Need help from anyone who has been to a con! - G - May. 13, 2009
I need help from anyone who has attended any cons (aiming towards anime conventions rather than sci fi). I'm doing an audience study for my final paper in my culture studies class which will be focusing on behaviors you see happening at conventions. Pretty much I just need your help listing other possible behaviors that I could write about in the paper.
So far I have:
-Cosplaying/Dressing up
-Attitude that Japan>Any other country
-Free hugs campaign
-"The game"
Is there any other notable behaviors that you guys have noticed?

- Yaoi fanservice (in cosplay)
- Yaoi fanservice (in bondage pants)
- Dealers' room gropers
- creepy cosplay photogs
- general otaku-trying-to-get-laid stuff

Despite the different groups and ages, there is a general feeling of community and exceptance......
Oh and they like to take part in large kinda cult dances: hare hare yukai, caramell dansen, etc......

Haha I got the idea of acceptance which is part of my analysis.
I can add the dance parts though to the list. Thanks Rocky!
I think I have enough, so I shall lock this now. Again, thanks everyone!
