This is such an awesome mental image.
"When the hall flooded with nearly 3,000 women, some as young as 13 and others in their 50s, it was a shock. “I definitely did not expect moms to come,” Felwa said. Back then, it was mandatory for women to wear the traditional black abaya, and often a headscarf, while in public. It was only when the women walked through the doors into the all-female space that their abayas slipped off to reveal an array of cosplay costumes."
- hammock 6y agoThis is what weddings are like (minus the cosplay) and it happens every week across the world
- groby_b 6y agoThe "change into cosplay" part here is the relevant part. Thinking you're one of only a few, and for the first time in your life discovering that you're far from alone is an amazing moment. I wish that happened every week across the world, but most of us will be lucky to experience this once or twice.
