A girl in my local cosplay community recently did the same thing and promoted it in the local private fb group (which is restricted to only people in our state). It was met with a lot of criticism, one guy made a post criticizing it that was dogpiled with WKs, mod deleted it, he got banned, and then the mod defended her and thotsplayers in general in a separate post. The girl in question has always had decent quality cosplay, so I guess we will see if her thotsplay at least has the same level of effort put in- although I doubt she’ll post it in the group. Her promoting it is the only time she’s ever posted there despite being a member for years.
Anyway now half the posts are attention seeking thots and guys thirsting over them in the comments. Before this posts used to be people posting cosplay progress, sharing con photos, nerdy parents posting their children’s costumes, and newbies asking questions.

A lot of women who are “genuinely happy and enjoy it” are fucked in the head one way or another. From nymphettes who have a hormonal condition that makes them super horny to post traumatic hypersexuality in rape and/or CSA victims. These chicks more often than not have been abused or repressed at one point in their lives. Their thottery is an unhealthy and dangerous coping mechanism that increases their chances of experiencing the same things in the future. I pity these girls more than anything desu.

Costhots thinking they are ‘working a con’ to increase their fame (and therefore thirsty ‘pay for attention’ fan base) instead of just a bunch of cosplayers being cosplayers at conventions. It has gone on way too long and I’m not sure when/if it will ever die back again to just a minor thing.

Most of them are, and if they aren’t when they start, they sure get that way quick enough. I don’t think you can do that kind of work and not mentally reduce every encounter to the base exchange rate once you start doing that and keep it going. The ones who are successful at it seem to pretty much live and breathe it, commodifying every aspect and there’s no Cinderella story at the end. Be honest, who loves the idea of an ex sex worker as a serious partner later in life? It’s kind of a short and shady career that leaves a big time gap in your CV, and often, some social media tracks to cover.

That’s another part of my thing. I’ve been in school for just about forever in order to achieve my career goals, I can’t imagine going to a job talk and having to explain pictures that potential employers found online of my entire “cosplay” vag people paid $5 for.
Sure, costhots may make some decent money for a bit, maybe even a few years, but even those bringing in the big money like JNig aren’t going to be able to do it forever. No amount of photoshop can save Yaya Han anymore.

I just can’t imagine being on my deathbed thinking “man I sure am glad that i spent most of my 20s selling lewds and nudes of myself and because of it got a late start in a real career and then never really progressed very far”.
People can try to justify doing this soft core porn shit as a way to make money, but really it’s just going to hurt almost everyone in the long run. And if people are doing it for fun, they’d still to canon thots and call it a day. Not pander by thotting up a sexy!fem!deku!ahegao cosplay.

The commodification of any hobby fucking sucks for those of us that are into it for fun, but it’s especially shitty when your hobby is made into porn

I mean come on anon you can dream for a super open-minded, feminist, sex (and sex work) positive company, but thinking that everyone there is going to be the exact same is pretty fucking absurd.

It’s not about the interviewer or even the company’s moral judgments, it’s about how they think their target audience will receive you and whether you may damage their reputation. My goal is to become a professor and some 18 year old frat bro stumbling across any lewds or nudes could potentially jeopardize tenure, if the school even gave me a tenure-track job to begin with. Any shit you put on the internet is gonna be floating around when you’re looking for a lifelong career. It’s pretty stupid to potentially jeopardize that so that you can have maybe a couple thousand followers and maybe make a bit more than minimum wage if you’re lucky.

SWERFs are a thing anon.

I don’t think a lot of the anons in this thread are SWERFs though desu. I couldn’t give a single fuck if people do sexual things in sexual settings which all parties have consented to. But cosplay isn’t a sexual setting. It’s a hobby that has become commercialized not by people making amazing creations, but by chicks who think it’s worth ruining their future prospects by selling nudes. Cosplay isn’t about sex or sexuality, so when that becomes the money-maker, it becomes normalized in a way which affects the hobby itself. Neck beards aren’t going to give money to someone who’s worked hard and made elaborate costumes of their waifu, they’re going to give money to the people who don’t actually make anything and do softcore porn.
Cosplay already has a bit of an association with kinky bedroom stuff, so all this sexual pandering is just making it worse

This is a great point that not a lot of young women seem to understand. Thottery lacks the anonymity of traditional sex work.

In every strip club I've been in, they don't allow you to take photos or videos of the girls and the bouncers are serious about enforcing the rules. The girls never use real names, and they're so done up anyway that even if someone did sneak a pic of them they wouldn't be very recognizable. Prostitutes are generally a little less anonymous, but still much moreso than girls posting hundreds of pics and videos of themselves on tiktok and insta.

Go back where? Saudi Arabia isn't particularly a nice place for a woman to go. My point is that a lot of youmg girls get into sex work because it's now deemed as cool or they just want an opportunity to make fast money like their idols on instagram do to live a lavish lifestyle. The issue is that so many girls end up chasing something that isn't real, as in they hardly make a living sexually humiliating themselves online, or use sex work as a way to get validation from scrotes om the internet. Also go to mention the general dangers of escorting and getting involved with wierd scrotes. There's a reason why most women settle for working for their money rather than slanging their pussy, let's keep it, real.

This type of shit is what happens when people think sex work is super easy. Pole dancing is fucking intense. A good stripper puts in a shitton of time and effort into what they're doing. And they make bank. Same with escorts. I know people who do pay their way through PhD programs by escorting, but not just thinking they can spread 'em and that's that. These are women who would actually escort men to places and be able to hold intelligent conversations. Then have sex with them, but it's not just some weak-ass nerd sex that these men are paying for.

This thottery and just attention seeking trend in the cosplay/convention world is the reason why I am slowly pulling out of the convention game.
I just want to hang out with like minded people and talk about shows or hobbies that I like.
Recently I was being hit on by some chick. Turns out she has a nsfw patreon (fun discovery on the first date), e-begs a lot on her FB page with promise of lewd Patreon photoshoots. After the first date, she told me she is wants something that is non-monogamous, polyamorous, wants to experiment a LOT and she is greysexual (basically she has commitment issues and can ditch me at any given moment). Did I tap? No, I was scared of catching something based on her "monogamy is toxic, I want to sleep with as many people as I want"-mentality
Some friends told me I should have tapped her because she represents every nerd's fantasy (beta males). But this isn't something that anyone wants to get into unless you are a cuck and there's nothing to be proud if you sleep with her if she feels attracted to you at the moment and the next you are nobody in her eyes

She was recently telling me one of the things that bugs her the most is other girls coming to her asking how to make as much money as she does from nsfw cosplay stuff, and then getting shocked when they find out its more than just putting out shit quality phone camera nudes up once or twice a month on OnlyFans and then getting people buy you hundreds of dollars of shit off Amazon.

I stayed at my parents house, I was a commuter student, was classified as a season worker and still managed to get a loan. The extra money was placed in my savings except for a few cheap hobby I developed. I can pay my whole loan in one go but I noticed that my interest rate is so low that it isn't a burden to my finance as of now.
Meanwhile, they get an appartment as soon as they hit 18, work part time and still get a student loan. They enjoy the student life, maintain a ridiculously expensive hobby.

Not sure about your area but its more complex than that. I know where my country has it so that working will qualify you to get less in loan money because they assume if you work you can afford it, as well if you are living at home your parents income is deciding what money you get from loans. You can have parents who make enough that you get too little, but they never gave you money to go to school with so you have to pay your way and move out to get loans properly. As well, depending on the hours it assumes the money you make will mean you can afford school without a loan even if you work to pay it off asap. So working part time could lead you to have not enough to afford to go to school.

Commuting is also a privilege, not everyone can. It all depends on where you live vs the school and what is out there for transit. Schools make you pay a ton for a parking permit.

I also had a friend who had 1 class left but got a full time job and the school would never accommodate with her schedule so she just dropped out. So then she had to pay back the loan and had no degree for it.

The system is out to get you and at 18 you have no idea of how bad it is.

Problem is, a vast majority of people can and don't want to because "waaaahhh I want to go out of state and have the ~*~REAL COLLEGE EXPERIENCE~*~ I live in a large metropolitan area where there are a ton of college campuses around, from community to state supported, to Ivy League to private Christian schools. And many places that do have public transit offer it free to college students. I myself had to pay for a parking permit. It was $175 for a year and the parking was hard enough to find and was a 15 minute walk at best from my classes because my school is a commuter school that doesn't want to be a commuter school so they actively try to bully people out of commuting.
But anyway, despite all these local colleges, my cousin, several friends of mine, and an older brother of my neighbor and elementary school classmate all decided to not go to a commuter school and instead go to different cities or even out of state for...no real reason honestly. The neighbor is an interesting case because that kid bankrupted his family getting an animation degree, moved to another state, got a pretty good job working on Family Guy, and offered no financial help to his family that was forced to sell their home because, like I said, they were swimming in debt from trying to put him through college. This is why my parents did not pay for my college, nor my brother's or sister's.
And the myth of the ~*~REAL COLLEGE EXPERIENCE~*~ traps many naive kids AND their parents. I have an alarming amount of students now who aren't going to commute because they or their parents want that. A lot of my friends who WENT to the SAME college as me lived on campus for part of or all of their college experience when they obviously could have commuted. And it's a myth that you have to live on campus to enjoy being in college. My brother, commuting just like me, was in a Fraternity and was a party animal. I'm sure he loved college and commuting as well as working part-time didn't change that.

I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself - we are creatures that should not exist by natural law... We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, that accretion of sensory experience and feelings, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody's nobody... I think the honorable thing for our species to do is to deny our programming. Stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction - one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.

Not sure why there's so much anger directed towards this post. Having a kid after 35+ (bonus points for a 35+ father) should be a cause for alarm. In fact, there's more research done in the last two decades showing some even more damning evidence. Advanced maternal and paternal age also lead to lowered IQs in otherwise healthy children, save for some very misleading studies a couple years back on advanced maternal age being correlated with higher offspring IQ. Sure, a 1/60 chance of down syndrome by age 40 doesn't sound too bad (you also have to keep in mind the multitude of other defects that have increased to similar chances such as Klinefelter's Syndrome, with autism blowing past all of them), but it is almost guaranteed that your child is going to take a very real blow to their intelligence. That's also not taking into account the increased risks of depression, anxiety disorders, Etc. As it turns out, mutated sperm and improperly split eggs are bad. Imagine my shock.

There's nothing more selfish than an old-geezer in his 50s and a 45+ baby-hungry hag subjecting their offspring to this shit. Adopt a kid or fuck off.

I dislike costhots as a trend but at the same time, they wouldn't be so popular if guys weren't such desperate thirsty losers. Meanwhile the same guys who rant about these costhots won't even support other cosplayers who don't show titties. Instead they just sit around expecting everyone to love them. You have to have support then; but no "cosplayers should only be volunteering their time and money and cosplay pics" well it doesn't work that way at all in hustle/social media culture. People follow the money.

And simps aren't the only ones to blame - incels bitching about women being ugly for their fave anime waifus and driving out most of the non-costhots contributed to this. Congratulations you idiots. You played yourselves.

And you just know that the people making them are those fame whores who only want to make flashy cosplays to woo competition judges by all the shiny and frilly things because they can't be assed to do something unique.

And you're absolutely right, I hate competitive trends as a whole. I've done a lot of judging and at some point I got so tired of pretending to be interested in these costumes I had seen for so many times already and the contestant being so fucking smug about their work they blatantly copied from someone else. When an Elsa cosplayer walks in front of the judges I'm more impressed with how someone still believes the "hand embroidered snowflake cape/bodice" is an amazing feat in 2020 than the actual handiwork in question.

I know I'm being hyperbolic and sort of mean spirited here but without exception these sort of contestants always become super pissed when they don't win and someone with a more innovative costume triumphs over their mundane Sakizou lace hell with half of the details all fucked up.

One thing that personally bothers me is that Sakizou always uses really warm and muted tones in his art, but cosplayers never try to match these. The cosplays always end up looking really vibrant and less elegant because everything is bright and the tones are mismatched. The two cosplays in your picture are definitely well made, but again would look more accurate and refined if they also replicated the tone of the color palette properly.

>40+ hours after the crash
I just read a bunch of articles and this is completely false (or a typo?) it was roughly 4 hours, which is bad enough, really, no need to sensationalize it.

The amputations in question were because of a collision. A 17 yr old girl and a 20 yr old girl both lost a leg. They were both seated in the front row. Another person in the front row had a collapsed lung, another had blood clots and liver damage. Yet another person had shattered knees. There were broken wrists etc. too. The crash happened at roughly 20 mph, a car full of passenger collided with an empty car that had been stuck on the track. The full car stalled bc it detected an incoming collision and a park employee overrode it.

Anyway, regardless of the details of the incident, this whole fucking concept /fandom is fucking cancer jfc. Like ok fanboy coasters all you want, amusement rides are really fun, but to make apologist videos personifying gross negligence is in extremely poor taste.

Neither will your kids. Trying visiting a nursing home sometime anon, see all those sad old people wondering when their kids are going to remember they exist and come visit them.

Meanwhile the old folks without kids are blowing all their money on cruises and living their lives like teenagers again.

None of my grandparents or great-grandparents ever saw the inside of a nursing home.
Stop projecting your horrible familial relations and go visit your grandparents you spoiled fuck.

The cringe at thing is you trying to shame others into behavior YOU deem to be ok. How about stop being a cunt and let people enjoy their lives

Sex work is not work, stop being a lazy whore and get a real job instead of begging for money to do porn when porn is free

I agree. People are becoming souless because of porn, it is destroying relationships and the human spirit.

>Men end up in such relationship because they are shallow and only pick partners based on appearance
But yet women will question all day long the "hot guy" who picks a fat girl or a below average woman.
