Coming out of the Costuming Closet

[tiney]

To be honest I’ve been costuming for a few years now and I still have trouble discussing my costuming hobby with non-costumers and non-nerds. I have no issues talking about how I like to sew, but getting into what I sew and how I love to put on costumes and run around at conventions is a more private matter for me. I’m already secretive about

Nerd high five!

You're much more respectable than me in this regard.

Okay Mr. Penguin. I'm gonna take you to the zoo where you'll meet some nice people, they'll treat you real respectable like.

I love your costumes :)

In April I bought a flight suit at an airshow and told everyone it to wear when I got my own airplane. And while this is *sort of* true, I really got it for my Kaylee costume :p

I've got an Inara! XD Though I need to redo the main dress.

You should totally talk about it. I think we've reached a point in our lives where we're surrounded by people that we can be ourselves around. And if they judge us for our hobbies that bring us happy, then maybe they aren't worth being around.

You're so right. If there are people who don't like it or think I'm weird, they can go eat poop. XD
