my community is full of elitists who make fun of people for liking anime and not owning brand.
"everyone that likes anime is a fucking obsessed creeper"-says the girl who has a literal shrine of mana in her house
"if you aren't wearing brand, you might as well not wear lolita at all. bodyline is mass produced and looks like shit, and we all know fanplusfriend sells nonprint replicas."

I have been to only two meetups.. but its apperantly always like this. I felt so uncomfortable there.

I know who you are, and you are not the only one who felt uncomfortable at those meet-ups. Imagine it from our perspectives.
Get a job, a life and a car. You are way too old to entertain these childish fantasies of 'designing your own lolita clothing' while living like a parasite off've your parents--especially when you know nothing about the fashion outside of your ebay-quality anime cosplay. Frankly, you don't belong in a lolita comm. I'm not sure you even know what lolita is. Beyond that, you're taking two instances of behavior from people who are known to be the extremists of the community and judging the entire group en masse by their behavior. You're a bitch, and I regret the time wasted making your acquaintance and the effort taken to ignore your blatant weeaboo blundering out of pity.
Also, your attempts to be cute by going 'nya' at random intervals are childish and incredibly tiresome.

I'm sorry to point out the obvious, but all Lolitas are weeby to an extent. Nobody 'accidentally' stumbles upon the BSSB website, y'know? It takes a certain (quite high) level of otaku interests to pay attention to Japanese fashion subcultures and read about each of them individually AND become so immersed into it that you JUST NEED to look like that too. Not to mention that listening to J-rock/Visual Kei and worshiping Mana or other Japanese artists doesn't exactly help lolitas break away from that 'weeaboo' title.

I'm an /a/non first and a lolita second however I feel at every meet up I've gone to before I've never mentioned how much of a huge fujoshi I am. The meets I've gone to so far have been nice though there's a meet coming up that I think their ideas of what to do are pretty stupid and one person suggested a place then says how terrible the place was to attend later in comments. I may just not go to the meet if they pick someone thing and just go to a Big Lebowski screening instead.

There's a few other events happening in the community but I'm just not going because I have no interest in sitting around drinking tea. On the other hand I've met some lovely girls though at a few of the bigger events I've felt like I've put on a slight persona as to not make everyone think I'm a creepy /a/non in nice clothing. Mostly everyone is really well dressed at the ones I've been to before too which I love. I put a lot of effort into my co-ords and I love looking fabulous with a bunch of other good lolitas.

I haven't gone to a meetup yet and the next one has been planned by a creepy weeb so it's probably not happening, once again.

Actually, I did just stumble onto lolita fashion. I wasn't interested in anime or manga, I was only interested in unique fashion. I've always been interested in clothes or fashion, and so started googling stuff. I found japanese street fashion by doing this, and then lolita. Still don't really have any interest in Japanese culture, don't know any japanese, don't know any animes except for what I've seen here and there on tv. So yeah, no weeb here.

I hate it. I have been to about 3 meetups in my area and swear never to do another with these girls. I mean, they really try ~ the community has leveled up from ebay and milanoo to taobao and bodyline.

Not all lolis are. There are a fair number (mainly classic or gothic lolis) who came to the fashion from non weebish areas. One of my best loli friends HATES Japan.

My comm is lovely, but the girls who have tea parties and meets regularly are at an entirely different age and stage to me; those who are at the same age/stage have all left the community and don't bother with meet ups.

and on top of that we have our OWN pedophile brolita who jizzes his pants every time he puts on his dress, and is currently trying to hit on this 14 year old girl.

They like to blame everyone else "oh no, this community was perfectly fine until so-n-so started drama" no. the community is bad, and will always be bad. because they have shitty attitudes.

OK. But believe it or not, you're the only one(s) with the drama women. This post was more for "HEY MAYBE YOU SHOULD GIVE IT MORE THAN TWO CHANCES....3 YEARS AGO."

Also I will add one girl outed herself in all of these threads by posting their tumblr and also was the one who started the rumor of "EVERYONE HATES ANIME." So singling out is done on the basis of her being the ONLY one that experienced it.

Local from this comm. The first time I ever came to a lolita meet-up in this city, I was wearing all off-brand. The closest thing I had to owning actual lolita brand was Bodyline. I have no idea where you're getting this 'snotty to noobs' thing. Everyone was perfectly civil towards me, complimentary even. Since then I've expanded my wardrobe and become friends with several of the members of the comm, so I really think that this sounds like some kind of personal problem on your behalf, not the rest of the comm.

Also, why are you so offended by this one girl's 'shrine'? So she has a collection of Mana's merchandise. Other people collect video game paraphernalia or limited-edition vinyls or anime figurines. She works hard to be able to afford to support her hobby; honestly, I think that's pretty admirable.

PROTIP: learn to reject men before they get to the point of admitting nasty secrets to you. It's obvious you were too socially awkward to push him away. The fact that you know what he's currently doing means you enjoy leading men on and getting favorable attention.

Honestly, the accusations made are untrue or outdated for most. You're the one who sounds bitchy. Nice facade. You sure like to pretend that you're a sweet girl, but you go out and judge more than anyone else does.

>> No.6421601

>my simple solution for those in the midsouth comm that don't like their comm shitalked about:
-nip those bitchy attitudes in the bud, if you see someone else being a bitch, change the subject, and if that doesn't work, call them out on it.
-stop the replica shaming. Its one thing to replica shame in your own time, but another to replica shame when someone is wearing a replica right next to you. this girl that wore the replica is wanting to leave lolita because of you girls. (replicas are bad but that was pretty damn bitchy of you)

its not that hard.

There's one girl in my comm who kind of ruins it for everyone. She plans everything and think she runs the comm because she plans everything, going so far as to delete comments and when people say anything remotely criticizing about a place she picked she takes it as a personal attack. She has to make it about her all the time and jokes how she likes attention and buying brand for status but everyone knows it's not a joke. Her bf pushed a girl at a meet (another girls birthday party that she was forced to make a joint birthday party because her birthday happened to fall on the same day) which ripped her stockings and she couldn't even apologize, she just laughed. Then she got everyone to ditch her when she went to the bathroom. She acts like she knows everything and is really condescending to people. She tries to get all the new people Under her wing and if theyre weeby or not good dressers, she drops them. I've wanted to make a secret about it but I don't want to deal with the bad karma that comes from it, so I just hold it all in :/

I'm so sad because my comm has a great combo of factors - everyone dresses pretty well, we're all over 18, most girls are cuties, the brolitas are superb, people are nice, not too many flakes - except for the one or two bad apples that ruin everything.

One girl has a severe case of pseudologia fantastica (pathological lying) and constantly tries to pick off girls, especially new ones, to be in her private lolita comm. Another girl is just very socially awkward, but the kind that talks way too loud and too much instead of being shy. I don't want to exclude these people since I feel for them (they both complain of being lonely) but it's hard to gently let people know they need to chill out.

This, there's behind-the-scenes drama but everyone's very welcoming to newbies and pretty sweet. I joined this summer and I was stunned by all the great coords a lot of Chicago lolis have. It can be cliquey but once you find a few friends it's easy to talk to anyone. A lot of the Milwaukee lolitas like to come down for bigger events too which is fun.

It's probably not the same comm, but I would suggest trying to listen to other people's conversations a bit more instead of going off on things that don't interest others, don't talk about things that are too personal, and try to modulate the volume of your voice to match the rest of the group. Old habits die hard, but try to step back from yourself a little and think "am I being annoying right now?

>> No.6422426

I left my comm because everyone were sheep.
If they were upset about something, they said it to each other, but not to the person in question.

Even though they might have been very upset by something someone did or said, they wanted to stay 'in' with the group. I spoke up about it one day, and found I was being invited less and less to meet-ups because I was 'rocking the boat'

Most of the girls I met were little more than Girl-Fashion equivilants of Anime Guy Nerds. Little self confidence, obssessive about something alternative culture, bizarre and awkward conversations. Of course they looked lovely, but thats where their niceness ended.

Several of them got drunk at a party one night, it was not a pretty sight, it felt like they were just spoiled self absorbed brats waiting to get out. I can understand why so many of them have had failed relationships now.

My comm has Hildekitten.

>> No.6422433

Most of my local comm is actually pretty good but there are a few girls who, often don't go to most meet ups (because they feel like they're above them), yet think that they're somehow the queen bees and the pioneers of fashion in our city. Despite the fact that they both have no fucking decent co-ordinating skills. One makes her own clothing and is fucking colour blind (pairs green wigs and shit with pastel blue dresses and thigh-high mint boots, dafuq?) and insists that brand is shit, while the other pines over brand but always pairs it up with ugly off-brand crap and tries to put a cyber punk or raver spin on everything.

The sucky thing is that many newbies seem to pander to them, despite the fact that they're giant walking vaginas who do nothing but talk down about EVERYONE who actually does attend meet-ups. I always hate when they RSVP yes, I pretty much never go to anything they go to.

Other than those two though, everyones pretty lovely actually.

When you're talking to her on her own, she's actually quite friendly. But in group, ugh. She's constantly jabbering about her Japanese friend this, Japanese friend that, J-Rock bands, Dr. Who, etc etc. Overall dealing with her goes well until someone snaps a picture of her without her permission. That's when hell breaks lose.She snapped on some kid's parents because the kid took a pic of the forest and she happened to be in there. It was so, so embarrassing when she started harping on that poor kid and his parents. At conventions she also keeps people from taking pics when we are taking a group shot because her husband is the ~*photographer*~ and the others should just gtfo. wat

tldr; nice face to face, but actually a huge bitch.


I just don't want to deal with her anymore. I'm seriously considering semi-leaving the community because she practically took over the comm and I'm sick of putting up with her. The only reason I'm staying is because the one who used to be in charge is such a sweetheart and genuinely trying to do her best for the comm.

Just because you share a similar interest doesn't mean you get along.

Although there are quite a few nice people in my community (whom I've met to sell/buy ), I would not go to a meet-up. I would hate to bump into people I know. Honestly, I would just be ashamed.

It sounds so embarrassing. I totally get not liking candid pictures of yourself, but if you're out in public dressed like a weirdo you have to accept that it can happen.

Yeah, there are good Lolitas. Some of them hang out by themselves now because Hildekitten's been a total dick to them but some of them just keep up with it and try to make it fun anyways. Also, a lot of the great Lolitas that are known online are from the French part, and we don't really have a lot of meets with them, sadly.

And it is so so embarrassing. She once started cursing very loudly to some tourists who snapped a picture of us when we were posing for a group shot. Some lolitas had to walk away a little because they were too shocked and embarrassed and didn't want to be associated with her. As for the candid shots, I don't know, she's always a bit derpy so meh.

They called the con chair a faggot and other shit when he tried to defuse the situation, and pretty much told the fashion show coordinator to not even bother and just invite girls from the LA and other communities that were near by

I messaged the mods of that comm about Lara's thread, they messaged me back but I don't think they did anything about it. I was talking with one of my friends about it and she said to give Lara the benefit of the doubt and that it was probably Adriane since Lara told her she was at the museum that day so she couldn't have possibly posted it, (she just flat out asked her after we talked about it) but if you know her you know how manipulative she can be. It's bullshit noone cared she tried to scam people, or that she kept throwing her friend under the bus, or kept making secrets, or bragged about lying about the condition of a pair of shoes.
