>My parents watched me as I built my first cosplay.
>Me father would make remarks 'nerd, lol' but nothing much beyond that.
>He was actually impressed with how it turned out despite it being my first cosplay.
>Neither of my parents really understand what cosplay is, they think it's a halloween costume party out of season.

>Fast forward a few weeks
>Friends of the family come over for supper
>"Hey, why don't you put on your nerd costume and show it off?" me father says.
>I turn beet red and try to brush it off as something not important.
>He keeps pushing and I finally bring in a piece of the costume.

I don't mind the praise I got but this is not a hobby I flaunt to just anybody.

"Hey guys, rec me whatever character you want me to cosplay as! I'll look into anything!"
>person looks exactly like X character
"Why not ___?"
"Noooo, s/he's too slutty/boring/flat/minor!"

This.
It's more often than not a whiteknight than the actual person.

True, most fat people don't look good in cosplay. However, I doubt you actually get sick from it. People who hate fat people for no apparent reason other than it's "unhealthy" make me sicker. I mean, no one hates or is really bigoted against people who drink alcohol or smoke cigs. Not even a SJW, I just think it's hypocritical to be disgusted by how "lazy" or "uncaring" fat people are, yet be perfectly fine with smokers or drinkers.

Look, I'm fat myself. I don't expect to be considered attractive. I don't expect I'll be healthy later in life unless I get my act together. I don't expect people to stop telling fat jokes. I do expect to be treated with respect.

I agree with the above statements regarding the weebs screaming and whatnot.
Here's a quick story about jimmies being rustled:

>Saturday night
>In circular rest area on second floor sitting on butter couch thing
>Woman sits next to me
>Proceeds to say WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? I'M CONFUSED WHAT'S GOING ON?"?
>I explain to her shortly that it's an anime convention
>WHY ARE THEY ALLOWED TO DRESS LIKE WHATEVER THEY WANT? THEY ARE PRACTICALLY NAKED! WHAT IS THIS? WHAT IS THAT? etcetc
>I just quickly say that its part of the convention. We dress up as characters.
>I'VE NEVER SEEN CHARACTERS LIKE THAT! OMG WHERE ARE THE RESTRICTIONS? DO YOU HAVE ANY? OHMYGOD I WOULD LOOOOOVE TO HEAR WHAT RESTRICTIONS ARE HERE,
>My friend A walks up to me and my friends.
>She said how Shadofax forgot the strobe lights
>Bitch loudly says to A "OH MY GAWDDDDD THEY FORGOT THE STROBE LIGHTS! HOW AWWWUFL!" in a very mocking voice.
>A walks away awkwardly
>Bitch keeps yelling at her husband to LOOK AT THAT and WHAT IS THAT?!?! and WHAT IS SHE/HE WEARING?!?! while pointing obviously. He gives no fucks.
>After doing that for 10 minutes, he decides to leave and she follows after him.
>mfw

You know, not all of us are freaks or anything, and we would like to be accepted just like anyone else. But to be so fucking ignorant or stupid or whatever her case is is unacceptable. I would have loved to shit in her room and whatever she eats out of. She was probably a hooker for the guy anyways.
