From what I've seen, most cosplayers are drop dead gorgeous. It's hard for me to believe there are are so many attractive female gamers.

There are prolly a few who aren't fans, but if I were to bet I imagine the vast majority are actually fans.

Without knowing anything about it, my guess is that some "professional cosplayers" may not necessarily be fans of everything they cosplay. I doubt you get into it without being a massive fan of something that originally leads you to dressing up though.

I doubt it. My lady cosplayed as Leia, she's not a fan of Star Wars. At all.

It depends on how much effort they put in to their costumes. When you see someone in hand-crafted N7 armour for a Mass Effect cosplay, then it's a safe bet they are a fan of the genre. But when you see someone put on a coloured wig, and no clothes, asking for patreon support, then no she isn't.

A lot of times they're just a model hired by someone else that is a fan of the character. Or trying to get in on something that's trending. Or just wants to dress as a random character that happens to share a resemblance to them. And there's nothing wrong with that.

As much as i follow those users on instagram cuz t&a ill agree here.

Putting on a wig and lingerie then calling it "lewd _insert character" doesnt really qualify as cosplay.

Selection bias. People only share / highlight the pretty ones. Nobody cares about fat ugly Rikku cosplayers.

There has always been a portion of attractive women into anime. I think they've just found a great way to monetize it.

I'm sure there are some that are in it for the money but I feel like like they're the minority. There are other ways for attractive women to monetize their looks without going through the trouble of cosplay.
