Best of luck, Rukkirii

Yup, without going too much into detail...I've been stalked RL, followed, harassed by men and woman, stalked online (still happening but I am working on fixing that by deleting EVERYTHING) and a lot other way worse things which I won't mention. And you know how it all started? With people making threads about me online due to a Yoko picture I posted for fun on a cosplay board. Kinda snowballed into something horrible.

But the point is, women will see this differently then men because some of us have had horrible experiences with stalking and creepy folks in general. But hey she puts her REAL name in her signature on this forum so, I dunno. Have to be smart when doing stuff online.

I'm forced to see it both ways. I find creepers (and many posters in this thread) to be very distasteful, even cringeworthy.

On the other hand, it's hard to feel sympathy for people who engage in attention seeking hobbies, and then turn around and complain that they got more attention than they bargained for, or not the kind of attention they wanted. I'm not trying to blame the victim here, but I really think it goes both ways.

And back on topic, I'll just repeat what I said before in different words. For me personally, nothing of value was lost here. I have no opinion on the individual, positive or negative.

As an additional side note:

Having dated a cosplayer, never date a cosplayer. I'm not bitter, I'm experienced.
