Re: Only Cute Stories Need Apply

Ewwww. cringe cringe.

I was never a princess for Halloween. I was a variety of things, such as a skeleton and Harry Potter (it didn't even occur to me to think that cosplaying an actual boy would be "weird") and a cat burglar thing and I think once maybe a cowgirl? or something? Most of mine were pretty gender-neutral. I'm so glad my mom never (not once that I can remember, in fact) gave me the "be a ~real~ girl" spiel and she would have had plenty of opportunities. For a time when I was a kid I shopped almost exclusively for boys' clothes (I thought they looked cooler) and had a really short haircut and eschewed anything ~~girly~~.

Looking back on it its kind of odd, since my parents aren't...well, they're not Extreme Hard Right but my mom is definitely a more conservative person, and doesn't have the most progressive views on things like sexuality and gender identity, but she never once voiced a concern about these choices. :|a Actually, it kind of makes me wonder how awful other parents must be if my relatively politically conservative mom was totally ok with the way I expressed myself as a kid. >___>

(OT, but I realized I forgot to leave an important part out of my own cute story. I'm 23, and people say I look a bit younger. There are people of a variety of ages here, so some context helps explain why the girl's exclamation was so funny xD)

ETA: I guess that means Harry Potter was my first real cosplay. Woah. That's so weird! I didn't even know what cosplay *was*. I think I was about 12 xDD

It's actually never occurred to me, but absolutely every one of my Halloween costumes as a child was either non-gendered (playing card, severed head on a plate) or clearly male (harpo marx, blue-beard...) I guess I have to retro-actively thank my parents for letting me choose whatever I wanted and making absolutely no bones about it.

The only time that I ever remember doing a princess outfit was when I was... oh, somewhere between six and nine, and I reused part of my previous year's costume and was a cat princess. I may have been a strange child.
