I still don’t believe that the confession was racist. These problems are problems to the submitter. Nowhere did they say that they thought all people of color cosplaying caucasian characters was wrong. Nowhere. I know cosplayers that spray-tan their skin to cosplay characters with darker skin, like Kida from “Atlantis” or Chad from “Bleach”. Are you saying that it’s wrong for them to want to do that? Are you saying they should leave their skin like it is even if it’s not the same color as the character’s and they would rather it be? And if that’s true, what’s the difference between painting your face an odd color to cosplay, say, Princess Bubblegum or a troll from Homestuck, and spray-tanning to cosplay a naturally dark-skinned character?
