Today, I was at the Comic Con Lolita meetup. (Non-loli dude but I'm friends with a whole bunch of the SD local ones). It was pretty awesome, but it turns out, 3-4 dozen lolitas is apparently something that makes even SDCC stop and stare. So while they were trying to figure out just what the hell they were looking at, I was sneakily (kinda) taking pictures.

I give you: Random People Staring At Lolitas.

Most of these pictures are taken in the "amusement park" area that isn't properly part of the convention. It requires no badges or any entry fee. They had a huge Hello Kitty setup (of course) as well as Smurfs and abunch of new movies and shows and video games all running promotional stuff.

The people who actually had badges (the real nerdos) were off inside the hall.

I think a lot of the people in this thread are reading the faces wrong. When caught unawares by something unusual, you stare at it a bit to try and understand what's going on, and I daresay you adopt a severe face and don't smile until you figure out what it is (and make sure its not going to kill you, if we're going by evolutionary habits). Lolita is unusual, even amongst other cosplay.

Also. isn't a comic convention an unusual place for large amounts of lolita? While it is a fashion that can go anywhere, wouldn't it be more usual and expected at a more Japanese-y convention?

I get really tired of not the "stares" of curiosity, but the ones of ridicule. People pointing and laughing and then people taking pictures without permission pisses me off. (I believe people should always ask before taking photos b/c you never know where they'll end up)


Once some lady tried to take an upskirt shot of me, while she was with her three daughters. That's what makes me angry.

I've noticed this a lot recently too... as a heavier person and someone who has lost a lot of weight. It's motivation to work hard to get down to my goal and keep it off. I swear at my job, seeing people who look to be around a healthy size isn't as common as one would expect, especially when you begin paying attention to it.

I live in the Midwest, and I think a lot of it is general diet, income=cheap shitty food, portion sizes, people drive to get everywhere and seldom walk unless it's for leisure, which is rare because TV. I lost 60lbs by just watching my calorie intake and still ate shitty/fried food fairly often. But people are fairly mindless about it.

>>6988622
The fuck. She tried to upskirt shoot you? I'd whirl around and tell her, "M'am how would you feel if someone tried to take pictures up your skirt, or up your daughter's skirts? Yeah, don't fucking do it." The audacity and lack of thought and common courtesy in some people.

In my experience, D*Con is only different in that the crowd is older and far more relaxed than most of the anime cons I've been to. There was far less anime-related cosplay, but it's still present, far fewer people are running around and screaming like retards, and absolutely no one gave me any attitude for being young or a girl. Easily my favourite con, to the point that it's become one of the only conventions I'll actually pay to visit. You may not exactly blend in with all of the more common costumes, but there are heaps of obscure outfits running around, so no one's going to think twice about it.

This is the second year in a row I've had a bunch of negative experiences. The more mature crowd just seems burned out and jaded. People aren't half as willing to talk as they are at AX. The frat types whistling and screaming shit don't help the situation any, either.

Fat people are fine, but obese people who heavy breath and gasp while walking and are so large that their fat won't fit in a decent sized chair that seems ready to break from them being like 300+ pounds, that is when it just gets pretty awful to be around, especially if they are the type to always complain about how they aren't being "accommodated" and demand things like free extra airline seats and shit because they won't fit in a normal one.

I'm over 300 pounds and I've worked out in public. Walking is working out and low impact, right? Though I am a tall, muscular male(still fat as fuck obviously) so I can understand the social stigma that a girl at that size would have to face.

um, I'm sorry but disgusting fat people do exist.

One that really stands out in my mind was someone I frequently saw outside the income assistance office in my town. She looked about 350-400 lbs, could barely walk, was huffing and puffing and sitting down whenever she could. She had 3 children than were all normal-thin. I wonder where her welfare money went?

How did she even get enough to maintain that weight?

Anyway, I don't care if you're a fatass working out in public. But if your wheezing in a public space, and I see you all too often, and you are not losing weight or appear to be gaining. You are probably gross.

I never said disgusting fat people don't exist. Many do but not all overweight/obese people would qualify as such But I'm just saying that they are the target of everyone's scorn here. Even if they aren't that large, they get shitted on if they selfpost so most don't do it. All because someone thinks they look disgusting and won't hesitate to point it out.

Like when people call a person fat. No shit. They know that already and ridiculing them doesn't help their situation. Stick the knife in deeper and twist it, will you. Only a child thinks this is acceptable behavior.
I feel the same way about smokers with their yellow teeth and smelly clothes and hair but I tend to keep my comments to myself.

Honestly I feel that the whole "ermegerdd disgusting fatties~" is only on tumblr and cgl. MAYBE the occasional facebook tough guy. I never hear people spout this asinine shit irl.
Especially when people generalize about obesity. Everyone thinks you need to be a 300 pound landwhale that can't move to be considered obese. Not to mention that your diet must consist of sucking down liters of soda and wheelbarrows of twinkies. Or that you've never exercised consistently at all.
At 5'3 and 240 pounds I was considered obese. However my entire life I've never been horribly picked on for my weight, never have been called gross out in public, or was never complimented on how I dressed. I've never had problems getting boyfriends, being social, finding clothes that flatter me (although I wish I had more variety), health problems, or any other of this supposed bullshit fatties are supposed to get for being fat. I fit in my own bus seat, I can fit an airplane seat with room to spare for my purse, and I can fit into seats for roller coasters.

And I've lost a bit of weight recently (I'm now back down to 215 pounds) but even then I still don't get shit for it even though I'm still obese. I mean if you're out in public and you stink, you're out of shape, and you look unkept in general I don't think your body weight will make a difference. I'd still avoid a smelly crackhead regardless if they're overweight or not.

You must not work in a place with a majority of fat people. That said, the vast majority of 'fat people' are like any other person - most are decent and nice, but some try to pull what the SJW people do, which is unfortunate because honestly it has less to do with less being fat and more with their horrendous personalities which you can find in anyone, not just fat people.

I can't stand these kind of people. Hell, when my mother was obese(she lost the weight), she never once screamed about fat shaming or asked for special privileges because of her size. The only time I ever saw her use an electric scooter was when she broke her ankle. If we did amusement parks or other outings she walked. You know what my mom did if theater seating was too small, she stayed home and didn't complain to the theater because she knew it wasn't the theaters fault for her weight.

The only person who used a wheelchair was my grandma when we did an amusement park with a lot of hills.

One of my favorite work moments was when one of the 'jousting' teens broke a cart. Our security officer took him into the holding room where we took shoplifters. The kid was acting tough-shit the entire time, saying "Fuck the police." and "I don't give a fuck."
Security called his parents, told them they had to pay a few hundred dollars to replace the cart. Dad and mom yell at him and he's suddenly crying like a bitch and begging them not to ground him.

/cgl/ and I think the internet in general can be pretty vicious when it comes to the fatties. But IRL, people are generally too chicken to say that shit to anyone's face.

I got all sorts of shit for being a fat cosplayer (old pictures of me occasionally crop up in threads here) and at my highest weight, I was 215. Though said pictures are usually around the 180-190 range. I'm at 150 now, and looking in the mirror, I see the difference and I really don't look all that fat now, just a bit more to lose. My goal is 130. Right now, I look healthier than most of the people coming into my store, I'm sure I won't be excluded from being called a "disgusting fatty-chan" in the future on here or BTB. Hell, I self-posted in one of the last plus sized lolita threads when it was being raided by /fit/ and got all sorts of nasty comments about needing so much fabric (when I barely stretch the shirring on my brand dresses made a size 6). Little do they know, I lift and work out at home (I can't make it to a gym very often at all, but I do what I can), I also unload trucks and frequently lift 40-60lbs all the time in succession on a daily basis at work, and I'm aiming for a fit body. I'm actually quite strong and in relatively good shape, albeit with a little body fat to lose.

Come to think of it, I've only ever been called fat online. Usually the fat comments come from dudebros and neckbeards who are trying to make themselves feel cool (as if I want your nasty cheetos-covered wang), or girls who know no other insult aside from fat and assuming that fat is the worst thing you can call another female.

When I tell people I'm working on losing weight, they're surprised because they swear I'm not 300lbs and don't need to do it. For that matter, I was considered obese at 175lbs.

It's not. I was fat as a child and got tormented on a daily basis. From people my age and adults. I'm chubby now and still get shit, but not as much, but from the time I was about 10 until I was 20 or so and lost a lot of the weight, it was pretty bad.

I got shit in high school for it, but hey, it's fucking high school and everyone is brutal to each other during that time. Sorry you were tormented though, that really sucks.

I admit there's been other instances where my weight was called out on, but usually when things were heated and people just say mean shit just to be mean. Like breakups. The only other time it's been unprovoked since I was out of high school was in my college anime club funnily enough. Yeah, the VP and a few of her friends thought 4chan was their personal circlejerk and that they could call their 'friends' names like hambeast. I found out through a mutual friend that they were calling me and other club members awful names. I raised hell when I found that out though, and of course they denied saying that behind our backs while they chewed out the mutual friend for telling me the details.

Then you must think the general public are shitty people. Whether you like it or not, that's how things work in the real world. Everyone is shallow to some degree, and there's nothing wrong with it. That's why first impression is important, there's a lot to tell about the person's lifestyle from their appearance. If you want people to respect you, you have to respect yourself first.
