FOR ALL COSPLAYING INDIVIDUALS

After reading this ignorant post, I felt the need to make a response post:

If your cosplay looks

like

this

You can indeed be a geek. 

You can indeed be cute.

You can indeed be creative.

You are always worthy of respect, no matter what you wear.

Clothing is not an indicator of self worth. A person is a person, no matter what they wear. Cosplay in itself can be an art form, but it can also be just for pleasure; shits and giggles and all that. Fuck anyone who tells you your self worth and “level of geekiness” is low due to this. Fuck that noise.

You are not an attention-whore. You are simply enjoying what makes you happy.

I don’t usually reblog things like this, but there’s a person I follow (and follows me) whose post I normally enjoy but sometimes feels the need to be extremely negative about other people’s cosplays. Why don’t you focus more on good cosplays instead of being extremely negative about other people’s cosplays? It would make you a nicer person.

It’s just people having fun.

thank

sigh @ the original linked post

fucking judgmental pricks ruining everyone’s fun
