Buddy, 40% of this comments section is just you yelling at people who just acknowledge that this outfit is sexually suggestive. Get a fucking grip, maybe search, "what is projection."

Picks a fight with 5 different people and leaves 20 comments about nudity and sexualization.

"Wow, everyone else is a sex-obsessed pervert."

LOL, buddy, I made a comment about how I thought this cosplay was a little too sexual for an all-ages crowd, and you've started two different reply threads and researched an anime you've never watched to tell me about how I'm actually a pervert. There's only one obsessed person here, and it ain't me. Go touch grass, or at least find someone else to project on.

LOL whatever you say, champ.

LOL, keep projecting, dork.

Actually, I've seen very little of the show. Most of what I do know about it comes from an episode of Death Battle. But it's cool that you walent out and did a bunch of research to keep arguing with me, very normal stuff.

Literally no one has brought up attractiveness or arousal except you. You've made up an imaginary person to argue with because you've misinterpreted the fact that people can internally sexualize something to mean that all sexualization is an internal process, and honestly, the imaginary person you've invented says a lot about you.

I literally said in my first comment that sexual cosplay is not an invitation for harassment. All I said was that I think this costume was a bit too sexual for an all-ages event. Calling me a creep won't cover up the fact that you fundamentally don't understand what sexualization is.

LOL, you told me in another thread that you've never seen it.

No, you're conflating sexual objectification and sexualization. Objectifying someone is an internal process of viewing another person (or yourself) as a sexual non-person. Sexualization is just how something becomes sexual. Nudity isn't sexual, but if you pose nude in a sexually suggestive manner, you've sexualized it. I don't know who told you that sexuality was an entirely internal, subjective process, but they were wrong.

I don't think children will be negatively impacted by nudity, but I think they will be negatively impacted by sexualized nudity (and there are a lot of studies that back that up). I wouldn't shield my child from a woman wearing a bikini or breastfeeding, but I also wouldn't bring him to a strip club or show him porn. I think dressing as one of the characters characters from High School Superpowered Sex Uniforms falls into the latter category.

There is sexual and non-sexual nudity, but social norms and circumstances dictate when we find something sexual and when we don't. If you don't see any outfit as inherently sexual, that sounds more like somethings going on with you that you need to explore, but that's gonna need to be a personal journey.

Yeah, again, can just copy paste:

...but sexualization isn't just about how much skin is showing. This outfit shows about as much skin as the Conan cosplay, but is clearly more sexualized:

A Supergirl or Powergirl cosplay can also be revealing, and while you might find someone in that cosplay (or the Conan cosplay) sexual attractive, they're not as sexually suggestive as what this girl is wearing

Yeah, nothing inherently sexual costumes from Kill La Kill, the sweatiest, horniest anime of all time. Great point, dude, great point.

I can just copy-past at this point.

Yeah but that's why context matters. Wearing a bikini at the beach is one thing, wearing it to a job interview is another. I know this line can be blurry with comic book characters since most of them wear fairly revealing outfits, but I would say wearing one of the hyper-sexualized outfits from the anime about high-school girls who get superpowers when their outfits get more sexually explicit is probably too sexual explicit for an all-ages event.

It's appropriate attire for the setting in your opinion. I think wearing a hyper-sexualized outfit from a hyper-sexualized anime in a situation where children will be present isn't appropriate. You're welcome to disagree, but don't try to high-road me because of it.

Fuck all the way off with this. There's nothing wrong with wanting to draw gazes, but that doesn't mean every way of doing that is appropriate for every situation. If you want to draw gazes at a dinner party you wear a low-cut black dress, not a mesh tank top and assless chaps.

While I 100% agree with the sign, I don't think that cosplay is appropriate for walking the floor at comicon. Maybe I'm just becoming an old prude, but that girl is practically nude, and comicon is an all-ages event. I'm not saying she deserves to be harassed, and I'm not letting anyone off the hook for being a creep to her, but that kind of cosplay should be reserved for photo shoots or adults-only environments.

I don't think we should make fun of Miller for his height. We should make fun of him for his stupid fucking voice. Little bitch always sounds like he's about to ask to speak to the manager. He's talking about how the federal government is going to crush their enemies but he sounds like he's whining about his Panera Bread order being wrong. And with his dumb fucking accent he sounds like fascist Pauly Shore.
