I'm a nerdy, white brunette and I want to cosplay either Cecil or Carlos and I want to cosplay Carlos but can I? I'm not the right race or anything. Advice? :(
GET THE FUCK OUT.
#the fact that this even has 28 notes is gross #no #it’s not okay #and i shouldn’t have to explain why this is even problematic
Interesting tags. Why don’t you go ahead and explain why a person shouldn’t cosplay whatever the fuck they want. I’m really curious!
I’m really fucking curious too. Cosplay is for EVERYONE. There should be no discrimination for race, gender, sexuality, NOTHING. The fact that this asshole is being an ignorant fuck baffles me. Anyone care to explain?
I second that. For a long time I have wanted to cosplay Carlos, but as a white brunette female I was afraid I’d be shunned for being racist and whitewashing… why is it that “cosplay is for everyone regardless if race” is only encouraged if you’re not white what
