You know.. I now realise why the Japanese gothic lolitas get upset with non-asians where the fashion -- a number of reasons. 1.) Most non-asians do not look good in the fashion. 2.) a lot of goth girls try to make it into something downright scary/sexy/ugly, not the cuteness like the fashion is originally meant to be, and finally 3.) a lot of people have the idea wrong, like the goth girls, they try to turn it into something slutty or something that they think is 'hott' but is really just ugly on them and really just screws over the fashion. It's a bit annoying, but it mostly just makes me shutter. I try to stick to the originals, you know, pulling off the cute look of it, the look it's supposed to have.

Yeah... I was raised to dress modest. I hate slutty girls in slutty clothes!

I'm sorry, but this post seems offensive to me. I'm half Asian, half German, but I'm going to go point out some things here:

01. Are you saying that only Asian people look good in the Gothic Lolita fashion?
02. This is the same as your third reason , they see the fashion as something different. There is no way to exactly copy it. Oh, and Japanese people mess up when dressing lolita too... I've seen plenty of photos of them dressed up that look absolutely terrible.

Here's what you said in the Gwen Stefani thread:
"It is the Japanese's style, though I don't get angry when another race/nationality wears it, but in America, the American fashion companies take the idea, then change it into something totally tacky and down right stupid. "
-It isn't really the Japanese's style. It is all based off of Victorian era clothing, which the Japanese did not wear.
-You said that you don't get angry when a different race or nationality wears it, but now you're ranting about it.

"(I've seen some horrible looking lolis in my time, even some Japanese lolis that just look terrible in the clothes!)"
And you just said that only Japanese/Asian lolitas look good in it?

I'm sorry if I sound pissed off, and/or offended, but that's because I am.

I agree somewhat, I have also seen asians that don't look so well in Lolita as well as other races. It confuses me too, I mean there isn't much differences between races. We are the same species after all...

I got in a huge fight with someone who was asian because I said that asians aren't better than other races, I suppose it's the way you wear it and such. It offended me in the forum where the fight began because I mean, if you weren't asian on that RO forum then you weren't "cute". I'm not sure if japanese Lolitas are really upset with non-asians wearing Lolita. They seem to adore some american celebs and put them on their magazines. They would probably be upset with anyone no matter what race if they showed off Lolita as a stereotype slut label. Then that would cause others to stereotype them and such and blah.

On another note, I'm curious about this article I read. They said that Lolitas don't cosplay, don't like it. I'm not a fan of cosplaying myself but I mean a lot of people in the guild are lolita and cosplayers. This all confuses me and I have no idea what to think. I was thinking of making a topic about it... So what do you guys think? o.o
