Hygiene aside, you do realize a lot of people who go to cons might have social problems, like anxiety disorders or Asperger's, right?

[(Anonymous)]

Which makes it okay to insult or hit cosplayers for doing characters that someone else doesn't like?

Aside from the social awkwardness the behaviors that the OP described are actually things that should invite judgement, and acting like it's meeeeean to think that is some grade-A GSF bullshit.

I see. Then that makes it okay for them to hit people and refrain from bathing!

Oh wait, no it doesn't.

If someone has "social problems" to the extent that they cannot perform basic personal hygiene or control their behavior to keep themselves from physically assaulting people, then they should not attend a con. Really. It's nobody's "right" to go to a con, it's a fun privilege. Some people do not deserve that privilege and no amount of "... but what about the pwecious widdle feelwings of the socially awkward????" changes that. Being socially awkward is regrettable, but luckily, it's something most people can and should work on. It is NOT asking too much of anyone (socially awkward or not!) to respect other peoples' personal space.

Also, Asperger's doesn't make you smell bad. Asperger's doesn't make you hit people. You might mean well by trying to excuse people because of their mental health (or maybe you're trolling, I don't know) but please stop. You're not doing Aspies any favors by implying that this condition makes you an antisocial cave troll that everyone else has to treat like a special snowflake.

Who effing cares? How is that an excuse? Some creepy dude tries to grab me, I'm not going to ask for his diagnosis. Why are women always expected to overlook this shit? Stop trying to justify shit.

[(Anonymous)]

This. "But... but social anxiety disorder/Asperger's!!!" has become a classic MRA rallying cry for why women should just shut up and stop resisting creepers who creep on them. It's a bullshit argument.
