    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

                  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

                    There is nothing inherently sexual about this outfit either, or complete nudity, copying and pasting the same moronic shit isn’t going to change that, you are the problem
