Well cosplaying to me seems harder for girls. Mainly because most of the girl's costumes are way too complicated. Plus, in my opinion, guys get better costumes. So I'll be crossplaying... again. ^_^

Also women all have to wear distinctive dresses while men all have to look the same.

That's exactly what I think. Glad to know I'm not alone in thinking that... plus, for some reason many girls wear dresses and skirts and I can't stand those. That's another reason why I like to crossplay, I get to wear pants.
You could always cosplay as a character that looks like a guy such as Kino from Kino no Tabi or Haruhi from Ouran High School Host Club. Nothing's wrong with crossplay, of course (well... On girls if they don't have super big boobs anyways... Man-Faye seriously creeps me out and it looks wear to have a really big chested "guy") I mean I'm going to be crossplaying as well this year, but these are just some suggestions if you do want to cosplay. You could also play a tomboyish character who always wears pants if skirts are what you have a problem with.
Well, I was thinking Haruhi, but my hair isn't short enough and I don't really want to wear a wig.

Quote from: "State Alchemist"Well, I was thinking Haruhi, but my hair isn't short enough and I don't really want to wear a wig.Well, there's always Utena characters. Most of them have pants and long hair. How do you feel about dying your hair? Maybe just some temporary stuff for the convention?
It's alot lot easier for girls to crossplay than for guys, just because of the pants thing. I'm going as L one day and a Cardboard box another (I'm not kidding, I'm going as a Seele sound only monolith. It's going to be awesome).
I confuse myself with this question sometimes.. >>;I cosplay as male characters, however I cosplay as the female version of those characters. oo; Does that qualify as crossplay?

*cackles maniacally*I'm so very glad to have crossplayers on call for Pocky Club. I just wonder how many of our recipients knew. Hooray!

Hooray!There was this one guy that hugged me really hard after I gave him pocky, and when he did, one of his legs somehow went between both of mine and sort of rubbed...against me. Not hard, I mean, no screaming agony of sqishage.BUT.He sort of made this weird face implying "OMFG, YOU...HAVE A...UH. AHHHH. D:>>>"And he sort of ran away.I unno, I laughed for a LONG time over that. XD
@ Reppy: Thanks. xD I'm glad there are others like meee!!

I believe that the con's policy is that you can be thrown out of the convention for harrassment (and possibly have a visit with the local police if they think it's necessary). Just a warning, boys.

Just a warning, boys.I'm sure the fact that he ended up getting another guy's dong pressed firmly against his kneecap was punishment enough. But yeah I agree, if that was intentional, it was really disgusting.Someone told me that they were in a group with some people.. somehow the girl fell on the ground and a guy .. bit her butt(!?!). And then he was running around screaming, "I BIT HER BUTT, I BIT HER BUTT!" Man, I'd have been .. :evil: :evil: :twisted:
