Welp. It now seems as if my comm is holding their monthly meetups on a weekday every time, so I can't go to any of them. I assume this day was decided based on the frequent attendees' schedules, so I won't bother fighting it; I haven't gone in a while and I don't want to be that one person that expects the comm to bend to their every request despite inactivity. Guess it's time to bow out and finally become the lone lolita I was probably always meant to be.

I can have fun by myself, r-right guys?!

Okay, maybe she just didn't have a reply, but is it insensitive to tell your only Chinese friend she should be Mulan? Btw I want to be her bf, big time.

get it steam cleaned and you're fine. people are disgusting all around and sweat in their lolita. As long as there aren't any jizz stains I think you'll be fine, it's no different than sleeping on your parents bed after knowing they've been diddling each other; the sheets are clean and you're not actually touching it. It's just the thought.

Not to be a dick, but that's why I prefer buying from Japanese lolitas. Many East Asians don't produce strong body odor, and sometimes barely sweat at all. Not all of them, but I've never had that problem buying secondhand from Japan yet. The most recent dress I bought from the US reeked.

As an East Asian (specifically Korean) as well, it's actually true. Not in every case of course, but it's very common. We lack the ability to produce body odor based on a gene, it's a mutation I think? Sorry my English isn't great. It's why in Korea, you won't be able to find deodorant, and if someone finds out you use it they laugh in your face. I think there is more useful information online than what I can provide.

From wikipedia on body odor.
> East Asians are genetically predisposed for the allele associated with the dry-type earwax and a reduction in body odor. East Asians (Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese) have fewer apocrine sweat glands compared to people of other descent, making East Asians less prone to body odor.

We do not even stock deodorant in our convenience stores because no one uses it.

I think it's more that East Asians are more nitpicking on their items. Odors and other things are drastically lowering price, or even considered unsellable (or just rude to sell). They also are more neat in mentioning such thing, making the change of it happening unexpected harder.

Also, they sweat just as bad, but they generally just know better how to stay cool, because it's more often warm (and humid, making things worse). There is a reason it's normal to wear a parasol there and people look like you're a fool with an umbrella in the sun here.

>>	Anonymous Sun Jul 30 11:58:13 2017 No.9580004 >>9579515 Body odor is not made by body. It's made by bacteria on the body who use the sweat. Genes have nothing to do with it, but perhaps bacteria in these regions are different, making the long term stay cause less odor.

no. Deodorant is just something that smells nice to mask the smell of sweat. Antitransparant stops you from sweating, but is far worse for your body. Only use it when deodorant is not enough to mask your smell, or if you would end up with big wet stains otherwise.

Dont wear it around the office probably. But honestly in your personal life no one cares as much? And to be frank as a gaijin you get a lot more leeway with a few things like that. Some of my coworkers have scene pictures of me wearing Lolita and think its pretty cool. Same for my cosplay pictures. I just wouldnt wear Lolita to work or to work events.

I do live in a small town though thats close to the city (hour by bus) so I usually dont wear it around my town and just save it for the city. I mean I'd prefer my students dont see me in Lolita but if it happens it happens. (I dont think they'd care so much its just a personal thing.)

Yeah, I figured it wasn't going to be smart to wear it to work, or work related events. But I'll probably be living and working in Tokyo (my school has connections with Tokyo University so I can finish my school there), and shopping dresses will also be in Tokyo (mainly), so I'll always keep that change people from work see me, and considering my job would have nothing to do with clothes, I feel like I'm expected to be a serious, well-mannered adult. Especially because it's some higher university work I'm gonna do. I'm also tattooed, and have one piercing, so on one side I'm really exited, on the other side I'm worried. I understand I'll always be a foreigner, but I do want to fit in enough to have a somewhat normal life you know?

I'm also fearing I need to rid myself from my last few Bodyline main pieces. I sold most in favor for brand and TaoBao, but I have 2 skirts I like, but all I ever hear is it being seen like some sketchy sexshop and I wouldn't dare wearing it there.

The whole situation makes me nervous and excited. It can be pretty hard to find some decent information about the general opinion in Japan on certain things.

You can totally have a normal life and be a gaijin. I mean I'm the only non japanese person in my town. There's a few things I still feel very separated from, but my town seems to accept and like me pretty well. I've made good friends with the obaa-chans that live down the street from me. If you make the effort to connect with the culture and the people around you that honestly makes all the difference.

Outside of work you dont have to be super serious. You can enjoy your lolita and they generally wont say a thing. None of mine have said anything besides being happy that I'm interested in Japanese fashion. Same goes for tattoos, you probably wont need to cover them when you're not at work. Especially if you're in Tokyo.

Drop me an email if you want! I know how you feel, I was both super terrified and mega excited right before my move. But honestly I'm happier than I've ever been in my life living here.

My biggest thing with tattoos is how I read everyone sees them as criminal, and you won't get into a bathhouse, swimmingpool, sportplace or any other place you would have to undress/redress, and the ones that do allow it are full of Yakuza.

I defiantly want to make a effort to connect and do things the "Japanese" way so to say. It often sounds stressful, but it's pretty much a dreamjob kinda case, and the market is really small in Japan, even smaller outside of it.

I'll send you a mail, hearing stories from people already living there is defiantly nice!

If you're moving to Japan, learning Japanese seems a good idea. At least learn enough to have normal conversations.

There is a bias yeah. I'm a teacher over here (on summer break right now though) yeah.

You'll still find other asians (Japanese descended and from other parts of Asia) working here as teachers but you're more likely to get a job teaching with a company than going for a private hire right off the bat. The bias against asian english teachers is a lot stronger there. But I can say that a good chunk of my training group was asian and a lot of my friends here are. You're going to have better chances looking for hire with a company that does hiring out of your home country, like Interac or JET.

The accent thing is another story. A lot of companies hire from England or other English speaking countries fine. But the students will struggle to understand you for a bit. Also be aware that all grammar you teach will be using American english.

And as a side note on the learning Japanese thing. I was told by many sources before moving here that you don't have to speak any Japanese and you'll get by fine. Bull and shit. Not saying you have to be fluent mind you, I came over only knowing Katakana Hiragana and some rudimentary stuff, but I've been studying really hard since I got here. Being able to communicate and make Japanese friends can go a long way towards building a happy life in Japan. Don't overlook that.

Thanks for the information, I'll look into it a bit further. Also, I should have mentioned, I did take Japanese all four years of high school. I'm not fluent, but I know enough to be able to hold a conversation. I'll look into companies more.

honestly, it sounds like you two might make a cute Tenya and Uraraka. he's pretty built, and quite pale; especially good if your bf's either up for leg day or already has really muscular legs. and if you're really, really thin, it might not be the best because I know she's described as having a round face at one point, but I bet if you puffed out your cheeks a bit in photos and didn't contour them, you could get the same effect.

granted, if your bf's more muscular in the arms/chest, he might be onto something and All Might and Midoriya might be the better way to go; I'm sure you'd make a cute Deku anon. you could always go for his everyday or gym outfit instead of his super hero outfit if you're worried about doing his weird bunny mask.

how the hell are all these people meeting bfs/gfs in cosplay?
seems like every con I've been to no one really talks outside of their own group they came with or are rooming with, and putting that you like anime or cosplay in a dating profile seems like it's social suicide.

is there some secret code or something people use to communicate this shit?

I met my bf in cosplay (been dating for a year now), we talked to each other while waiting to participate on the contest. He was nice and friendly so we engaged in small talk, and later I saw him hanging with a girl I knew, so we talked a little more. When I arrived home I asked the girl we both knew about his FB and well, that was it.

Just strike conversation casually (you could talk about the character he/she's cosplaying, or the anime, videogame, whatever) and if there's good communication, ask for their FB or social network of your choice. That's it! Good luck anon!

It's a joke photo from a parenting blog years ago. It happened, at least from what I understand, in response to the fact that some store started selling toddler-sized thongs. I think it was possibly A&F or Hollister, I can't remember.

Regardless, it's not a real product, but it's become a symbol on cgl of ageplayers or some shitposting. Emphasis on shit.

It's ok anon. I won't sell the dresses I've had sex in either, because it's pretty much a taboo topic in lolita community and I don't want to offend people like that because in essence I'm a decent person.
The reason I've had sex while wearing is not the fashion itself as a kink, it's just that we live together with my boyfriend and I dress everyday and sometimes I've just wanted to go for a quickie without having the patience to remove all clothing. It's that simple and at core there's nothing wrong about it since I'm not a ddlg shitbitch but it still feels wrong, offensive and dirty somehow? Ahh, idk.

I really prefer at least talking to someone first before adding them on social media, so I just kinda...rejected it. Tangentially related but what is it about Lolita that attracts trans women? I'm relatively knowledgable of my state's trans community (as I have friends in it) and Ive never met this women before in my life. Every comm seems to have at least one, too.
I'm too socially retarded to figure out if she's just really excited to have "girly" friends or if she's a sissy.

start practicing going out more, just to grocery stores and other places to build yourself up to being around strangers.

you have to take it a step at a time, and can't force yourself or you're going to cause an aversion to it completely.

integrate yourself slowly, and THEN go to a meet. just keep trying, anon, you'll make it.

Try the artist alley at anime cons. I'm a guy who likes lolita and in the artist alley. I'm sure the one, possibly even 2 other men who actually do artist alley have a higher chance of also liking lolita. It is also easy to talk to someone in artist alley since you have something to talk about, their table.

Don't have them available at home, but make sure you have plenty of healthy snacks (raw vege sticks like carrot or celery, small portions of unseasoned nuts). Don't go out to eat. Do your grocery shopping when you aren't hungry, with a list and a meal plan and avoid the confectionery aisle.

The other thing is finding healthy alternative recipes that are tasty and enjoyable. If it's bacon you want, use it sparingly mixed with heaps of veges and other things e.g. instead of pastry based egg and bacon pie with grated cheese topping, go for a no-pastry egg white quiche with one yolk for flavour, generous amounts of leafy greens like silverbeet, spinach and leeks and bacon chopped finely, use cottage cheese on top and a sprinkle of something more flavoured.

Your body starts craving fat and you do need fat to function (the walls of every cell in your body are made with lipids and lots of vitamins don't get absorbed properly with fat in your diet), so sub with "healthy" fats like avocado.

Also just generally it gets easier once you haven't had it in a while, I was brought up on a really healthy diet and rarely crave junk food but I've noticed that if I have a burger or w/e two days in a row I start craving it much more frequently. It's a balance between not denying yourself so much you get obsessed (i.e. once your cravings are at a reasonable/occasional level it doesn't hurt to sate them) but also not going overboard and overeating to the point where you get sort of addicted to it and want more and more.

Just eat the fatty foods. You can eat anything you want without getting fat if you don't eat too much of it.
Train your stomach to not feel hungry as easily. I lost 20 lbs eating fatty and sugary shit every day but still staying under 1200 kcal. Obviously you need to make sure you're still getting the nutrients you need, but otherwise you really don't have to eat like a rabbit to lose weight.

It's very common in certain cultures to live with your parents to pool income and share resources like food and satellite tv. Prior to the economic boom of the 1950s it was quite common in the US, but it became associated with immigrants and other social undesirables such as poor people as well as being a reminder of the hardships of the depression in the 1930s.

any other social anxiety lolitas here???? I live in a capital city where there are loads of lolitas and I know I wouldn't be scared if I had someone to wear it out with. But that involves going out alone and making a friend whilst wearing it.
why on earth did I spend so much money on a beautiful fashion if I am too scared to wear it out of the house alone? I wish there was a way of making lolita friends before I went to a meet, but all of the girls in my local comm seem like such a well established friendship group and I'm too anxious to message them (plus they seem older than me to the point where I feel like they'd probably be weirded out by some random girl messaging them). It's a catch 22 in which I never gain friends....

Maybe its because I grew up always in hobbies where constructive crit was a constant in my life, but I dont see whats wrong with it?

I always thought I would rather know something than look like a fool later because no one wanted to tell me.

But now that I know I at least wont do it to this girl again. This is why I generally only make friends with others around my own age, even girls in their younger 20s seem more easily put off.

I met a cosplayer through social media we grew close and eventually i got a crush on them, after i got a chance to meet them i ended up finding out she met someone at a con and she wnted to date them, no biggie, however i did state that i really liked them despite them being in a relationship and if that was awkward i could stop being friends with them, i use to platonically tell them i loved them and it made them uncomfortable so i stopped. We grew apart just from being far away and her being in a relationship, she would still come to me to vent about her relationship which was cool with me until she told me she broke up with her girlfriend for wanting space, and said she did it to see what she would do. I told her thats manipulation and she flipped on me, started crying and says she's not like that. I told her if she liked her to make things up with her girlfriend and apologize, she did and the relationship still fell apart. I gave myself distance from her at this point because of my own personal issues and she'd get upset with me, even going as far as accusing me of talking shit about her. I got fed up and blocked her for a year. Somehow we re enter each others lives, i dont talk to her much at all despite us being close a while back. She suggested we hang out so we made plans to go swimming but instead she took herself shopping and i had to watch her get ballet shoes, something ive been wanting for years, and noticed over time that when she's in a relationship she puts it all over social media. Slandering her boyfriend any chance he would vent about his issues in the relationship to friends online. I watched her say evil things about her now ex boyfriend so by then i definitely showed no interest in being her friend anymore....
To be continued

Yeah, it's usually because that's how people like that are raised. You know those adults that act like the sun shines out of their child's ass, that they can do no wrong, and they're constantly putting them on a pedestal them for doing minimal effort...sometimes this is how their children end up. It really doesn't have anything to do with age in my experience.

I met up with another well known cosplay takisiki, and knew about the relationship she had with my ex friend and how she cyber bullied her, she heard me make a comment about the girl we knew and what i felt about it, i think she's emotionally and mentally abusive and even Confronted takisiki about her bullying her at the time, takisiki says she's not like that anymore, but insisted my ex friend is a good friend despite how she treats me and other people who are close with her. Knowing someone for a few years and actually being around them is totally different. So takisiki took it upon herself to tell my ex friend i was talking shit about her despite the conversation ending the conversation with i know what you do. Long story short takisiki still loves shit stirring.

Step one: Ask questions related to lolita. You see a new photo in the comm fb group? Ask something about it.
Step two: Find something you're interested in about someone and ask them to tell you more. This could be a style someone collects or a theme they're into.
Step three: Brave the wilds and go to a lolita meet on your own. It's exhilarating to go out that first time, and after your first excursion, it gets way easier to just get out into public in your outfits.

So at Anime Expo 2017 I saw a bunch of buff dudes in white shirts and red shorts. They had a tiny skinny girl with a bowl haircut with them and when they took photos of the dudes picking her up like a dumbbell, hundreds of people took photos.

Signing the lease to a new apartment I'm moving into with my boyfriend tomorrow and I'm super excited. We both love each other very much, but we're in that hard part of the relationship where we both work a lot and have to put in OT hours to make extra cash so being able to see him even just in between shifts is going to be great.

I was in that boat for a while, I ended up having to get a second job to make ends meet and that cut into more of my freetime. Honestly, go where the money is. If it was cutting into your freetime AND paying more, I'd stay, but if it's you constantly working for not enough money, I'd look for employment elsewhere. Also, "rewarding" is subjective; you might find your dream job where you least expect it.

Okay so Facebook has become the one and only place for most comms to conduct business, like setting up events and keeping track of which members are doing what. It's all done on the mods and members free time too, so if they have to keep track of a FB group and a mailing list for the people who refuse to make things easy for them, I hope you can see why you've fallen to the wayside. Events are done via FB group RSVPs. You see the event page, you click 'going', they know how many people to expect. With dozens or hundreds of members, keeping up correspondence via mailing list is a logistical nightmare!
Make a Facebook page and sign up for comm notifications only. Problem solved.

You're probably getting hung up on the idea of other people noticing you while you're heading to the meet, and then not making connections at the meet. You can alleviate this by listening to music and keeping to yourself out in public, and not entertaining intrusive folk who demand your attention - you're allowed to refuse questions and comments! You can also make sure you're able to meet people by asking the event host if they can help you introduce yourself, or ask if they can start the meet with introductions overall. My comm does this - it helps people learn names and major interests.
