I'm going to pretend you all know who Simon Pegg is. I'm going to pretend you all know what cosplay, lj and twitter is as well. So let's start.
The issue:
Simon pegg tweeted on his timeline (while the Comic-Con was going on) that he did indeed love cosplay girls.
The problem: Some feminazis (excuse me...feminist who were bored that day I guess)
* I never said I was neutral to this.
decided to take issue with him. A shit storm of controversy ensued.
Here's my take on this.
If YOU decide to wear a Princess Leia costume because you love her and her tough stance on intergalactic politics, good for you. Go put on her white robe and sticky bun your hair for all the world to see. If, on the other hand you think her outfit while being chained to Jaba was hot and want to dress that way? Don't you dare get upset if some dude says HOT.
It's like wearing a skin tight dress to show your boobs and being upset someone actually comments on your boobs.
WOMEN are dressing this way to be sexy and noticed. No one is bring a power point presentation with them while donning a string bikini and chains.
And from Carrie Fisher herself:
The sauce is strong with this one
