These are always my favorite panels to attend and participate in. There are two in particular I give because I'm over them but for an actual horror story I turn to AWA last year

>Very late night karaoke
>Jamming in the front near the speakers as Rei
>See a guy walk in and lock eyes with him
>Know he's bad news immediately and try to avoid looking again
>See my friend waltz in
>Assume the guy's gone but go to sit with him, just in case
>Friend walks off to get soda
>Dude pops out again IMMEDIATELY and sits one chair away from me
>Friend comes back
>FOR SOME REASON gives the guy a swig from my secret stash
>Sweating bullets and feeling more alone than ever in my life
>We leave a little later and I'm trying to contain my terror
No, nothing happened but it very much would have under different circumstances. That was the last day I ever give anyone the benefit of the doubt when they don't deserve it, and always judge books by their cover. This is my only true horror story, because the screaming meth head and the horny guy at Ikkicon are just funny in retrospect. Also worth noting I was in a blue dress for that one too. Apparently that color draws out the coomers almost immediately.

The EVA uniform-blue. All I can tell you is that two blue dresses have almost gotten me molestered twice, and in under 24 hours after putting them on. Even the far more provocative Senketsu (the uniform, not battle form) has never caused a single incident.

Like OP's image or a lot of the Kill La Kill designs from that part of the show. I'm aware some characters are designed like that but there should be a time and a place for half naked cosplays. I used to not care and I still like those type of outfits but because of people that keep their hands to themselves or half the cosplays being half asked skimpy outfits over badass ones that's had effort put in, it's just annoying. Then I get blamed and attacked for it by dumbasses just because I'm a woman and automatically "part of the problem" when I don't even wear anything like that. I'm fully aware it's never going to happen it's just wishful thinking.

>>10733176
You sound like a pickme who cares what creepy groping men think.

Or like you're envious that pretty girls get attention for mediocre cosplays while yours are better but no one notices cause you're not hot or half naked. And that's fair and makes sense, but not a good enough reason to ban revealing cosplays when the real problem is people who are perverted weirdos who thinks they can touch people without permission, and those people are already "banned"/ behavior not allowed.

[Anonymous No.10733208]

>>10733176
yes, men are coomers whose brains stop functioning when they see tits so sexy cosplays will always get tons of attention. That's not really the cosplayer's fault though, it's more of a defect within the male brain.

[Anonymous No.10733210]

Oh, boy. Day one of this thread and it's already derailed into bitter whining from authoritarian landwhales who don't even go to cons anymore anyway. Beautiful. We clearly needed more of those.

[Anonymous No.10733211]

>>10733176
I'm not sure if I get what you're saying, but things like those Kill la Kill cosplays are totally fine in my opinion. I remember when I watched Kill la Kill the first time, and I totally bought into the message of the show that you should be naked and not ashamed, and maybe, if I'd been a girl and less lazy with my cosplays, I would have done something like that. But I don't want that inspiration I felt then, the feeling of buying into the anime's propaganda, to be banned.
Also, my experience at the first cons I went to was the feeling of "you can do that?", going slightly outside of the normie rules but in a way that was still okay. You probably can't get that feeling back with how the culture has changed, but at least I don't want it to get worse.

I'm not sure what a solution could be, but maybe one possibility could be to sell fewer tickets than there are demand for? I maybe imagine coomers are less likely to sit ready refreshing the page than people who genuinely care for the con?
On the other hand I guess coomers also care, they aren't just outsiders but also part of the community so it's probably not good enough.

Naked men = funny only when they're slobby, fat and/or ugly. If they're actually fit then it's also sexy.

[Anonymous No.10733277]

>>10733265
Yeah then it's gross unless they're hot. Just like revealing fat girl cosplays, especially when the character isn't fat, are gross unless it's creative or ironic and funny.

[Anonymous No.10733281]

>>10733201
I don't see how that sounds pickme when everything I'm saying is not an attempt to appeal to men. It's mostly condemning them and thots. Not to mention I like those type of cosplays just fine as mentioned.
>>10733208
Fact is cosplay has become more about being sexy and softcore porn than about having fun with craftsmanship and enjoying the character. I'm aware of the defect and what I'm saying is it's wishful thinking of mine that it wasn't fed into and promoted. This is partially why women only spaces end up being made.
>>10733211
See my response above, that's the general gist of my comment. As for asking the anime itself to be banned, no not at all. Just the cosplays of near naked characters at conventions the same way it's banned to walk into a store or hotel normally.

[Anonymous No.10733282]

>>10733099
i'd like this, and not because i hate those characters or blame the women for wanting to look sexy. i just like my cons to be a little more family-friendly during the day. seeing kids in costume with their parents always puts a smile on my face, and when i have kids who start watching kids' anime, i'd like to take them to a con dressed up with me. i'm sure as the con crowd gets older, more people will hope for the same. i myself basically avoid most shows with ecchi or fanservice, so it's not a huge deal to me.

i know it'll never really happen since i'm the minority and most people *do* watch those types of shows. they're inevitably an inescapably big feature at cons. still, it would be nice. maybe only allowing overly skimpy cosplays in the evenings would be a good compromise.

>inb4 "kids can see some skin, it's not as a big deal as violence, amerifags are so prudish, etc"

for me, the issue isn't just the nudity itself, but the message it sends to kids: that you have to be sexy as a woman to get attention, or that only sexy women are deserving of it. i don't think i'd want my young child noticing or feeling that kind of pressure so early. but i digress.

This story in particular probably isn't true, but I have seen similar incidents happen. Had a friend in high school who was/is a really cute girl and got a lot of attention from boys. She dated a few and let them had their way with her because she thought that's what you're supposed to do. She didn't like anal but one of her bf insisted on it and kept doing it. She cried but let it happen because she thought "this is what it's supposed to be" and then men she's been with also think this way. She never called rape on these guys but it was something that ate away at her growing up and it had no affect on the men she been with because they thought it was fine. It's a pretty fucked up mindset teens go through and leads to fucked up adults.

[Anonymous No.10734188]

>>10734128
I'm not saying that it was or wasn't, just she didn't call it in comparison to the original anon's story who did. Whether you consider it rape or not, it's fucked up to think it's okay to let yourself be used and to think it's okay to continue when the other party is not into it.
>>10734159
I don't think you did anything wrong but women are in a weird spot when it comes to sexual situations.
>I don't like what he's doing but I like him, should I let him keep doing it? I don't want to ruin this.
>I don't want to be a slut either but this is supposed to be normal?
>Possible negative sexual past events
>Just in a bad place mentally at the moment
>If I tell him to stop is he going to hurt me?
Best thing to do is to talk it out with each other so you can understand what's going on. If she pulls the "it's fine." Then unfortunately there isn't much you can do but wait for her to speak about it or just be forever lost on it which sucks but happens.

Really It's between the both of you. I'm in a similar position. Not asexual but 3 times in a week every couple of months or so is my level. But the pressure to do it with your partner when they want to is complicated. All I have to say is if s/he has sex with you because they genuinely enjoy pleasing you, then that's fine. If it's more like a chore or completely unpleasant then I'm against it. But this is just an opinion of some rando on the internet.

Oh wow, someone who actually took me seriously and wasn't entirely facetious. Truly, thank you. It's not a "horror story" because he looked at me, or that I'm a "hikki autist". The fact is I felt pure malicious intent when he was on the other side of the room, and sitting next to me solidified it. Sitting there made me genuinely think "I'm getting raped tonight, and that's one of the better possible outcomes." This is coming from someone who does not cry wolf and still gets viscerally disturbed even thinking about it. So why I felt telling a Cambodian spelunker's forum about it was a good idea is beyond me.

It depends on the couple. Some fuck all the time, some don't, some have one that wants to fuck and the other doesn't so they go out and find someone else then apologize later only to do it again.

while its plain you felt uncomfortable, you've objectively given nothing remotely justifying calling it a horror story. You did give a story where your friend shared your stuff without your permission, and that resonates alot more than 'man in public place looks at me.'

That's because she's reliving some kind of sexual trauma. Communication, motherfucker. Try it and you'll learn that some folks actually want to get off on reliving those moments that fucked them up in order to help cope with the trauma.

That being said the average guy on 4chan isn't as pathetic as the fat landwhale biohole virgins on this website seem to believe. The issue is that /cgl/ /soc/ /co/ are 3 of those female boards on the website. You can tell by the post quality on them. /cgl/ in particular is full of the fattest and jelliest (I mean the food jelly and jealous) women around. They will call everything rape because no man would EVER think of approaching them, so naturally they become bitter and standoffish.

Maybe I just didn't WANT to have sex with someone who wasn't enjoying it? Assuming I'm not responding to what is in all likelihood a shitpost, for me and many I know the fun in sex is the who action and response and being adored. I do something that feels good and I can feel them feel it and it feels good in response and they perk up or moan or whatever and that just increases my arousal. Maybe I'm just weird like that but I never got the whole "sex is about power" shit cuz the power dynamic in sex can go both ways depending on perspective and most human relationship is mutual ownership rather than dominion.
