Do you think only tall people should play tall characters? Do you think only Asian people should play Asian characters? Do you think only white people should play white characters? Tell me, do you think only aliens should cosplay aliens?

No? Oh, right, because it's fucking ridiculous. It is just fucking costumes. People wear them because they like the character, typically. And the vast majority of characters are thin.
Get the fuck over yourself.

Should've tossed in blackjackrocket under 'bad'.

Anon, it's good cosplay and bad cosplay, nothing to do with fatness.

And those 'bad fat cosplay' examples aren't even bad.

You know what's a really easy thing to do? Quit being an over-judgemental jackass and just avert your eyes if it's really so damaging to your vision.

Uh.
The only 'bad' cosplay i saw there was the one that looked like cotton balls stuck to something? The costume was just kinda....meh. But the others all looked fine to me.

Despite me only recognizing Sailor Moon.

Just because the person cosplaying is heavy and decides to wear a costume where you can see their belly/thighs *gasp!* does not make it *bad*. Kudos to them for knowing their not the 'perfect body type' as dictated by the commercial male gaze and going for it, anyway.

This. I mean, I'm not quite sure what's going on in the second "bad" picture as far as what's on her neck, but I think she has a beautiful body, and I know many men who would agree with me.

I am, myself, a fat person, so I'm probably biased here, but only the first one of the "bad" examples really looked unpleasant, and that was largely because I was going "oh, geez, I hope they don't have the A/C on high." The second one was meh, but I've seen far worse on far skinnier people. The last one would have been fine if she'd been in a color that worked with her skin tone - not familiar with the series, so I don't know if there was a character with a color that would have flattered her more.

It's called cosplay because if you need to actually make a costume to do it you're doing it wrong

Your logic and/or sentence structure escapes me.

The joke is that what I said is the opposite of what is true. It is silly to expect people to only cosplay as characters that they look like.
