/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

[Anonymous No.9366555]

It's carnival and I want to wear a costume with a turban. But I don't want to pass as a racist by saying I'm wearing a whole culture as a costume (carnival is full of SJW and they out number me)

So I need some specific characters who wear turban to cosplay as, ive me ideas, also, make it with a beard.

[Anonymous No.9366566]

Why do you want to wear a turban? Because if you wanna wear it to spite SJWs or whatever then that's a shitty reason and you're only "cosplaying" as an excuse to be an asshole. Not cool bro. If you just legitimately think they look really awesome and just want a design that incorporates one that's a different story but do some introspection about what you're committing to.

[Anonymous No.9366581]

If you are in a place that celebrates Carnival you shouldn't need an excuse to wear one, since they're kind of sort of customary anyway. Wearing costumes with turbans is literally part of the celebration. If you're in a place that DOESN'T celebrate carnival... just don't, you're going to look like an asshole no matter what you do.

[Anonymous No.9366587]

I don't think it's a good idea OP, if it's some character nobody knows, they'd just think you're dressed as a foreigner anyway... Maybe Aladdin?

>>9366581
You seem under the impression poeple all over the world celebrate carnival the same. Nobody wears them for carnival here unless it's part of the costume. I've never seen it.

This to be honest

>>9366581
Hahahaha what
Turbans are definitely not part of the celebrations where I live.

Hu3? If not, where? Here we don't use turbans at all, we use little to no clothing to say the truth :^)

>>9366555
If you do it, make it accurate and awesome so you don't look like the dick you might as well be.

Iznogoud was a pretty popular cartoon/comic.

[Anonymous No.9366630]

Depends on where you're from OP. You could maybe do that guy from the Mighty Boosh if you know the show, or a generic genie and just carry around a lamp?

My immediate thought was Mr.Popo but that's full on blackface lel

Oh, my b. There are places that DO wear costumes with turbans (or fezzes, or other odd hats)

Anon is from the Netherlands, as carnaval just started here. Carnaval is NOT the place to cosplay.. Cosplays are much better quality as what most people wear and you'll get beer over it anyway. Second of all, even if you dress up as a character with a turban, SJW's will still be after your ass as no one will recognise it. Just grab some cheap, ugly af, badly made costume and you're ready to party.

(Sorry for Dutch meme.)

Where the fuck y'all going that this is problem? The current big carnaval hit is the dude dressed as a literal rapist raping a girl.
Or the guys dressed as Taliban warriors last year, or people just dressed as camel riding stereotypical Ottomen....

Like all costumes are racist, sexist/sexy, or for kids.
Worst case scenario go to Tilburg or any of the less university-esque cities and have no trouble whatsoever.

I think they look cool and everyone tells me I look like a arab, so why not?

I'm brazilian, carnival is full of liberal college students and the LGBT comunity.

>>9366782
I personaly know people who got shit onlast year for dressing like the chinese stereotype, and we got that white girl who was acused of """cultural apropriation""" for wearing a turban, things are changing

[Anonymous No.9367361]

>>9366988
Some turbans have intense religious or cultural significance, others don't. Just do your research to find a style that doesn't and don't wear a racist stereotype costume and that'll work.

You can do Wrathion from World of Warcraft.

But it's a very detailed costume..

Or Belgium, the "big" carnaval city is gearing up for its carnavalweekend. In which case, your arguments still hold. Carnaval is now a weak excuse to go out and get drunk, you don't cosplay at carnaval.

Lol, just use it. Fellow brazilian, commom people doesn't give a fuck, only if your are going to a sjw place. And if your are going to a sjw place, don't be a weeb. They won't care about your weebness and count it as racism regardless.

Also the "turban" girl was using a hair turban that you can easily buy in shopping mall kiosks.

Also, pic related, a good example of brazilian carnival costume. Saw on my facebook, all my friends was praising it. And I am from one of the most sjw course/college from brazil, my facebook has only sjw since I only use for college.

Where you at? New Orleans represent.

Reminder that if you are in any other part of the US (save maybe Mobile or Jackson) you are not experiencing real carnival and are a larper

Can i wear a lucha libre mask as a white guy on cinco de mayo?

[Anonymous No.9368265]

Yes and you can totally 100% expect some latinx chicano studies majors to get really mad and call you a Trump supporting bigot alt-right pedo nazi so you really should totally do it.

Good bait thread.

Just wear a damn turban and ignore the whole SJW / Racism thing.

Actual turban-wearers won't be offended, and if oversensitive white fuccbois and fatgrills wanna be offended on their behalf, then they can be safely ignored.

[Anonymous No.9369071]

just wear original samba or carnaval outfit

wear a turban if you like, at least it will protect you if a drunk dude want to fight you and hit you on the head

OP, you should just ignore the vocal minority's attempts to suppress you. No reasonable person would see this as an issue.
