  • Is it okay to fake Vitiligo makeup for a cosplay??
  • Cock_Inspecting_Asexual Cock_Inspecting_Asexual 7h ago 100%

    eyup.

    usually people who are offended by what I say or do are white. I dont really know why I asked this question knowing how sensitive some people can be.

    Context: I make a lotta slave/black stereotype jokes towards myself, I remember a friend of mine showing me this picture of a baby monkey and my immediate response was "Damn how'd you get ahold of my baby pictures??" It was funny asf to most, but one person was like "UHH UHH I DUNNO IF IM ALLOWED TO LAUGH AT THAT- UHHHH"

    ima just do my thing anyways lmao. especially cus the people who do got Vitiligo have commented here saying the dont gaf and that its cool. B )

    On the top is Fanon JTK and the bottom is a more lore accurate version of him.

    Every character in the creepypasta fandom so far is paper white, and if they arent white then their some inhuman color or a beast... For years, the fandom has always been dominated by WHITE people :p. so all of the characters are white or European in some way

    In his origin story, we was caught in a fight with one of his bullies when the bully has splashed jeff's face with bleach before lighting him on fire. After healing up and taking off the bandages, dude went nuts about how "beautiful" he was, before cutting off his eyelids so he wouldnt sleep and slicing a smile into his face. After that, he killed his family and did some other spooky shit ig.

    The vitiligo makeup is a design choice that I MADE. I wanted him to have an afro-centric look to him. to replace the scene hairstyle with large, matted dreads, and to add white splotches or scars to his skin. It was after the accident that the dude snapped due to his face no longer looking like his face. thats why I wanted to add areas of white scare tissue or vitiligo to his skin. I'm not doing it just cause, I'm doing it cus im black, and being able to put my own afro-centric spin on things, on a fandom that I like thats only really been dominated by white characters, is cool as shit to me. The vitiligo appearance is just another Black design choice I made cus its cool asf, it's accurate to how dark skin can react from certain injuries, and just an overall look that is unique to version of Jeff the Killer. In my mind, if I was him and was burned the same way he was; my black skin was now covered with various A-symmetrical, leathery white splotches; yea I'd prolly go crazy too. This is how I interoperated my race-swapped version of em

    THIS- FUCKING- FINALLY GOOD LORD.

    I really dunno why I asked cus like- 9/10 the people saying "ouuh uhmm, that could really hurt someone feelings" or that it'd hurt their feelings are either white or don't have vitiligo. This question woulda been better if I'd ask about it in a black community but there's not a lot of active ones here on lemmy it seems like? idk

    But if I was a person with vitilligo, I might be a lot more upset by it, especially considering that the character is a horror character meant to be scary to look at.

    jeff being burned white is not why he's scary but alright 😭😭😭😭 Jeff the killer is "Scary" because he cut a whole smile into his face and killed off his whole family. if someone assumes the Vitiligo makeup was only added to make him "Spookier" I feel like that says more about them than me. I want the Vitiligo makeup because it adds more character to my version of Jeff The Killer. Dark skin, long black dreadlocks and these bleached white patches on his skin... It all apart of the character design, MY design. It's cool as fuck, and if anything should be the opposite of offensive seeing more black people like me still active in the Creepypasta community.

    I thought over it for some weeks, and tbh- if someone is truly offended by it, 9/10 their getting offended for someone else, or are getting themselves mad over what deadass isnt that offensive at all.

    I feel like this sorta goes back to that whole thing of just white people(dont kill me for saying this it's just an anecdotal observation ;w;) being offended for something that fr doesnt effect them, no offense... Jeff's skin being pale is not his horror aspect, if people really knew who he was, then they'd know that and just respect the choice I made on the cosplay. This is like going to see a certain movie or a haunted house and then being offended because someone has on Burn-victim makeup/SFX scar makeup. I always thought It's weird asf for people to just kinda- pick and choose what they wanna be offended by and what they dont. Like If I wear blinding white eye contacts; the ones that make you look like you have no iris, that your eyes are blind or all white; I'm not mocking those who already have blind eyes, it's a cosmetic and nothing more, especially if its just for a goofy little cosplay like a ghost or Storm from X-men.

    Offensive is me wearing the makeup without the cosplay, putting on white splotches and scar tissue SFX and then just walking around like that in public where there is no convention; It wouldnt be in a costume either, it'd just be the makeup. That I can understand, cus unless it's just to see how convincing you can make your SFX makeup look, there's no real reason for someone to be doing that tbh, and if they wanted to spook people, there's plenty of other wounds and scars they could go with.

    "I saw another comment in this thread saying that portraying black characters as a cosplay is different than doing Vaudeville-style blackface, but most people in the cosplay community would disagree with that. Nobody has a problem with people playing characters who are a different race than the cosplayer, but the consensus tends to be that you shouldn’t change your skin color to do it. It’s heavily discouraged. “I can’t take off my race at the end of the day” is something I’ve heard from black cosplayers a lot when this discussion comes up."

    Me putting white splotches on my skin to portray a character that is a burn victim of some kind or that they had had lost melanin on some parts of their body body due to a traumatic injury to their skin ain't changing my race tho 😭 Like- I'm still black, I'm just applying small splotches of pale colored scar tissue to my face to look as though I'd been affected by a bleach attack.... Which jeff was. His skin was bleached and set on fire. I'm not painting my whole face white XDDD that'd defeat the purpose of me making it afro-centric.

    The rule tends to be that you shouldn’t change your skin color unless it’s a fantasy color like purple, green, etc. It very likely will be offensive to someone. Technically blue skin can also be considered offensive, as there are people in this world with blue skin, The Blue Fugates come to mind. But I don't think any of them care at all about someone painting themselves blue so they can look like papa smurf.

    To be honest, I'm not really sure why I asked in the first place 😭😭 I think I was just really paranoid at the time and thats why I hurriedly went and made this post. My general existence is an offense to most people by default, so me doing some funky makeup ain't gonna make much of a difference in that fact XD I'm cosplaying a fictional emo serial killer, any effort of being tasteful then is now automatically lost by that fact

    If its burn scars, then no. Its not offensive, its scar makeup/SFW.

    Offensive is when you paint your entire skin brown or try to paint yourself as a different race to play a character.

    Read my name and quickly the idea that I wanna see it becomes invalid 😭

    The reason why I get porn is because im often searching up art and characters.

    I have a heavy interest in hunky characters and bara lookin dudes. I like searching for art of characters that fit that or just artists that draw em, shirtless dudes is one of the things I- might be looking for👉👈 but that doesnt mean I wanna see full blown genitals 🤢

    My reason for wanting to keep safe search off is cus I dont want it omitting whole images or links. I would very much like to just have the NSFW stuff blurred but still show up. Cus sometimes the bot just gets it wrong and the image deadass isnt porn nor is it that bad.

    The sad part about that is searching for stuff like this gets you porn, but it's not that frequent it comes up so I stay relatively fine. on DDG it seems to pop up way more frequently than on google. And GOD FORBID I try searching for "Humanoid pokemon/anthro pokemon"

    :(

    In conclusion. I wanna see cute dudes and sometimes cute girls for reference on stuff, but I dont wanna see straighten up nsfw or only see nsfw. DDG Seems to prioritize the spicy stuff.

  • Ok, please don't kill me for asking this... I'm black, and I wanna do an Afrocentric cosplay of Jeff, the Killer. I'm planning on getting dreads or braids for it, but I also thought about maybe doing some Vitiligo-type makeup for it. but idk if that's okay to do or if that's offensive. I don't have vitiligo, I never did. The reason I ask if it's okay to imitate this is because Jeff the Killer is canonically a burn victim due to either fire or chemicals. Sometimes, if you have dark skin and get burned like that, you'll have white patches left behind once the skin heals which look a lot like Vitiligo. I'm unsure of what lines can and cannot be crossed when it comes to doing theatrical/character makeup other than "don't do blackface" Im autistic, so if some of the stuff i say is offensive just be aware that wasn't my intention, thanks!

    Im getting so sick and tired of Google rn. Reddit has become a better place to search for questions than Google has. I need a new search engine :( No, I don't want Kagi either, I dont wanna to pay a subscription for a search engine just to get what I want. I tried all the others, Ecosia, Duckduckgo, etc... But they usually fall flat cus they just don't have some of the quirks that Google has that I like, specifically when it comes to image search. I want a browser I can easily adjust to, which is why I want it to function/look like google. Yes, I did try searching for it, but I'm not getting anything reliable (how typical) Also, if anyone can recommend me a browser better than Opera GX that's **JUST** as customizable as GX is, that'd be great too. *Please don't bully me over using GX. Everyone keeps yapping about it being Chinese Spyware or something or other, but the level of customization I can do with it is a total godsend. I don't know any other browsers that let me have interactive wallpapers or keyboard sounds, let alone the silly screen filters! I like having complete personalization over my stuff, its fun for me.

    I was just wondering what the vest edibles are for motivation/creativity. Im trying to get back into drawing, Sometimes I snag a gummy that just gets me drawing for a while, but its a 1/50 chance. I really want a pack of em so that motivation is constant. ## **EDIT: DO NOT SUGGEST ANYTHING ELSE EXCEPT MARIJUANA EDIBLES.** **I have ADHD, so motivation is something I mentally lack. Do not tell me to make my own weed, and please don't suggest anything horrendously strong. Im not a pot head, I have a weak tolerance and I refuse to push that tolerance. Thanks.**

    I'm researching all of this, and it seems cats are the main(?) host for T. gondii. And yet it can infect humans as well. As far as I know, it does (sometimes) virtually nothing except either *maybe* give you schizophrenia or make you a "Risk-taking Asshole" for lack of a better term. What is even the purpose of doing this to infected humans??? WHY??? What kind of parasite infects a human with the only real side effect of "I'm just gonna make you gamble a lot and give you road rage." Obviously there's other, more serious side effects. But I truly don't understand what its goals are once it comes into contact with humans. Are we just another body to them? A scenario of "Oh well im in this human now so... Guess I better get comfy or whatever." Keep in mind I'm aware the Parasite isn't like a person, it doesn't just "do stuff" the way we humans do. It can't really think. My confusion stems from why it even bothers evolving just enough to be able to infect humans in the first place. Why doesn't it just stick with cats? And when it does infect humans, why does it just- not do anything half the time? It's like it only infects people Internally just to mildly inconvenience them.

    I've noticed something interesting that I cant get an answer to online. Whenever I leave out watermelon in my house (After eating it of course. I cut slices from the melon so what gets left behind is the rind), it attracts lots of gnats and flies without failure. After cutting and eating a Yellow Watermelon for the first time and then leaving it out, There wasn't a single fly that cared for it, it was never swarmed or landed on or fed upon. it just sat there for a day or so before I finally threw it out. Why is this?? Repeating this same scenario always gives me the same output. The flies aren't attracted to the Yellow Melon, Why?

    I write this with sadness knowing Alex Risen, Predator Poachers, Is a piece of shit racist asshole with no real morals and is using the "Ima pedo hunter" as a reason to just spew stupid shit no one cares about. I genuinely did not know this when I first got into his channel, and I was holding out hope that "Maybe he's changed?" Nope... Still being a complete manchild on Twitter. I don't really have issues with white people saying the n-word (it fr depends ima be real), but it's clear to me this guy has 0 understanding of black culture. For me- you have to actually understand black culture, black people and have a sense of respect for them to even fathom sucha word. But if you're just an asshole who spews garbage for the hell of it and uses baby diddlers as a means to gain popularity??? No. Go to jail. **(please don't shoot me for this opinion, I'm black myself, idgaf if my friends say it, there's a time and place, and I don't really let the soft-A control how I feel at all. In the case of Alex Rosen, it's not offensive to me; it's just disrespectful as hell.)** Ima delete my account from this website... The fact the CEO uses people's emails to bitch and moan about dumb shit like this is- wow... Not sure what I was expecting but wow. Im just Disappointed

    Ima start- I have an interest in both kidcore and Lolita ~(NOT THE BOOK, ITS A JAPANESE FASHION TREND)~ Fashion. I always wanted to combine the two to get this pastel, simple but kiddish style. Lots of baby blues and pinks, A whole lot of overalls and pig tails. Just cutesy and innocent :D It's like Kidcore but minus the Lego brick color themes. I'd probably call it uhhhh... I think Teenybopper would be cute! (Please refrain from insulting me in the comments thank you- I'm hella slow and sometimes may not choose the right words when typing. Thank you ^w^)

    I'm scouting for jobs I'd actually enjoy working at as opposed to just "getting a job cus I should get a job". I'm 20 btw, not independent yet, but I'd still like to have a job ya know? The only Job I know of that is mega lax with their dress codes are (i think) Hot Topic and Spencer's. Do you guys have any other places that are similar? I'd like to be able to express my Alt-fashion choices :D (Please dont be rude or mean in the comments, thank you!)
