Because harassment happens to all genders. But guys get the short end of the stick when it comes to cosplay and consent.I intend to change this. Even if it’s a small change.

Flighting the concept on my personal page, so let me know what you guys think? You’re more than welcome to inbox me your experiences as a male cosplayer, you’ll stay anonymous.

Borrowed from THE INTERNET:

• Avoid using degrading language.  This applies to Expo social media as well.  Commenting on someone’s body in a way that is derogatory is considered sexual harassment and our convention won’t stand for it.  
• Rape jokes, or jokes that are marginalizing to someone, are not funny. Please don’t make them, and if you feel that you have been the subject of such harassment, please come forward to Expo staff so that the issue can be dealt with confidentially.
• Always be respectful of someone’s physical space. It can be pretty close quarters at the Expo during peak hours, but that’s no excuse for inappropriate behavior.
Finally, perhaps most importantly…
• Always remember – we are ALL people.  Gender, age, ethnicity, orientation notwithstanding – we are each individuals who deserve to be treated as such.  

*This is a non profit project done out of the love for people.

All of this is unacceptable

Seriously, no one should put up with harassment; not guys or girls!

I’ve seen plenty of posts about this happening to girls, but this is the first I’ve seen about guys getting crap at cons, and I’m so glad it’s picking up speed. Harassment of any kind is not acceptable, and we don’t need that in our community. Keep cons safe and friendly, guys. Cosplay is not consent ❤

Watch: The most wonderful moment of joy came when he entered a Nazi guard bungalow.

We are the last generation who can hear from these survivors directly. Do not take that lightly. Do not waste that opportunity. Do not forget your freedom isn’t infinitely guarenteed. And do not, do not, let it happen again.

Really truly, watch the video, reblog it. Teaching about the holocaust is so necessary for our generation before it slips under the rug and people forget about it.

I guess because he looks too feminine hes a girl huh, truly my minds eye has been open.
Also this aint it chief

Deflecting criticism with “H-HAHA YOU’RE JUST A TRIGGERED SJW” is not it chief

Amazing how so many YouTube theory channels are adopting the Game Theory method

1. Don’t actually play the game or even try looking up info on Fandom Wikis and/or playthroughs online

2. Make up some bullshit theory that’ll require a “scandalous” thumbnail (opposites are usually the best like “Link is Dead”, “Phoenix Wright is a Criminal”, and “Sans is Ness”)

3. Acquire bullshit and flimsy evidence from nothing

4. Post

5. Whine and cry about “haters” (always good to use Tumblr as a scapegoat, cause it’s not like people who post fanart and write fanfiction of a series would actually be invested in said series)
