High Heels are Bad! (Cosplay Wank)
[info]gentileschi posts about her Sailor Uranus cosplay which features a hefty pair of boots.

[info]mewmew makes note about the shoes.

I wonder why so many people get those "fetish" boots or whatever. The senshi do NOT wear boots like that, but half the peole who cosplay still get boots with tall, thin heels.

She goes into the details of how High Heels can kill!! are bad for you. The OP and K0dama don't care.

The first thread was frozen, so Mewmew replies once again! The thread is shortly frozen.

So what does she do?
She replies again! Which still isn't frozen.

So, judging by their footwear, the entire cast of One Piece are whores.

Good to know.

I mean, this is pretty obvious and everyone is gonna say it, but wearing high heels for one day is not gonna cause irreversible back problems forever and ever amen.

It seems more like this chick thought the boots were stupid and tried to back up her claim with righteous indignation, then when people called her out for her stupidityit only drove her to believe her own bullshit and become vehement.

I never said people will die from wearing heels, but you notice how a lot of older people, women especially, have physical problems? Why do you think that is? Because most women like to wear heels.

ALERT THE MEDIA! Mewmew has just come up with a preventative cure for cancer HIV arthritis the gout heel blisters.

According to this cat-on-the-head person, it seems that high heels cause osteoporosis, and finally, death in older women. Now I know how to flee from death - no more high heels! That must be Voldemort's secret! And the Death Eaters changed their name from "Odor Eaters". IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

Although mewmew took it too far...when did Haruka become a go go dancer?

OP argues that "...the Accuracy Police Squad is not needed today." but claims that the boots are needed to "...create the illusion of having the ridiculously long legs the Senshi are drawn with."

Wouldn't is be easier to get the right shoes than to try and make your legs longer than they are in reality?

This entire thread makes me go O_o

I see boots like this and think the only reason someone would want to wear them would have to be as part of a costume, because as cool as they are to look at--wearing them on a regular basis as real shoes? Bwahahaha! The second pair is pretty in an arty way, but walking in them... oh, man.

horribly ugly whore boots

Uh huh. Way to undermine your high-falutin' argument with your real opinion, missy.

*Pls to not be offending people who can and do wear funky high-heeled boots.

(*vaguely ranty?*)

Now, I haven't looked at the statistics, so bear with me.

But I'd think any lasting damage from wearing boots with heels would occur from wearing them regularly for prolongued periods. I fail to see how wearing boots for several hours at a con would cause permanent damage.

It's like some sort of warped fairy tale, "Oh, woe, I have worn them once and the cursed boots have damaged my feet!"

Personally, I don't think the boots suit the character, but hey, interpertation is up to the cos-player, I guess.

Cosplay wank is my new favorite. People who are obsessed with minute details and with outward appearances - it just has so much potential for wankiness!

I think this girl needs to switch to decaf, stat. There's no need to go all aggro over heels, although I hate them.

Even though mewmew's being pretty wanky (not to mention invasive - can't she learn to mind her own business?), I have to admit I don't see a good reason why those boots are necessary for the cosplay if they're not accurate and they're horribly painful.

Why she's going on a crusade about this "heel thing," though, is a mystery to me.

Yeesh. I'm going to my first con in April, and I was originally thinking of wearing a costume I made for fun/Halloween a couple years ago, but I'm kind of afraid to now because of accuracy freaks.

I can't walk in heels, like, at all. My roommate wears them nearly every day, even to class -- I don't see how (or why) she does it.

You know, whenever I see people harping like this and not bending an inch, I always think of Tomakobriefs of 'put BC in fanfics!' fame. I hope this woman never has children. I mean can you imagine what she'll put them through.

Daughter: Uh Mom, I have to make a confession. Three years ago, at that slumber party with Stephanie and Jamie, I took a puff of a cigarette.

Mom: Oh my God, you're going to die slowly and painfully of emphysema and lung cancer at twenty-five! You won't live long enough to get married, have children, or ever live your life. I'm going to lose you and be all alone! I need to put you in rehab, even though your fate is already sealed.
