re: #400 reine.de.tout

Geez.
There are days when I’ve stepped outside wearing a tank top and shorts, and it’s too hot for all those clothes!

I can’t imagine wearing a burqa in the sort of heat we get.

But as you say - it’s not your decision, nor mine, nor is it the government’s decision.

As someone who has been known to wear a lot of clothes in crazy heat for the sake of fandom or general zaniness, you really get used to it if you’re smart about conserving your energy

I mean, guys in Iraq are toting around rifles and gear and backpacks and wearing bulletproof vests and they can do it in that heat, some lady in a sheet, not too hard if you’re prepared.

a thing that’s difficult is emoting and being “on” and in character when you’re wearing a lot of clothes in the heat. Drink lots of water in that case o_o
