A wild majority of & #39;mainstream& #39; LARPers are men who don& #39;t want marginalized groups in their spaces. They don& #39;t want women who love their identity - if the woman isn& #39;t highly sexualised and there for them to look at, then she isn& #39;t wanted. They don& #39;t want POC, but they& #39;ll 1/
gladly do blackface for villainous creatures and monsters. They don& #39;t want the queer community, but they& #39;ll behave in an exaggerated camp way to make themselves laugh. And they& #39;ll go to fucking ridiculous extents to make fun of and push out anyone who isn& #39;t a straight white 2/
cis male. They& #39;ll make fun of things that make other people happy. They& #39;ll gatekeep because their space isn& #39;t a safe space for anyone else, and they don& #39;t want their space becoming a safe space for anyone else. It& #39;s toxic.

designed and created outfit, they& #39;re often wrong in their criticism. "There& #39;s no pink in the Witcher!" Well, what the fuck is this first picture, then? "Pink isn& #39;t historically accurate!" Actually, it was more common than some other saturated colours - it was easier to get a 4/
light pink dye than a strong red dye. Also, why the fuck do you feel the need to comment on a costume that looks epic, isn& #39;t immersion-breaking, and makes the player happy?
