I believe I may be on to something, however. These people are ugly. Therefore they likely have low self esteem. Therefore, they probably secretly desire to look like a hot supermodel (the females at least, if a guy desires to look like that, then we have more serious problems). Now, these are anime fans. So just who are the hot supermodels that they look up to? Thats right, anime characters. Therefore, in an attempt to try looking hot, and feel sexy, they dress up as their favorite character. Unbeknownst to them, they look ANYTHING BUT sexy.
This theory can also go apply towards why guys cross-cosplay as female characters. These guys have a secret desire to be gay, and take it up the ass. However, they are too embarrassed to admit it. Therefore, they cross-dress in hopes of feeling what its like to be on the other side of the fence, all in the safety of an anime convention, where that sort of behavior is tolorated.
So am I right on the money with this theory?
