There is a lot of factional fighting

Some intersectionals want too bring in drag but i think people know enough about it to know it waters down their point

nobuyuki

Drag is essentially crossdressing theater

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:15:15 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

It's frustrating because i used to think there was room for it but when people say it's inherently sexual and then ppl refuse to draw a line between the sexual and nonsexual parts I can totally see their point

nobuyuki

It's not kabuki if you're pole dancing for bills

Like okay do you disapprove of crossplay at conventions

Some furry cons ban leather and bdsm gear in public areas

Idk if any anime cons ban crossdressing cosplay

The excuse is that kids could see

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:18:54 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Uhh idk what the law states but this doesn't seem to be in consideration of local jurisdiction

What you're arguing is specious, you gotta connect the dots @Paige Hendrix

The lobby wants to have it both ways

2019-07-24 05:20:51 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Nope

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:20:55 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Be more specific

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:21:17 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Indecent exposure maybe

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:21:34 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Highly debatable in the case of private convention

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:21:46 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

That's where the line starts to blur

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:23:53 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

My point; tons of ppl crossplay with the purpose of being cheeky or campy and sometimes YES there's an element of sexual energy deliberately charged into it. Even I'd like to have fun tweaking ppl like this with my trappy bf who can pass in certain costumes, but the idea that "kids might be there" throws a wrench into the fun

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:24:18 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Most people just ignore that when it comes to certain cons, and then others have to address the elephant in the room

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:24:53 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

We're talking two separate things

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:25:20 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

The things you mentioned maybe

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:25:31 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Nothing to do with what I'm talking about though

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:25:40 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Which was originally about drag culture

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:26:33 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Crossdressing in general doesn't necessarily have the same stigma and i was trying to establish this point so ppl got it

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:27:05 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Particularly in specific contexts the issue can be about as clear as mud

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:35:26 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Certainly don't fucking put it in times square

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:35:55 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Epsteined

2019-07-24 05:36:34 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

That's what they should call it when big media takes money to peddle pedophile apologia

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:37:01 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

They're epsteining it

I'm setting that meme on the back burner until he gets metoo'd

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:43:11 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Until then it's too partisan to touch

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:47:08 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Here's been facing some raw attacks for decades now but they always seem to be coming from a disingenuous place

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:47:28 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Especially the stuff about his wife and kids

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:48:44 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

I think most ppl think he's got the creepy Uncle gene and hasn't been briefed on the optics

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:49:57 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

As in, he's the Uncle at the party mixing cosmopolitans and making dirty jokes that he laughs at more than everyone else but didn't stop to consider if it's ever making ppl uncomfortable

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:51:45 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

His inner monologue probably doesn't talk about stuff like "don't put your hands on someone else's kid like they're someone in your immediate family"

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:52:20 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Just no self awareness in that regard

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 05:52:41 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Which is also reflected in the "Uncle Joe" gaffes

My bar for valid culture is if u can make me something good i can eat that i can't get elsewhere, "white" culture doesn't pass this test but all ethnicities that pass as white p. much do

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 13:57:43 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

It's cuz we're dancing around this conceit

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 13:58:38 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

Like white ppl are somehow unified or they should construct a unified identity; nah

nobuyuki

2019-07-24 13:59:20 UTC [Athens #the-writing-on-the-wall_memes]

That's just racial collectivism
