One Comic Con in Florida Reverses Trans Cosplay Ban But Others Worry comiccon florida cosplay
initially told attendees"Due to Florida state law transgender individuals using a restroom consistent with their gender identity in a government building such as an airport can be charged with criminal trespass. The law doesn't apply to private businesses. Due to Florida state law cross-dressing will not be permitted as part of the cosplay contest or at the convention."
Basically, that would mean no woman attending the show could dress as Optimus Prime. This comes after an interpretation made by the show of recent Florida state law aimed at drag performances that will heavily fine venues that allow children access to"adult performances", with the definition of such being rather vague.
After considerable comment online, the show amended its policy to read"After careful consideration, we don't believe that cosplay at the convention would break any Florida state law. TFcon is a place for ALL fans to enjoy and harassment of any type will not be tolerated. If there are members of the LBGTQ+ community that bought tickets and feel unsafe attending TFcon Orlando this fall please email [email protected] to request a refund.
That was seen as a situation not representing other shows, but I understand that TF Con's earlier decision gave some events pause to consider the issue. Especially those hosting cosplay masquerade events, where cosplayers take to the stage to show off their costume creation, which often feature cosplayers dressing in a gender opposite to that of their usual identity.
