Pants and pockets. For men a combo, for women a choice.

I have to wonder what is the implication or intention with the photo and the cosplay (thanks to the comment indicating where it comes from). I mean, no one chooses this display thinking they won't get attention, maybe she likes the attention, and good for her if she does. But the fact that she took the photo by the side of this sign... Is she implying that it helps that it's written? Enough for her to feel empowered to dress however she wants? Did she feel like she needed to take the photo by the consent sign to make a point that not enough people follow the guidelines?

I ask this because I would want to know if this is a sign (pun intended) that as a society we are going in the right direction, allowing her to dress in this outfit, or the contrary? It would be nice if the former would be the case.

That is beyond any kind of discussion about the appropriateness of it, in my opinion it is great if anyone is feeling safe enough to do this. Nudity needs to be normalized, nudity is not sexuality, but I digress and that's just my personal point of view.

I'm upset that signs like this need to be posted. I've only been to one comicon and took shitloads of unconsented pictures, because I was suffering from hella anxiety and would never have worked up the nerve, and because if I asked everyone I'd have been asking all day. Roadhog+junkyard? Photo. Amazing Link costume? Photo. Green Ranger hanging out of a delorean? Hell yes Photo.

Nothing creepy though. I went out of my way to not point my camera at anyone dressed even remotely sexy, because I dont need the hassle. I also dont need the creepshots. I have the Internet. We have access to more porn than can possibly be consumed in a hundred lifetimes. Im not about to go stealing apples when I live in an orchard.

What I've learned from the comment section of this post: dont go anywhere or do things at all for any reason

The sign specifically says to keep your hands to yourself. If you can't do that, then you're a fucking sexual predator. Anyone putting the blame on the woman needs their moral compass checked thoroughly.

That said, I most certainly would look, perhaps stare even. That's just the way my instincts work. I also see how people would try to chat her up. But this is definitely not an invitation to start touching her without consent.
