COSPLAY BULLYING!

I hate doing this but this is a subject that I must talk about! Cosplay  Bullying. Last night on facebook I was bullied by a girl that I have never met and all I had done was share my cosplay plans for 2016 and this girl was super harsh towards me. This was the second time she had done this at least the first time round she was a little subtle about it. However even so I DO NOT TOLERATE COSPLAY BULLYING! or even bullying in general.

Cosplay is a time for people to let go and relax as well as enjoy themselves in a friendly and safe environment and yet now days people are being harsh and critical to each other and are ruining the fun in cosplay. Telling someone that you should not cosplay that character at all because it doesn't suit you and if you  cosplay it in front of me I will do something about it is not the attitude that you want.

Cosplay is not meant to be about looking exactly like the character that you are being nor is it about if you're race is suited to that character or if you are cosplaying the right gender for that character.

I have seen Males do better female characters than females themselves and I have seen people wearing their culture garments and still doing amazing cosplays without taking them off due to the fact that their religion doesn't allow it. People who can cosplay whilst still practicing their religion well I look up to you guys as that is the attitude you are meant to have.

People who bully others because they don't like what they see or don't like who they are well then I'm sorry but its not the place you want to be. Cosplay as I said before is all about having fun and enjoying what you love! If someone ever tells you never to cosplay that character because you don't suit them or you will look awful as them then turn around and tell them to shove it. Cosplay is not about that and its horrible to see that it's turning that way now.

NEVER EVER TELL SOMEONE NOT TO COSPLAY A CHARACTER EVER!

USE THE THINK acronym

T - Is it True?

H - Is it Helpful?

I - Is it Inspiring?

N - Is it Necessary?

K - Is it Kind?

Well thats all I have to say except Cosplay for you and never for someone else! Also Never tell someone NOT TO COSPLAY A CHARACTER that they have loved since they were 10.
