I personally don't care, but I'm really just more curious from a different cultural perspective as to why it's supposed to be so comical in Japanese culture. Like the heavy one (can't think of the name) is always on comedy TV shows, and was recently ran on a SoftBank ad dressed up in a school uniform.

If you go into Donki, along with the usual costumes, you'll find costumes made for men that are like school girl outfits that come with wigs and stuff. It's supposed to be funny, but I don't get it. Not saying my humor is better, but I can't see the funniness.

I actually had the chance to meet Haruna Ai at a fashion show, and she was really cool.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
