Good find, I can't even finish reading this article, it's written so fucking annoyingly holy shit. The author is the type of person that thinks the Big Bang Theory is an accurate portrayal of ~nerd culture~ and the man-hating part is just the cherry on top.

Yup I'm sure an American woman in the 1940's was the very first person to dress in costume ever, and she was the one who started the entire concept of public costuming, and only after a visiting Japanese journalist wrote about it in the 1980's that cosplaying began in Japan. That's the timeline that this article reports.
