Man toxic masculinity really has ruined society repeatedly.

Loose the noose maybe

Yea it makes me sad to look at them. I had a trigeminal nerve irritation for a year and my face bothered me so much. It messed me up so bad over some invisible tingling…They must always have their face feel off. Every time they look in the mirror its a reminder that they’ve lost their sense of identity.

If that happened to me, I would need therapy to get over the loss of my face.

They sent ice into nyc ahead of the mayoral elections specifically targeting areas that are latino, indian and Asian. I think this is them testing the tampering.

In the hot areas it’ll be death.

Or it’s little breadcrumbs circling around the fact that he has dementia and no one is doing anything about it.

Segregation is not awesome.

The last time they did this, we had an outbreak in Wuhan.

Yea. But convention space is not a strip club. The most revealing thing would be beach attire. Their argument is sexist and creepy.

If you’re going into a convention space to sexualize women the way you would at a strip club you’re there for the wrong reason.

The comparison shouldn’t even be drawn and its crazy and creepy. Children can go to a con. People with his mindset shouldn’t.

I have a lot of cosplayer friends and showing less skin doesn’t really change things when creeps are involved. In this thread there are people comparing nerd conventions to strip clubs. Advocating for the isolation of women entirely.

It’s a scary thing.

Half of the cosplayers are shows are men. A good chunk are under 18. Every show has dress code so anyone exposing too much wouldn’t make it through the door. There are rules in place for everyone’s comfort and just because you find someone attractive doesn’t justify this behavior.

No one owes you a picture. If you ask they’ll probably say yes, but they bought their ticket too and want to enjoy the show. Taking sneaky pics is frowned on because people have stalkers, strict jobs and don’t want to end up on someone’s spank bank (which was an actual problem in the early 2000s).

Costuming is an art and a skill. Capturing a character in its essence and being an award winning cosplayer is coveted. There are competitions all over the US and there is even one near me where the prize is 10k for the top competitor.

Dont let the creeps persuade you. The girl is showing a little leg and tummy and smiling having a good time. Thats someone’s little sister and she probably loves that character and worked for months on that costume just to go to one of the biggest conventions in the world.

It definitely got pulled from social media and now is being misused in a debate that at its core was created by someone who thinks its okay to assault women.

Don’t side with the creeps. Little concessions by the average good person add up as validation to someone who has bad intentions.

A convention space, while a public space, has convention rules. These rules came out of necessity over the past 25 years of nycc and were not always there.

If you pan over a crowd, no one is going to ban you. These rules are there for specific people who make the space feel unsafe and it feels like a lot of them showed up in this thread angry.

If the space doesn’t make it feel safe for cosplayers, cosplayers won’t show up.

In Japan its even more strict. The US just politely asks. No one owes anyone anything and just by dressing up, you’re not entitled to their picture in your phone.

Most people are fine with it.

Its the creeps who say things like I’m taking this for my spank bank or who try and angle an upskirt photo that are really the problem.

Are they legally able to walk onto a beach?

Well luckily conventions kick out creeps and permanent ban repeat offenders. So I guess instead of punishing cosplayers, separating assholes is the real solution.

Garbage platius

This is so weird I can’t even process it. I guess trump got his hotel and his jet and God knows what else. Is there no one in power holding anyone in this administration accountable? I’m no one and I know this is fishy af.

First the pigs and now this. They’re trying to freeze and starve them out through the winter.

That’s some brilliant diagnosing

The problem is that they’re going to take out the immunocompromised who had nothing to do with it. And their mess is going to seep out of the border of their state because it a a vacation hotspot.
