@stormthedevil: On the 13/9/2026 @Oz Comic-Con Sydney me and my friend @Electrosa had an encounter with a stranger. He tried to grab my friend, despite Electrosa telling him to stop I had to step In and tell the guy to go away. If you are new to the space PLEASE just ask a cosplayer for a pic or something do not just touch or grab them! #cosplay #cosplayisnotconsent #psa #consent #ozcomiccon
Genuinely the fact you had to tell a grown man to not touch electrosa is so insane I hope u guys are ok😞 me and my friends had a similar problem with a guy stalking us and the staff did nothing

EXACTLY! Surprised that touching other without consent isn’t common sense (especially in the cosplay space). Glad you’re both ok

Why do they act so weird too when you tell them not to touch them.

I was actually at a kids lego event wrangling one of my guys in a Star Wars Shadow Trooper armor and deadass a fully grown mother came up behind him where he has no peripheral vision and grabbed his butt and I'm like maam?! there's children around and he can't see you dont be touching on him like that!

There were so many instances at oz con this year with non consensual touching. Even the staff were doing it

How we’re still having to say “cosplay does not equal consent” in 2026 is baffling to me???

Electrosa :
He charged straight at us and immediately reached for my costume despite me repeatedly and dramatically leaning away from him, it's not as if we were unclear 😅

Might be a hot take but I can’t stand it when kids run up to you and grab you while you’re in cosplay. Do the parents not teach their children? I’m 100% okay taking a photo with your child, but don’t sic them on me like a dog 😞

I've been going to cosplay conventions for years now (probably since I was 16) and I have no clue how people don't understand that being in a cosplay isn't consent to grope or harass them. disgusting behaviour

Im someone very new to going to conventions and even I know this. i feel its common sense to not touch strangers without their permission cosplay or not. Im so sorry both of you had to experience that that is not okay

I went as rose quartz, I couldn't see or hear much. The amount of people who grabbed my arm to ask for a photo was NOT ok. A light tap is absolutely fine especially if I can't see or hear you but DO NOT GRAB ME. Also I got so many weird comments this year, more than any previous years.
