So the distinction I feel here is that women are people. If a man wants to dress like a woman, sure, most people can interact with women in public, whatever. If you want to call them both, broadly, a form of cosplay, then drag is a costume that doesn't fundamentally change much. Animals aren't people.

I mean, Halloween is explicitly a cosplay event which subverts social norms. I think it's pretty disingenuous to conflate Halloween with typical daily interaction

furry meet ups are explicitly a cosplay event which subverts social norms. i think it’s pretty disingenuous to conflate people with hobbies with sexual deviants.

Oh sure, meetups are one thing. I'm only talking about out in public.
