Makes me kinda sad; I've got a large cup size but am not fat and I was hoping that the bigger sizes would make the fit of some brand better, but the new bigger dresses are just drafted for square bodied obese B cups or taller flat chested people at best, not average sized people with bigger bust measurements.

I'm starting to get really into lolita fashion, and at this point I feel like I have a big enough wardrobe that I should pump the brakes, but on the other hand, I'm feeling down about my lace not matching. I didn't know about the advice of picking one base color, so I split between 3 to try and compare (white, ivory, black). Now I know I prefer white as my base. I wish I had magically known that earlier and had more variety of white lace socks rather than a variety of colors but less choice of lace per color. Not sure whether to double down on all 3 colors and get more matching accessories in all colors, only get more white accessories and let the other colors gather dust in a corner, or stop buying any more and resign to wearing tulle lace, torchon, and raschel lace together.

P.S. Why the fuck did I get cardigans and hair accessories with ivory lace on them? They are beautiful, but now I can only match them with ivory lace blouses and socks.

Aww what a bummer.

I think the hardest part is thst because so many dresses have princess seam on the bodice they're fitted but squish you around if your proportions are not exactly that of a chubby Japanese girl and if you're smaller you end up swimming in things.

Fuck this is why I miss full shirring JSKs, Then they'd at least be fitted and stretch in where they need to and out if you're bustier.

And fatties can wear it too, so everyone wins unless you're buying secondhand from someone obese but replacing elastic isn't thst hard if it's the nice kind with separate channels sewn into the bodice.

I wish brands would release more full shirring JSKs and OPs for prints or at least some patterns. That would solve some sizing problems and it can still look really pretty if done nicely (ex: Melty Berry Princess OP is adorable, one of the hugest fitting brand pieces for fatties but also good if you just have big shoulders or chest and small waist because the neck area stretches, and it's a very popular piece/print...I hope they'll do a rerelease of the whole series sometime, since it had smaller cut OP and the JSK too).

Yeah, but did they say anything about that? All they said was that people already die every day, implying there's no need to be upset or have any tact about this current situation. It reflects ignorance, insensitivity and at worst entitlement if they truly believe that people should be putting themselves at risk in order to get them their cosplay or frilly Japanese clothes to them right this second. What I don't understand is why you're trying to defend them so bad. Do I think people are allowed to be upset about this? Yes.

The enzymes or whatever that tell your uterus to break down your uterine lining sometimes pass through the thin wall between uterus and anus and begin breaking down your poo at a faster rate which is why you poo or have diarrhea so much on your period. I assume the same happens with farts.

Growing up I always had incredibly low self esteem regarding my look to the point that I believed I was too genuinely ugly for any kind of relationship, and spent a lot of time isolated.

Wasted a lot of years with a shithead, then wasted even more feeling ugly and unworthy to the point of isolation. I know I can't help at all, but at least know that you aren't alone.

My mother-in-law and my grandmother really like each other from the one time they met. My MIL loves it when I wear lolita and is super supportive, and she asked if she could send a picture she took of me to my grandmother. I said yes. Later that week I got a call from my grandmother who was visiting my parents, she was tipsy and laughing and telling me how I looked amish and I shouldn't wear that because I looked ridiculous. And I cried for like an hour after the call. I got over it, I know I dress weird and it's not for everyone, but I love my grandmother and we've always been close, and I've never had someone I loved laugh at me about something so special to me. It really hurt. But today I spoke to my mom and she told me how my father was very stern in telling her off. My dad's not an especially emotional guy and he really just never mentions my lolita hobby, so it was special to know he supports me in his own way. Does that make sense?

A lot of those around me with families aren't terribly happy in them, some even have broken families or abusive partners, kids with disabilities that make life really hard on everyone, etc, and tell me they are envious of my position and wish they could focus on whatever they want in life.

And of the remaining maybe 5% genuinely look above average levels of cute.

nayrt but yeah, I mean, lolitas follow this general curve of most of them not looking that great, if not even moreso because it's an alt fashion and attracts nonconventional looking people.

It depends, get rid of the acne, you can use a dry on face mask, I recommend something with charcoal. Biore tends to make a pretty good one.

If you have a gross face though sometimes you might just be a lost cause. Eye positioning is important and having a horse face is just a turn off as well.

Its okay anon, I'm used to working with people less intelligent.

You see a relationship is built on multiple aspects, one is just sexual interest. This is where looks come into play, and is arguably the first hurdle that is able to be cleared. This is where dating begins, when 2 people see each other and determine they're attracted to one another.
This is the easy phase, one in which I myself am able to get through without much issue.

The second and more important aspect is how well your personalities mesh together. You might be attracted to one another, but they might behave in ways you don't like, they might just be horrible people, or maybe you're just no on the same wavelength regarding what you want out of a relationship.
Unfortunately this is where most relationships tend to fail for me, after dating for awhile it is quite clear that most women aren't able to perform in a satisfactory way on a day to day basis. Naturally, I give them help criticism and support, but if a girl doesn't improve, its time to move on. Hence, why one would be between relationships.

I suffer from pretty severe OCD/Panic Disorder and Depression, I’ve self harmed and had an eating disorder the vast majority of my life. In my mid 20s I went from anorexia to emotional eating and gained 60lbs. Though I’ve lost at least 30 I find myself disgusting, especially when I can’t fit into brand. Coming here for nearly 10 years has utterly terrified me of other Lolitas and I’ve never actually worn my dresses outside for fear of being laughed at by normies and sneered at by other Lolitas, called fat, etc.

Got diagnosed with Tuberculosis and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever last year within months of each other, while I’m well now I’m left with Chronic Fatigue on top of things.

Back when "weeaboo horror story" threads were popular I got caught up with this terrible group of weebs and legitimately had a traumatizing time.
I shared so many stories about this particular group, that cgl was curious as to who I could possibly be, so with the information I provided they *tried* to dox me.. for no other reason than the fact I slipped up and mentioned I experienced sexual abuse in one story and they found that laughable.

I really don't miss how terrible cgl was, and I'm sort of glad no one shares screencaps of my stories anymore.

Nah, it isnt. Lolitas made this board less fun, but back then it was all drama and no discussing cosplay. Doxxing was like a sport and Moot came in on several occasions to tell everyone to calm down. In response, staminarose and eventually lolcow was created. Staminarose was a shitshow and lolcow now is suprisingly tame compared to old cgl. Cgl was truly terrible then. After the horribles went to their containment site, it was fun until cgl community event and commission threads stopped existing for the most part.

I really hate how the lolita community freaks out over sex, but only in the context of outside views of the fashion. The whole "we've worked so hard to be an innocent fashion" thing seems SO obsessed over repressing sex that it reads poorly. Individual lolitas are not responsible for the entire community. If someone want to wear the fashion or pieces badly or with sexual styling, that's on them. Fetishishing innocence is still a fetish.

Is there anything that’s both not inherently sexual, and not constantly sexualized by everyone? Like for instance, lolita isn’t inherently sexual, but most people who see it assume it’s a fetish, so that doesn’t count. Though people think literally anything unusual is a fetish. But even if something isn’t unusual, it’s still sexualized. I don’t think what I’m looking for exists

Obsessing over modesty and not being sexualized inherently engages with sexuality as the opposite end of the dichotomy. Villainizing something doesn't make it magically go away.
I think the community would be a lot happier if lolitas found satisfaction in wearing the fashion itself, rather than trying to control the way everyone else wears or sees it. People are always going to wear the style or pieces in poor taste. But lolitas shouldn't worry about how the community is perceived externally. That is a recipe for disappointment.

the fashion is always going to have a focus on sexual modesty. you sound kind of young or naive to me if you think that external perception isn't important, it definitely is. you also sound particularly upset that people don't want to be actively associated with fetish. there's nothing wrong with destroying misconceptions. while i agree that some people can be overzealous, the idea that trying to remove sexuality from something somehow makes it taboo and therefore a fetish is dumbass. of course people are going to wear whatever they want and do whatever they want, and that's fine, it's always been fine and always will be, but wearing something or doing something doesn't make you part of the community. and again, that's fine, you don't have to participate in lolita to like the clothes or wear the clothes or anything, but by not actively participating correctly, you aren't really participating in it.

Conversely, I think it's grossly naive to think that normies will ever perceive lolita as anything other than weird and probably sexual. It's unfortunate, and if I had a preference I would love to get rid of that, but I can't. What bugs me is how much lolitas worry about normie opinions. We could kick out every sissy and ddlg weirdo, and outsiders would still think the worst just based on the clothes themselves. I'm sick of all the pearl clutching that goes on over the public opinion of the fashion. Negative public opinion shouldn't matter to a lolita who really wears it for herself.
If I walk down the street in a full coord, I guarantee someone is going to think something awful about me and my style. But I don't have to engage with that person or those thoughts, and I can just enjoy wearing the fashion for my own reasons. A lot of lolitas seem really insecure, and I've seen too many who can't shake off a rude remark or the possibility of someone thinking something mean about them.

Creepy is those older people who skulk around trying to talk to all the young girls. Just don't single people out. It's not really creepy if someone younger approaches you first or people in a group you're speaking with happen to be younger. Also, if someone's got a really good cosplay or happens to be cosplaying a more obscure character or series you like, there's nothing creepy about noting so.

And I think it's more prominent with Americans. In Japan especially, and maybe some of Europe except maybe U.K. public transit, even if someone thinks poorly of your dress, they're polite enough not to make a scene or it's customary to just keep walking.

I'm feeling you anon. I have at least $2k worth of items either already shipped, or were supposed to ship soon from Japan. I want to understand the "4 months" estimate more. It went from "delayed 2-3 weeks" to 4 months and I'm trying to let this wash over me so my anxiety doesn't ruin me for the next 120 days.

A lot of anons are saying there are other shipping options, but honestly it's only a matter of time before those are affected too, and I personally don't want to deal with an unfamiliar process. I'm not so bothered about having stores hold my pieces, it's the ones that were already shipped that I'm worried about.

shell out the big bucks and go with UPS/Fedex/DHL. They have their own transport fleets and don't give a fuck. Japan Post goes on normal passenger planes which, since there's no demand, are now nonexistant. It's going to cost a lot, yeah, but if you want your stuff, that's what you're looking at

I'm so happy, I can fit into a jsk I couldn't fit into before. This is the motivation I need to reach my goal. Just 15 more lbs and I'm set.

Finally snagged a nice blouse in a color I have been searching for for a while. I know it is useful to have different colored blouses but I often come across such beautiful white or cream blouses that I just keep buying them and my wardrobe isnt as diverse as it could be. So im happy to finally extend my color range more.

For things that have already been shipped, I can't change the courier. Most have been in the Japan Post system since the first week of April, so unless then get returned, I'm pretty sure they are still pushing those orders through (I actually had one order show up in the US today before the announcement). I don't mind waiting for the other orders while shops hold them. I don't really want to deal with another unknown during all of this, especially if the shops themselves aren't offering these shipping methods.

if you SAL'd them they will get returned. I had something sent SAL end of March and thought it snuck out. Nope, two weeks later it was RTS and according to the sender all their packages (hundreds/thousands) are currently stuck at their local post office

Rent a shipping address somewhere (there are plenty of those, try Qwintry or Shipito or simply google "shipping address")
From that shipping address you send it to your home.

You don't get that attention when have mental illness unless you talk with other people who have mental illness. Neurotypicals will always try to "catch you" faking the illness because they think you're just lazy.

Maybe that's why lolitas and cosplayers like to talk about mental illness, there aren't any other groups you can bring it up with

If that's really how normies think I don't want to be on this Earth.

What the fuck? Who would fake having an invisible, debilitating condition like depression, bipolar disorder, or anxiety ?

[Anonymous No.10380198]

You clearly weren't around the internet in the mid-00s, people were faking bipolar like there was no tomorrow.

Look, I'm mentally ill, I know a lot of people who are mentally ill, but you're either dumb or incredibly naive if you think some people on the internet aren't lying about their illnesses. Or they've self-diagnosed and think that's good enough.

We're not talking about people on the internet, and a lot of people around me did not have access to the internet in that period of time. Only people in the cities had it.

Congratulations on learning what munchausen is. I don't think those people are necessarily created, some people just naturally crave excessive amounts of attention than normal.

Reddit speak for dudes. Scroteposter most likely comes from Reddit's Female Dating Strategy section or some other femcel subreddit.

Tired post here, but every con getting cancelled really has gotten to me. I was living con-to-con, and I don't know what to do with my time if I'm not going to get to wear cute cosplays at events.
Tried going to an online meeting but it really wasn't the same.

NAYRT Lolcow is the "too bitchy for 4chan" containment site created after moot told cgl they need to calm down and gave out more rules to try to lessen drama/doxing on this board.
Lolcow is filled with legbeards who bitch about lolcows.. but are also terribly cringy themselves.

I don't think this is true. Most people will pretend to feel bad for you if you talk about having depression in anxiety. They might inwardly think you're an attention whore (and they may be right, depression is essentially "I feel bad for no reason and if you're mean I might kill myself", and a LOT of extremely normal people think they have depression because they feel nebulously dissatisfied or undermotivated and they're vulnerable to the Forer effect. Anxiety is practically a trend right now as well). But people aren't very confrontational for the most part and they'll probably try to be supportive.
