i prefer both i like both.
I don't mind coplaying as a guy, but it has to be a cute character than xD I'm cosplaying girls always, but at Abunaicon 2012 in the Netherlands, I'm going to cosplay Itoki Otoya from Uta no Prince sama ^__^
im cosplaying as male the whole time and at abunai2012 ill try to get new cosplays in for example mo from Dance central 2
There's something so exciting and liberating about playing male characters, I feel like often I'm enclosed into this female world of looking a certain way or whatever. That's why I'd so play a male rather than an average female anime character
i go both ways. 8D but actually my only female cosplay, til now, is death from sandman (i did a poor alice from american mcgee's alice when i was 12 but alas).
I will cosplay either but I feel I'm more impressive when I crossplay, haha! I would rather talk about men with other men than entertain talk of shoujo series and such, so I also have more fun at events when I crossplay.
