Angry feels
I’m so fucking sick of seeing these ‘as a plus size lolita...’ posts. There’s a very simple solution to your problem; lose weight. It’s literally that easy, start putting less crap into your body and start exercising. And to not be able to fit into brand these days is ridiculous, AP with a shirring panel in the back can fit a US size 14 and fully shirred pieces can accommodate a bust/waist of over 100 cm. Being a fatass is an issue you created for yourself that you yourself can fix, stop crying about it.
And for the billionth fucking time: nobody cares if you’re wearing brand or indie as long as it looks good. I hate that self pitying ‘I don’t own brand :((((‘ shit.

>> No.9651703

>>9651699
I feel like these people whine because they don't look good, and for one reason or another they believe that they'll look better in brand that is unattainable to them because it doesn't fit them, which is not true. You look good when you dress for your size, in colors and cuts that flatter you, with pieces made from high quality materials, not when the dress on your body has a BTSSB label sewn on it. If she looked good in her clothes (whatever brand they may be) she wouldn't have made that post.

God yes this was my exact reaction to this post. I get so unreasonably angry when morbidly obese people refer to themselves as merely "plus-sized". There's currently someone in my local comm asking for places to buy lolita for someone who is "a little bigger". People had to drag out of her what her exact measurements are so they can actually help her, and it turns out her waist circumference is almost 100cm. That's more than a "little" bigger! Downplaying morbid obesity helps no one.

I’m on birth control that makes it easier for me to gain and harder to lose, so instead of just using that as an excuse to be fat I’m more careful of what I eat and I exercise more than other people. And let’s be real, most people are fat because they eat too much, not because of some sad, tragic backstory with some disease.

Like >>9651703 said I'm 99% sure it's from people who look like shit and justify the lack of worship and praise because "brand whores" instead of taking any constructive criticism. I've known so may of these types in and out of lolita. Oh and don't forget it's only because they're busty and "asian body types" are impossible to even get near if you're over twelve.

They're also the ones that get super triggered when someone's too small for lolita. Since they can't do the whole "privilege" thing here they go for "skelly underage boy body" instead and shit up entire threads over "humblebragging" in response to a fit thread or question. Some of it's trolling, but there's definitely some that come here cause they pretend to actually just be Jessica Rabbit irl instead of having a waist twice the size of her hips.

Fattychans who make fun of super petite girls are the worst. My bff is 5’0 and 100 lbs, the shirring on a lot of more recent relseases are just too much and dresses are obviously too big on her torso <normie fashion is a march through hell for her trying to find things that fit>. It’s not humblebragging, it’s a legitimate complaint she has about brand sizing and watching fattychans sperg about small girls is infuriating.

Yup, and tailoring doesn't work at all the way they think it does. Even normal simple garments can only be brought down 1-2 sizes max if it has any shaping or structure at all.

Altering any lolita is going to be around 200-350 usd and they can only take very little in. They also won't do it unless it's plain or has a plain repeating pattern because they can't without ruining print and they don't want people demanding money back. They also can't take in cup sizes no matter how plain without wrecking it, that only works on plain simple shirts that already have princess seams. And yes there are people who can't fill out anything but IW and other tube bodices, proportionally and size wise. You also can't "just hem it" if it's too long without fucking up prints, borders, proportions, and even trims can be a bit tricky depending.

Yeah that's what I meant by only being able to change one part. Both short and tall people have the same exact fit issues with shoulders, arm holes, bust/waist height and etc. 5'5 is only about 2-3 inches taller than the Japanese average and the same as lots of China though. So you shouldn't have a problem with a length or proportions unless you're going for teen brands or 90's oldschool and want 2017 length.

I agree, I'm 5'5 and would fit everything fine if my shoulder width weren't 41cm. It makes fitting into ops quite challenging as it drives up my bust and the arm holes sit in the wrong spot. But I'm quite happy as I can fit most pieces and I'm lucky to have smallish bust and waist naturally.

Have any of you guys gotten super anxious about wearing lolita? Or more specifically, about the reactions you get? I can't explain the joy lolita brings me, it makes me special kind of happy but for a while I have been feeling weird about it. Lolita makes me feel happy and pretty but also I have been feeling ridiculous and tired of stares, questions and comments. When I manage to get dressed it makes me feel so good but most of the times I can't overcome the negative feels before I get dressed and just put on something boring and feel disappointed the whole day. I didn't care what others thought about me in the past and I just want to stop caring again.

You're cute, anon, your reaction reminds me of the "holy shit a celebrity is wearing brand" shitfests back on EGL.
I don't think it's a big deal that she wears (or has worn) AP, more the fact that she taints it and the fashion with her bullshit. Also the fact many of her fans latched onto her image and use it to fuel their ddlg fetish, and then piggyback on that when they get their grubby little hands on lolita. That does get under my skin.

I know this feeling. Occasionally I'm tempted to put together an OTT coord just to fit in better with the rest, but then I remember that I'd only ever wear it to meetups at most once a year, which to me is a waste of money and closet space. So instead I focus more on details and highest possible quality in things I can get more wear out of. People who truly care about fashion notice these things, too.

I think she's the only western celebrity who has ever done jfashion right. Her attempt at lolita was pretty bad though, but to be fair, I don't think she was aiming for a real lolita coord and at least she looked cute and didn't alter the dress.

Why do so many normies act they'll die if they ever wear something that covers their shoulders or thighs? I kinda get the thigh thing is because they often can't believe women can look good without being "sexy." But anything normies make "acceptable" always has to have spaghetti straps or those horrible thick ones. Same for nearly any normie dress without long sleeves. Even most Halloween costumes seem to be that way and they do it the least. It's not like they can't buy OPs

But anon covering your shoulders is so prudish and boring, and besides the dresses look much cuter when they're so short they don't cover their asses, I mean that's why it's called lolita, right?

She really is! This iconic old-school one is her too. There's a subtitled interview with her on YouTube from last year that you should totally look up, she seems so sweet and like she really gets what the fashion is about even though she doesn't generally wear it. She also worries that her voice is too rough and not cute enough for lolita, but imo it just makes her seem even cuter.

I've been wanting to introduce my girlfriend to aristo for a long time, I suddenly saw some things I thought she'd like and randomly decided to show her them and we just spent an hour or so browsing brands and now she's obsessed and plans to buy a lot of pieces once she has the money.

I've been a lolita for a while, and even before I met my girlfriend, I thought about having a qt jfash grillfriend to dress up with. I love it. I've posted here about it forever ago, but I'm so happy. I'll be a tiny 5'2" pastel lolita with a 5'8" (and more with heeled boots) edgy aristo gf who only wears black. I'm going to shower her in Atelier BoZ and whatever else I can find-- she loves the Roland coat.

She's even coming to visit me in the winter (she lives in the EU, I'm in USA) and we'll be going to a con an hour or two away. I'm so hyped, you guys. She's the best friend I'd ever have in the world and it makes me so hyped to have even another thing we can both enjoy together.

my mom is really supportive of my hobbies and my wearing lolita, but she kind of lives her shopping addiction through me and believes quantity > quality and keeps buying me poor quality taobao/milanoo tier stuff without consulting me at all...

i'm really happy that she's taken an interest but the thing is, even she is disappointed by the quality every single time something comes in. i wish i understood why she kept buying if she knew it wasn't the way it was portrayed online. i've tried explaining gently which places are trustworthy and which are not but it's kind of inappropriate to be like, "buy me stuff here, not here!"

I don't think that directing her to reputable sources is inappropriate, all things considered. She's very willing to buy you things (though it does seem unhealthy), if asking her to not buy you anything is not an option, the least you can do is direct her somewhere that will actually supply the things she sees in the photos so neither of you will be disappointed, and she stops wasting money on crap.

I put it off for a really long time and have several health complications and heart issues as a result of it. I've started losing weight recently as well through diet and exercise, and I think my ED was actually preventing me from losing it.
Even if you can't get help immediately please try to at least put off purging for as long as you can to start with, which helped me a lot in the beginning. If you don't have anyone to reach out to try to join some forums like >>9653447 said. I'm rooting for you.

There are a ton of places to meet people, but meeting the people you want to meet is the hard part. I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

Maybe I'm too old for Chinese cartoons. Its all teenagers everywhere. And many of them are batshit and ready to unload their baggage within the first hour of contact.

>/cgl/ - The only board on 4chan where ED doesn't mean erectile dysfunction.

I had a gf who had an eating disorder due to an upbringing of tactless autistic family members, (she was by no means fat, especially by burger standards). Because it was a mental disorder there's not a lot I could do about it. The best I could do to minimize physical damage was cook more nutrient dense meals and teach basic healthy living, but it probably didn't make to much of a difference. In the end it was therapy and time that helped her get past it.

the thing is though, it's really not bad to be picky about your friend group or who you associate with. it's natural to feel resentment towards people if they don't meet your expectations--especially online, fading relationships aren't a huge deal unless it's a long-term investment (think years).

however you also need to realize that everybody has annoying flaws, and weighing the pros and cons of being friends with them is important. try not to burn bridges until you're sure. my 2 or 3 close online friends annoy the hell out of me sometimes but the times when they're cool make up for it.

I have a serious issue with buying Lolita. Not a spending problem, the opposite. If a dream dress comes up and I have more than enough money, I talk myself out of it. I can't believe I do it. I don't know why. When I was a teen and broke as fuck and hoping and praying that I could afford an expensive brand dress, did I ever think that I'd talk myself out of it?
I think it started about five years ago when I nearly bought Puppet Circus. It was only $500 for the jsk in red. It's still a dream dress. I had the money and all my bills paid. I talked myself out of it. I've never seen it so cheap in such good condition since.

Why am I like this

I just want like a lolita bestie, I feel so lonely sometimes. I'm a mod to my comm and all but considering I live in a small country, our comm is small. Also, all the members live far apart from each other, and I'm pretty sure I'm the farthest one from the rest, and they treat lolita as sort of a part time thing. I do get along with another mod really well because she has a similar way of seeing lolita as I do and a super cute style, but she also lives far. Any online friend I make eventually break ties with me too. And none of the friends I have nearby or online currently are interested in lolita either. I just want someone to talk about lolita shit, whether it be comm gossip, recent releases, whatever. I just want someone relatable in my life.

I don't have to judge others. I don't have to spend time with people that are fighting. And, I can still have a blast in lolita alone or with my good friends. I tend to be a bit of a floater anyway, I will attend con events and be socially gracious without making bffs. At the same time I have hosted a few minor events (not at my house though) with success as well.

I don't know, maybe? I always figured I was just schizoid because I am happiest alone being a turbo weaboo.

Within a group or handful of people I try to befriend, one of them admits romantic feelings for me randomly after a few months or even a few weeks. Every time. Usually the others have been approached by the person about liking me so we get pushed together. The people who pursue me for both friendships and relationships are usually manipulative and chronic liars, at least to an extent. I try to give them a chance and at least humour them but find myself suddenly bothered by things that I normally don't care about, as if I'm looking for any reason to end the "relationship" and cut contact.

I feel like a supercunt but all I want to do is try to enjoy my hobbies in a different way, with others. Writing it out like this, I feel kind of depressed.

I personally just want to be in an active group that actually goes to each others meets. If I'm going to be spending the considerable amount of money I'm planning to, I don't want to just sit in my house or walk around my area. I want to have baking parties and picnics and cute shopping days with other people. I just get really dispirited that something that should be fun and warming like lolita has such catty, sour-hearted people in it.

I guess in the end, I'm probably going to be making my own events and perhaps my own, more active circle of friends. It's more work on my part but goddamn do I want a group I can bake for regularly and have parties with!

I hate it gulls. I’m so self-conscious about my body and sometimes I just look in the mirror and push my boobs together to make them seem smaller and I get to see the body of a cute girl for once, not the frumpy thing that I am. I’ve been thinking about getting a reduction but I know technically they aren’t that big (32C). I hate how they look on me though and I don’t know if there’s anything I can even do to naturally reduce them. I feel so dysphoric about them and there’s times where I just feel gross looking at myself in anything. It’s made me think some bad shit and I don’t know what to do

I won't deny it sounds like that because unfortunately it kind of is? Not in the "lolita is a costume for parties" way but I do wear a lot of other fashions regularly while also basically working two full-time jobs. One of which I own.

I know it's mighty autistic of me but being able to put meetups on my calendar helps me fit lolita into my busy life. It's also personally nice to spend my free time out being social and so meetups are a win-win.

What's not fun is having to deal with low-key bickering at every gathering to the point where no one goes to anyone's events. The only option is that I'll just have to host the stuff I want to do and if people want to join me, they can. Which is very backwards for something that wants to label itself as a community. I just want to bake pies and drink tea and have a good stressless time with people that share my interests; not take a one way trip into Salt Valley. I do that shit at work.

Yes, unless you're an a-cup or smaller a very significant amount of it is fat. At bigger cup-sizes it's majority fat. A unique type of fat based on hormones that can be stubborn, but basically no one is the same cup size when underweight as they are overweight. The only exception are dense breasts which are at higher risk for breast cancer and fairly rare. I'm even a sorta rectangle/pear shape and completely flat at a healthy weight, but when obese I was a (very saggy) c-cup with a much wider band. Now I'm at a 22bmi and an aaa-cup.

Whatever you are at a healthy bmi is your true size. When you're short like we are weight gain that other girls can shrug off is both more visible and more dangerous. You have much less wiggle room than taller girls.

Unfortunately all of the woman in my extended family are very top heavy and ridiculously overweight so I'm probably more genetically inclined to gain weight if I'm not careful. I'm also not the youngest motherfucker out there anymore so weight gets harder and harder for me to lose. Though being moderately active and being very food conscious has been my saving grace.
It's important to learn what portion size is actually right for your body and adjust it to how much you exercise. It's also extremely important to not go full - autism on things like dieting and exercise because you might end up burning out and yo-yoing back up. It's also important to not go back to the same old once you hit your target weight because you might just gain it all back. Your healthy life is your new routine. Though this is also not to say you can't treat yourself on occasion but make sure you actually moderate it.

For me, sure I can eat those cookies but I'm only eating two. I want that whole fucking sleeve but at this point I can walk away from it.

If you're gonna compare it to boobs, the current attitude on men's height would be like if people said anything under DD cups were tiny tits and guys would declare that they won't even talk to girls with DAD or lower cup sizes.

You've never spent another second on any other board I take it? Or reddit, any place with porn, any movie review, video game/steam forums, or any place where anime is discussed then?

The difference is, women can use pads or even go through plastic surgery, while men are stuck in their height, you can't grow 10 cm overnight.

Regular Chinese citizens were appalled by it, obviously.
But this is only a problem for companies if they're unfortunate enough to get caught. Chinese companies are notoriously lacking scruples when it comes to animal rights, skinning animals alive is not uncommon (https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaeltobias/2012/11/02/animal-rights-in-china/)), and it's only an issue if the public find out, which they're generally unlikely to do. This will be no different for rabbits, especially given the scale of Angora farming in China. Why on Earth wouldn't you assume this is common practice?

I too have rabbits and do not buy anything with real fur. There's honestly faux fur that looks and feels exactly like rabbit fur anyway but I'm not gonna crawl up anyone's ass if they decide to buy real irl. Most people don't take rabbits as seriously as cat and dog tier pets though that just proves they've never actually interacted with them. They're basically cats that hop but good forbid you tell someone their cat would look wonderful as a coat.

I think I have a shopping problem...
I make decent money but just recently got in over my head with an expensive lolita purchase. I can't help it. The wait of something in the mail, opening it feels like Christmas... It's one of the only things that makes me happy right now.

I'm trying to get into jewelry making so that I can make something with my hands instead of staring at my computer screen, but then I need to buy supplies and it is just a downward slide from there. When I asked for help, they tried to stop me from buying ANYTHING online, which just backfired. I buy personal care items like deodorant, shampoo, etc, online, and it made me stop caring for myself.

I love lolita, but putting together coords is so dangerous. I'll have everything I need but one thing, and the next thing I know, I've bought 2 or 3 more things to plan completely new coords around. The mail thread/Taobao/Aliexpress/resin threads all make me want to buy. Selling is so slow and tedious. I'm too depressed half the time to even get up from my computer to photograph stuff.
