Well... there are *good* crossdressing efforts -- but the American scene is infamous for guys who basically insult the living daylights out of characters they purport to be dressing as. I've seen some outstanding male crossdress cosplay --- and I've seen things that make anyone of any orientation want to stick nails in their eyes.

I love cosplay... but frankly I know my limits and those limits are roles where "curmudgeonly Viking" might fit in (e.g. like a salamander or delivery guy in ARIA). If I were slight of build with more androgynous looks then more options would open up.
