    Oh fuck all the way off. Let a woman dress however she wants. If a Luffy or Conan costume is okay, what this woman is wearing is okay too.

    Sometimes women like drawing gazes. The point is it should always stop at gazes.

      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.

        Stop. Policing. Women’s. Clothes.

        She isn’t at a dinner party, she’s at a convention.

        What she’s wearing is an accurate and well-done cosplay, and that is 100% appropriate attire for the setting. It would be the equivalent of a ‘low cut black dress’, you sexist asshole.

        Edit: Which shouldn’t matter anyways, because cosplay is not consent. A woman should be able to walk around naked in public without getting sexually harassed, never mind while wearing what she likes. Clothes are never consent. No matter if you judge them ‘appropriate’ or not.

          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.

            If you don’t like it you’re free to stay home with your kids, people take their kids to the beach and see similar and nobody bats an eye, get over it or get lost

              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.

                A comic convention is not a job interview you fucking moron, there is nothing inherently sexual about nudity or this outfit or a bikini, your inability to be normal about/around attractive people is entirely a you problem

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

                    I’ve never seen it and I don’t need to, doesn’t matter how horny you think the anime is the costume is no different from common swimwear and your inability to be normal about it indictates clearly that you are the problem in this scenario
