i mean on one hand yeah i totally get that but also i am living for tyler destroying gender even if it is for comedic purposes (speaking as a queer trans person)

he’s not really??? ‘destroying gender’ though he’s wearing dresses and the joke is supposed to be that He’s A Gay-Coded Man who likes to Wear Dresses and Go In Disguise as a Woman, it’s not like a clever wink and nudge it’s actively repeating the transmisogynist myths about trans women being ‘men in disguise’ and like agents performing some kind of gender subterfuge for personal gain, and then turning that into comedy where the punchline IS that he’s a silly (gay-coded) man trying to pass himself off as a woman?? like ‘oh haha isn’t he ridiculous for thinking that ANYONE would think this obvious man in drag is a woman, haha, them crazy queers am i right?’

Is there a way to attach text (made out of fabrics) temporarily to leggings? The leggings are expensive and I don't want to have "Fashion Po Po" written across my butt if I wear the leggings out-of-cosplay.

Hello there!

A few ideas come to mind here:

- Safety pin the letters, keeping the pins on the inside. This will be uncomfortable to sit on, but should hold.

- Use a basting adhesive. Be sure to test it in an inconspicuous location first to make sure it properly washes out with no residue. Here’s a sewist who tested the washability of various adhesives. Also make sure it is strong enough to hold throughout the day.

- Magnets, much like the safety pin idea, though again, uncomfortable to sit on.

- Baste stitch the letters down. This is slightly more dangerous for your leggings, and you may need a very trusted friend to help so that the leggings can stay stretched while you sew. Sew them on very carefully by hand, with long stitches on the underside and smaller stitches on the outside, like you are doing a hand blind hem. If you are careful, the leggings are sturdy, and you simply cut the thread from the underside to remove so as to not pull at the legging fabric, this is the most secure and invisible method and shouldn’t cause any damage to the leggings. This is the method that I would use.

- Put the lettering on a larger patch rather than as individual letters, and just tack or pin the corners. This will be a bit more obvious, though.

- If you can get a cheap pair of leggings off of Amazon or ebay before the con, use those and attach the lettering more permanently

I hope that helps! good luck :]
