Well it seems that Japanese "elegant gothic lolita" fashion has been sinking it's teeth into the American culture. On Ebay, for example, you'll find that the amount of auctions listed under "gothic lolita" keep growing and growing. I don't know if any of you lolies ever enjoy the amusing links from Memepool, but if you look at today's postings you will find an offensive post about Japanese lolita fashion. If you find this stereotype offensive or want to cause a general ruckus, please send your complaints to comments@memepool.com.

I found that out of all the auctions listed under "gothic lolita", only about 10-20% of them actually resembled the fashion in any way...

Oh, and that is so rude! Victorian sluts? What the fuck is that guy on??

Probably only 10-20% of them really meant to.

Did you see his entry about hentai? Search for the words "school girl". This person seems to be a critic of all things Japanese. e_e

XD From what I've observed of EGL fans in genral...a lot of 'em seem fond of l337, possibly because of |\/|36470ky0 (http://www.megatokyo.com).

O_o;; Which reminds me; I haven't kept up with that comic in ages...

*pouts* We ought to just ingnore people like that.

The "Victorian sluts" thing disturbed me, too... especially since one of the links he posted was to Innocent World. Er. Yeah. Yeah, Innocent World, Angelic Pretty, and Baby The Stars Shine Bright -- extremely slutty, of course! O_o

I must simply must say baka.

oh the Alias s3 premiere <3 where Syd says, "I would have waited," to Vaughn about if he was missing/dead for the 2 years she would have waited because she had faith. ;_;

Maybe whoever posted that was turned down by a cute Gothic Lolita!? LOL, the link for 'Victorian Sluts' is for my website - I'll probably start getting emails from people looking for 'VictorianSexyDethChix' now!

::shrug:: Some people are just stupid like that. Whenever something becomes slightly popular, they are there to attack it to show how "anti-conformist" they are. I've read several articles against anime and other things in Japanese culture.. I also find them really offensive. That guy obviously doesn't know what EGL is. Also he may just find it weird and that's pretty stupid. He doesn't really understand. x.o And I don't really care about people like that...
