Ahh, the distinction between cosplay and re-enactment. (My game uses pedal-driven spinning wheels, because so far nobody's made any other kind. Of course, I also let my witches turn green, so yeah.) ... Actually, I think I'd be less bothered by a real solid "I put effort into this nonsense and I'm not going to break character" cosplay than by the off-the-rack Snow White costumes (except on small children. Small children always get a pass). Because it's... It's a 'living the dream' thing. They may not be playing the game by the same rules as everybody else, but at least they're playing it as hard as they know how instead of half-assedly. ... The difference between a garden variety fail and failing with style, I guess?
Well, I can hardly blame the guy, really-- those Next Generation pajamas they go around wearing look pretty comfortable, and it's not the silliest thing I've ever seen at Faire. The barbarians weren't just overweight-- well, the one etched into my memory wasn't. He was wearing a chain as a thong. No tunic, no trousers, plenty of armor and fur on his front and over his shoulders, those furry boots, but from the back... just one thick chain. And I went "Whoa, what?" (And I do so love a fat fairy. And of course a princess should be plump-- she's wealthy enough to have plenty of food, after all!)
You know, I was randomly researching Roman gladiators, and apparently? They were fed in such a way that they'd get a good beer belly. Vegetarian, high-carb diets. The weapons training worked different muscles than the abdominals, I guess, and the fat was considered another layer of armor-- it was entirely possible that a strike to the belly wouldn't hit any internal organs if there was a good layer of 'useless' pudge in the way.
But yeah. It used to take some muscle power to be human-- kneading bread for hours on end, for example.
