imo SJWs are people who are overly conscious of non-existent social issues and actively police people about it. generally white, tone deaf, america-centric, like the kind of people who ree about "only asians can wear qi or wa" (even though people of those countries have MORE issues with other asians wearing it) they tend to be super dumb about defending itas and trying to argue against exclusivity and "gatekeeping", which itself makes it hard to understand why they're even in the fashion.

Yeah, SJWs are people who put a lot of energy into fringe issues (that mainly effect them and people of similar social status) and not much else.
Examples of fringe issues:
Trannies in bathrooms
Video game titties, are they too big?
Nonbinary pronouns on passports
Dreads and hoop earrings
If white women opening a Mexican restaurant is OK
Sex work and why it's empowering
Cyberbullying on social media and why it effects minorities much more

Things SJWs might have a vague opinion on but generally don't talk about:
Discussion of the economy, that isnt "socialism will fix everything"
Any opinion on the Syrian civil war beyond "it's bad"
Sex trafficking
Social security
Racism in countries that aren't white western countries
Gay rights in the middle east
Animal rights
Female circumcision
Womens rights in non white western countries
Drug addiction and homelessness

As a general rule they will focus 90% of their attention on the top list and maybe 10% on the bottom list, but not have much to say about the bottom list, there's no real discussion or passion like there is for the top list.

I've been doing a good job losing weight the past month or so, but I'm a little concerned my diet might be ED tier. More than one day a week I'll have under 900 cals, usually 1,200-1,500 on others, but will succumb to binging sugary junk on the weekends. For reference I'm a ~187 lb male rugby player, so 1,200 is already pretty low for me.

I've never eaten 900 cals regularly before. The only reason I can do it right now might be because staving off the hunger gives me something to do all day.

It's OP.
It took me quite a time to figure the thing that bothers me about this. Remember this "not like other lolitas" meme. I feel like people came up with it because many of them are rather focused on feminism than lolita fashion. I just don't share this mindset. I know that I got to adjust my behaviors to be/look decent with this "new ethics", but I'm not inspired enough to care. I don't really relate the current demography of comm.

Plus, is it just me, or people has become more rude to non-minority people? Correct me if I'm wrong, because I didn't make some detailed analysis. It feels like quite a contrast between walking on nutshells here and talking "edgy" there.

There's this girl who has been posting a lot on lolita sewing collective who a) does not proofread her posts and b) clearly has no idea what she's doing, despite previous attempts to give basic advice (she had outright denied knowing something I KNOW someone directly told her).

I don't know her, I have no reason to get my knickers inna twist about it, but god, it's driving me insane. A barely-gathered mini skirt in an ugly floral with NO WAISTBAND isn't a lolita skirt-- its not even a piece of clothing. Why is she posting?

I just went through a few lolita threads here and why the fuck is it so common for anons to misunderstand each other? Like there seems to be a lot of twisting of words, being purposely vague, or getting personal when no one else was trying to get into persona stuff.

Is it just trolling? How come I don't see this kind of banter on other boards? Like I never see these types of arguing tactics on /ck/.

> who would be considered a minority or a non-minority for you?
A person that somehow doesn't fit the stereotype of typical lolita comm member. People who can't afford stuff or unable to buy it (see no-ID-verification-chan). People who's unable to wear strict rules-matching outfit due to physical conditions. Fats. Experimental outfit wearers (a bit of stretch here, but let's count them too). I don't count POC because it's not 2010 anymore, although I'm not quite sure about it.
I feel like if a person doesn't show a need in special treatment, people might not be as nice and careful around them. I might be wrong tho, I didn't really keep it up with FB comm until nearest time and I'm not really focused following them.

Plus, misrelated to the minority topic, but I still feel salty about people complaining about overrated lolita prints ets. Like I know, people may have different opinions, but idk I'd better like to be around people who appreciate or at least understands my likings, not like "misty sky is so overrated, it's just a pic of clouds".

It might have to do with pattern-seeking. The less speacial needs you are, cognatively, the more abstractly you can think about things. But the more you have to struggle with your own thought process the more you seek a pattern, or a blueprint, that makes it easy to follow along. My theory is that a lot of weeb stuff emits the conventionality of Japanese culture and to someone who finds intellectual tasks difficult this kind of conforming gives them comfort in that it's a series of patterns that if they learn they'll feel accepted. Lolita fashion has a lot of rules to it which I think these people find "comforting" in that they feel like they're more likely to suceed in getting it "right" instead of failing to grasp a much more abstract concept.

Saying you're "into anime" is literally like saying you're "into cartoons". Normies just enjoy Cowboy Bebop and Studio Ghibli the same as any other media.

this is honestly it, desu. I like anime/cosplay as a culture/medium, but I never watch the type of stuff you mention. I enjoy stuff like Ghost in the Shell. But the other aspect is I sell costume merch. Its not specifically anime related, but its usually worn at cons and other events.

Yeah and the overwhelming vast majority of Western tv shows center around copious amounts of sex, drugs and/or violence. Doesn't mean there's no good shows at all. Isn't it normal to want to make friends through hobbies? Most people who go to cons either go with a pre-existing friend group who presumably like anime as well, or they go to make friends who are into the same things as them. It's certainly a better shared interest to base friendship on than lolita, from my experience.

Its because its very satisfying to point out to other people that someone is the same poster from a previous time, you can imagine their shock and surprise and know that without making an effort to look like a different person in their writing they wont be posting again -- this helps suppress shit posters and troublemakers.

Identifying someone through little details they post on this site doesn't really tell you anything about them. Anonymity was meant to protect your real life identity not your existence as a personality..

So most times when I see people screeching "samefag" they're usually wrong and they like, don't pay attention to poster count vs amount of people in a thread either.

Also the writing thing is bullshit. I used to change up how I'd write and anons could never figure out who I was and they would confuse other anons for me.

>was meant to protect your real life identity not your existence as a personality
Except that a lot of anons here try to use evidence to prove that certain people on here.
There used to be a toxic girl in my comm who would read random shit here that had nothing to do with our comm and would like, go around telling people that anons were saying shit and we needed to witch hunt our comm to find out who was posting.

While it isn't inherently political, lolita fashion is essentially a rejection of what is considered physically attractive by the opposite sex in favor what a woman personally finds attractive to herself. Dressing up in lolita clothing is basically rejecting what interests men in favor of what she is interested in instead, which makes it a form of feminism.

My neighbors recently found out I wear lolita, and they’re super supportive. They love it and think it’s cute, which is nice. But they also want me to dress them up. My wardrobe has a decent amount of cheap pieces to warrant having another person get dolled up try for shits and giggles. But then they told their kids (10 year olds), and now they’re encouraging me to dress their children because they’d “look sooo cute in that” and that we could all have tea together. I’m not super comfortable entrusting young adolescents with my wardrobe, regardless of how cheap an item was. We all know that it’s pretty difficult to “just buy a new one” should something go wrong. Sure I have bodyline pieces they could wear, but all of mine are almost 10 years old and near impossible to replace. And to have so many people wearing pieces of my wardrobe (5 including myself), AROUND FOOD AND BEVERAGES, is most nerve racking!!

Anyway, since I’m such a codfish I digressed during the conversation and attempted to change the subject into a compromise. I didn’t say that I wasn’t cool with the kids dressing up in my stuff, but I suggested we do a princess tea party instead where the girls could wear their own dresses, and I could do hair and makeup.

I feel weird guys. Almost like a novelty now that they’ve seen me in frills. The pic is how I feel inside, exactly.

I think the issue is that they see it as basically novelty/cosplay for her (since that's what it is to them), so they don't think it's a big deal. Like a "grandma's trunk of dress up play clothes" mentality?

>>10403515
Imo if it comes up again you can say the pieces are vintage/highly collectible and have a lot of sentimental value as well, so you're not comfortable with lending them out to kids, especially involving food and beverage. If they pursue it further you should point out it's better if the kids wear their own clothes anyways in case anything happens, and then if you're feeling particularly bold give them a high-ball number in terms of the cost to replace a piece.

Hopefully it doesn't come up again, but if it does they respect your boundaries. If they can't that's a big red flag >_>"

It freaks me out that all the employees in that store are either going to be fired (because the store might be shut down) or will be too afraid to come back to work. It makes me sick to my stomach that one of the looters was a guy with airpods in his ears. It makes me want to puke that everything everyone was stealing was a luxury and not an essential need. People were piling lamps and pillows in their carts and running out with TVs. I didn't see anyone with food, water, etc.

No, just acknowledge and understand it affects people around you. I'm not blaming my friends or saying I don't want to be around them, i'm just venting about the number of friends I have with these issues and how it affects me.

Its not "I hate being around all these crazy people", its "I just want some normal friends for once". I'd like friends I can relate to, and I can't relate to people having depression, gender dysphoria, ptsd, or whatever else. Trying to find a way to relate to their problems is kinda stressful to me. I WANT to understand, but I can't.

It feels strange to see people using overly dramatic wording to describe social injustice cases. Remember that lolita lockdown bingo from ig with "stressed for local business" point. I didn't do that bingo, but if I did I'd feel embarassed to leave it empty. Do people really "stressed" as in feeling continuously worried for people they don't know? I feel like someone may be stressed of worrying for some they know, or stressed with own job, or something like that. Idk, am I that stale?

I'm mentally ill too. I'm not going to list them all out but I'm definitely not neurotypical. My advice is to learn to compartmentalize, and if you need to vent, learn who of your friends are equipped to handle it. Learn that there is a time and place for letting out steam. It's ok and it's healthy to do so, and to ask for help. But it's also healthy, in this great internet, for us all to learn to filter our daily intake and also use discretion in what we share to others, so that we each take care of our own needs.

It was doing a huge number on my health reading my friend's problems every day too until I filtered it all down to a list. I only look at it when I have the energy to, now. It lets me engage my friends in a caring way without feeling overwhelmed by their issues. I also don't share unless I know someone's ok with it.

I think we've lost something in the age of FB and Twitter where people forget that sometimes, too much information does more harm than good.

I don’t think it’s that people under 30 have significantly more mental illnesses, just that we were raised in the era of internet venting (I say we being in my late 20s, so I also get you in a way). People don’t understand boundaries and accountability because venting and sharing experiences, which is helpful in small dresses, became internet pissing contests for clout, and now it’s expected to just dump all your problems on everyone without asking first. I think us younger people need to take a look at how we handle our problems and figure out what’s productive and what’s just forcing other people to deal with our shit who never asked to

Ayrt yeah, I think you’re right. I’m in my early thirties and was adult before I got Facebook in 2006, I’ve noticed people just like 5 years younger Who had it in their formative years want to tell me aaaaaaallllllll about their problems and then expect me to bear the burden of making them feel better about it. People that I don’t even know that well, like friends of friends. They need to take responsibility for their own feelings and issues and not think that just because they put a label on it they can act like crap and you’ll pat them on the back. I know I sound crotchety.

You don’t sound crotchety, it’s true. Many of my friends are closer to you’re age and they have a more healthy concept of boundaries despite having just as many problems when you get to know them. It’s really not healthy to unload on everyone all the time, but depending on how much exposure you had to internet culture the concept of “there’s a time and place for that” just isn’t there. It’s one thing to have problems and close friendship who know/support you, it’s another to assume strangers need to take on that responsibility too.

Cause you basically want perfect people lol. Plus going to therapy just makes it better so I dunno why that'd be a bad point. Even if someone isn't mentally ill they're gonna have times where they feel shit or need your support, I read your later posts too, I get wanting 'normal' friends but you can't expect that nobody ever has any issues and if you want to be a half decent friend you should be prepared to sometimes listen to their problems. If u have mentally ill friends and that's why youre saying this, just remember its not an excuse to be a bad person (for them). Like I have multiple mental illnesses but generally anyone I randomly meet doesn't know this, and won't notice. If you have friends who are constantly burderning you despite you telling them you dont want to, or they're being mean/racist/whatever and use it as an excuse, just cut them off.

Correct.
Since there is always that one cringe thread that always posts unconventionally attractive cosplayers and labels them as cringe for not being attractive enough.
Cosplay isn't the best hobby for someone who is philosophically against lookism, too.

HOWEVER, one can still do cosplay alone for oneself and oneself only, as well for the sake of enhancing one's skills relating to clothes et al. by practicing making crafty cosplay, etc. if one is leaning towards a career in fashion, or so.
Maybe even doing it for someone special if you have one of those; though the very first special person has to be you, of course.

I'd like to clarify that I don't necessarily believe that the majority value of a cosplay comes from the attractiveness of the model. Undeniably most of the artistic value comes from the craftsmanship of the outfit, but similarly the canvas upon which it's showcased should have expectations of present-ability and discipline.
While I think a fat slob presenting themselves as a real-life depiction of a beautiful creative work is a strain on the hobby, I also hold people who outright purchase the bulk of their costume in a similar regard.

Unfortunately (or fortunately), these standards should be upheld when the essence of the hobby is paying respect to the artists who create the works and the people who hold attachments to those works.
