Except yea there is. It's called "the Japanese Lolita fashion trend about a cross of Victoria and Rococo dress". I literally have been explaining it. Sorry y'all want to remain ignorant that other cultures exist. I'd recommend you go educate yourself except we all know you won't and instead will just continue to be an ignorant dip shit who wants to make assumptions of others.
If this is the creepy hill you wanna die on, go for it.
If this is the judgmental and ignorant hill you want to die on, go for it.
It's only "creepy" cause you would rather make assumptions instead of just doing 5 minutes of googling and reading about how the fashion trend came to share the terms.
It is literally just a coincidence.
The Japanese Lolita scene is probably more pedophilic than the book itself. You literally used a bunch of creeps to defend your pedo kink
Love how you assume I'm a fan of it just because I'm defending someone's right to their own personal expression. Classic leap of logic. Still just as baseless and made in ignorance to still try and claim the fashion trend has anything to do with sexualization of children. Sorry you're incapable of differentiating it. You should work on that.
And the Lolita fashion scene isn't the same thing as the otaku lolicons. Again that's only a tangential relationship from how the term was popularized. But can't really expect people who make wild leaps of logic to care about something as small as nuance.
The book is anti-pedophile. The people that don't understand it's about the lies predators tell themselves are dropping huge self reports for narcissism at best.
