Ok well let's start with Japanese maid cafes, maybe we will be able to build upon that concept. Might see what I am getting at.

Is it creepy to be served by highly energetic girls dressed as over the top maids in an attempt to be adorable. Dancing singing and poking there cheeks in order to please your. Melding the lines far beyond normal human or waitress behavior for that matter. Perhaps creepy isn't the word. Uncomfortable may fit better. It's certainly could be an uncomfortable experience. There is something not quite right about the thought process that leads to such establishments. Which causes me to lean right back into the idea, is this creepy?

Can it be? What are your thoughts?

Leading right back to the original question.
Can something really cute be creepy?

Is there anything else you might know of that is so cute that it seems twisted and wrong. That such a thing clashes your concept of what you perceive and what is?

People can have some of the strange fears and phobias. I have known people that where afraid of fish and paper bags. Which knowing how little threat paper bags pose it can seem enjoyably odd.

Let me touch on your interesting assessment. It is an unique shift you have mentioned in terms of gay couples. Gay coupling has been around for a very long time. Wither some think it's creepy are not it's been apart of human society both accepted and not accepted. Funny how people can get together and just decide these things. When marriage was brought into the fray, woooh. That created a whole new sense of hostility. To a point where it was nearly a completely different subject. Before it was well, different society's different customs. A clash occurred when a society that defined itself by a set of rules that was feeling forced to change. Honestly, opinions on there rules have changed countless times. Making the debates so absurd.

Such a loaded topic in mentioning creepiness I do see your point on social changes.

Harem families. I don't think I have heard that term before. Typically I think of polygamy. A Harem is a personal house of sex partners who have no obligatory ties beyond this station. I certainly agree It's an interesting use of the word.

It would be fun to see people start compiling a list of cute things they think are creepy.

In terms of what is right and wrong. Well I believe lines can be drawn when pain and misery is created. Societies create boundaries for many reasons. Some reason are better then others and sometimes those good reasons get manipulated. I think originally boundaries are created to protect the masses. ( oh, boy I feel like I've completely lost my thread). Age of consent comes directly to mind. (I hope we need not continue these very dark frame of conversation here Pm me? I do however enjoy talking to you. It's just too open of a forum for a decent reply)

I do agree. We should be free to express and obtain happiness. I'd just like to add, so long as it does not hurt or disparage others.
