April 19, 2013 3:56 pm mcguffin, you should read my comments below for further insight into my journey of healing. I just wanted to comment to correct a small thing: Knockout is named Knockout because she punches people. SUPER STRENGTH.

April 18, 2013 4:37 pm I'm currently around 170lbs, not that it's any of your business, and I couldn't be happier :-)

April 18, 2013 4:23 pm That is precisely what I was saying. If I had just wanted attention, the years of cosplaying other characters before Knockout would have fulfilled this. Personifying strong, empowered female characters helped ME to become strong and empowered.

April 18, 2013 3:20 pm You see, that's just the thing: I DON'T care what other people think of me now. Cosplay helped me begin that journey to self acceptance.

April 18, 2013 1:58 pm First of all: I am so, so happy that I could help you with your own body issues! They are a horrible monster, and I understand how they can completely consume your life and emotional well being. THAT being said... I think you should cosplay Mara Jade ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. If you don't work out, so what? You are cosplaying a character that you love, and I guarantee that escaping into the role of a strong female character will do more for you than you realize.

April 18, 2013 1:49 pm YES. Nite Owl knows me.

April 4, 2013 4:15 pm No, that's a character from League of Legends.

April 4, 2013 4:13 pm "Booth babes" are not allowed at most conventions any more. These "normal" girls all spent hours and tons of money on making their costumes, and they're all beautiful.

April 4, 2013 4:13 pm Contacts are a cosplayers best friend.

December 28, 2012 2:58 pm That's Scarecrow :-)
