Hey /cgl/, quick question.

Most of my friends are male as I don't really get along with other females, and they're mostly into anime/manga and /co/ stuff, so they've been kinda of pushing me to cosplay for a while as they regularly attend cons.

The thing is, given that I don't really get along with other girls, or have female friends, is it really a good idea for me to start going to cons? I've heard some pretty, well, bad things about the sorts of girls who go to cons (a lot of it from other guys admittedly), so I'm just curious about whether it's a good idea to attend.

Have you tried? Anyway, cosplay isn't something you should be 'forced' into, seeing as how it's a time and money consuming hobby.

And what do you mean, 'should you go to cons'? Do you mean 'will it be fun?' or are you implying cons are dangerous? It's not very different from any other gathering or event.

Guy here, as a male I'd like to say I disagree with OP's premise all women are bitches, but also disagree with the rest of the shit ITT. Some women just prefer our company, a lot of the time because we're more passionate about hobbies and things in general, and we make girls feel more welcome.

Yeah, keep saying that. Basing the entirety of girls and female friendships based purely on what you see on /cgl/ is like basing the entirety of males and male relationships on /r9k/ and /v/.

Those who have acclimated to the real world will readily tell you that friendships are based on an individual case by case basis. You don't keep toxic friends and a good person will be a good friend irregardless of their gender.

anonymity makes everyone turn into a raging jackass for the most part, not just women so I'm not sure where you're going with that line of thinking.

There is nothing wrong with preferring the company of one sex over the other. There really isn't. It's the rotten attitude that often goes with it that rustles peoples jimmies. You can't possibly know every girl, it makes you sound stupid and catty and bitchy (all those things you supposedly hate) when you say all girls are bitches and that's why you won't have anything to do with them.

It's so hard to maintain a strict friendship between a male and female friendship. Too many times have my male friends confessed their feelings for me.

And our plans actually involved more clothing options. We have to recreate costumes for the guys and have them act out romantic scenes of favorite fanfiction. Since neither of us are into PWP, it'll be more gushy than sexual.

Different anon, I typically get urked over this "special gurrl" mentality too but actually that's a pretty valid thing. I have a healthy balance of guy and girl friends but a guy I grew up with and was best friends with ditched me cause a 15 year old mega slut (she moved out at 16 to live and have sex with 2 college guys on multiple occasions, on top of banging my best friends friend while they were dating) he was sleeping with at 18, felt threatened by our friendship.

I blame both parties involved in all honesty. The situation just showed me the priorities of a male to female relationship, bro's before ho's can't really apply with ho's before ho's. I can somewhat chalk his behavior up to teenage hormones and a virgin finally getting some, but that only goes so far you know? Anyways there will always be sluts in the world and always will be sexually deprived men, because of that factor and many others, guy to girl relationships are damn near impossible to keep genuine.

If your only friends are guys it generally means you have a terrible personality and are therefore incapable of making friends unless they are people who hope to one day bang you.

I know in amurica ya'll laugh at the idea of guys getting raped but, that friend was a virgin and a bro who would not have done that on his own terms to his friend. When she moved on to sleep with other guys me and de-virginized bro talked a lot about it and the guy to this day has major trust issues and fears of intimacy. I'd like to say "Mega Slut" was just being a naive child but from mutual friend sources all I've heard is that she's become an even shittier adult, and by her actions she clearly understood what the fuck she was doing to everyone. Next time anon, before you get into a feminazi "ALL GURLZ ARE INNOENCET, ITS THE MAAAN THAT RAPPES THEM, AND RAPE CULTURE DEFENDS THE MAAAN" bullshit you should really get your facts straight.

I hate to break it to you, tumblr-friend, but they're not children anymore after they reach puberty. This is a basic fact that applies to the entire animal kingdom. There have been attempts[1][2] to ad-hoc prove that "teenagers brains are inferior", however, the unfortunate truth is that they still remain behaviorist theories and nothing more. There's no underlying biological proof that their cognitive capacity is hampered. The "serious researchers" just take the fact that the majority of teenage individuals behave a certain way and they offer their explanation for it -- it's not their fault, it's not their parents fault, it's all genetics. If this reminds you of certain movements[3][4], that are getting increasingly popular these days, you are quite correct.

Let's look at "fat acceptance", in example. "They" have also recently conducted a research that found out that overweight / obese children have a tendency to eat much more than thin / healthy children because their taste buds are inferior. They are now proposing that this is all genetics, so it's not really the fat kids' fault that their becoming fat -- they simply *need* to eat more to get the same satisfaction from eating as the thin kids too.

As you see (at least I hope that you do), there is an another explanation for this. The researches in both cases have decided that "correlation == causation"; that both abnormal behaviors are actually just genetics and the individuals who were displaying said behavior could do little to nothing about it. But what if the fat kids have worse taste buds *because* they've been overeating for years already, so they slowly wore out as time passed? What if overeating to begin with was the cause of that, and the worsening of taste is just a logically expected slippery slope of obesity? And, in the same vein, what if irresponsible teenagers are irresponsible individuals in general?

Lolita reporting in. I just want to share a tidbit of information I gathered from a recent Anime Convention.

There are a /cgl/ meetup planned for after the convention on Saturday night. This meetup information was only on /cgl/ it wasn't just some general "4chan meetup" because the title was specifically '/cgl/ meet 2013' or whatever. I arrive to only find a sausage fest. There were literally maybe five other girls there? And about 12 guys.

This leads me to suspect that /cg/ isn't some catty board filled with bitches. There is certainly a possibility that men come on here to 'troll'. Because I can't tell you how many immature fuckwads think they are lulz besttrolleva and just do it on their spare time.

>>6830081 said IT's alright to get along better with one sex over the other. It's also okay to prefer one sex over the other. It's not okay to insult and judge an entire gender and hold yourself above every single girl in existence.

There's no reason for you to not get along with other girls, because chances are there are a bunch of other girls who are exactly like you, and you just don't know because you don't bother to talk to them.

First off, stop that 'i don't like girls' attitude because it'll damage so much in the future and start talking to everyone, you'll make a lot more friends and find out that there are girls who are cool to be around.

Secondly, a lot of Con attenders are female, and i'm sure if you're going with a group of guys(That hopefully you trust) that they'll be around to help you out if you get into any situations.

And if you go, take is as an opportunity to make some female friends.
