/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I'm 41

Started cosplaying when I was 18 back in the late 90s.
I don't like what it has become with the having to be a model, not crediting the actual maker on your posts, sex sex sex cosplay all the time for some folks.

But as said in >>10469653, you get much better at ignoring shit as you get older.

I just think to myself, well that's nice...I'm glad you are having fun but it comes with caveats:

*looks are gonna fade real quick, and it's gonna look more and more obvious as you fight it. So don't.
*internet keeps track. Don't be a dick, we will know forever if you conveniently didn't mention you hired GSTQ to sew for you in your photos/stream/ect.
*again, sex is fine. I mean it's everywhere else so why not inundate your cosplay with it. But again that shit last forever and can follow you forever if a busybody work finds out and plasters it on an email to the office/your boss. Also your body isn't going to last forever so I don't know if that albatross is worth it following you around a decade later.
We still punish the shit out of women who dare use their own body.

I started in 1998 and I can attest this is true.
I liked the way she used fabric and did some quality work.

And then she got a big head. Then big boobs.

It's hard to be a humble nerd when you got that many people riding your dick. I don't like big headed people so I've kept my distance. Not like that feat is hard, she only wants you around if you can do something for her.
