women choose to wear the sexualized cosplay themselves a lot of the time. There might be a lot of sexualized outfits in fiction to cosplay, but there are more modest ones, like I said. So they chose to wear the former over the latter, at least from what I’ve seen and heard from my friends.

I definitely agree that it sucks that only men seem to have the “hot but visibly older” options.
