Wearing a costume. Not exactly a new concept. The word, though, projects a new concept. It is a gen X/Y concept, related to just saying. Gen X/Y hate to be held accountable for actions; they consider it an act of violence. So, they have language that says, Im doing this, but act like Im not because that will make me feel better about doing it. Just saying means, Im going to make a point, but act like I didnt. That way I can have my say, but not have any negative consequences. Cosplay is the same idea. If we still said, wearing a costume, one might well, and often, ask, Why are you wearing a costume? Hoy! Thats about me! Uh, uh, uh...I have to give a rationale for my behavior. I never do that! Cant we pretend its not about me??? So we have cosplay, the activity takes on the responsibility for the actor. Why are you doing that? Because its cosplay! If one responded thats stupid, they can say, Oh, youre not down with cosplay. If they had said, Im wearing a costume and you said, thats stupid, it would be about them. And they would feel bad. And never upsetting anyone is what weve taught our vermin so we can shove a few more into the same space without them killing each other.

There are two realms of Cosplay~

2.) [Fatass] nasty acne ridden American social retards who dress up as anime characters except they look nothing like them because their fat ass is pouring out of the back. And YOU ARE NOT JAPANESE, YOU WILL NEVER BE. Gross.
