butterfiy i distinctly remember you on at least one occasion making fun of jewish users for censoring the word god (“g-d”) in accordance with their religion so maybe cool it with the antisemitism allegations

also, yes, cherri is cisgender.

anyways: if you have concerns about the pxfc theme feel free to voice them in a constructive way. we don’t agree that having a theme based on japanese street fashion is cultural appropriation for many of the reasons jonathan stated. i do not believe it would not be cultural appropriation to have a lolita fashion theme, even though lolita fashion also has japanese origins. there have been concerns about cultural appropriation in pxfc themes in the past because there was a theme called something along the lines of “oriental beauty” which multiple users found inappropriate. if you believe this theme to be problematic for similar reasons we would love to hear why!

I’m literally Jewish babe, I can say whatever I want about my own religion. Again, you and Cherri are behaving identically: two WHITE bimbos who are screaming over marginalised groups of people.

Explain to me how “Oriental Beauty” is in any way different than “Japanese Substyles”? It’s the typical bullshit mental gymnastics you all do to justify your own bigotry. As a Jewish, part-Japanese individual, I am absolutely offended by the use of Japanese culture as a costume to be gawked at for a fashion contest on a game now run by insensitive, bigoted, hypocritical and quite frankly pathetic individuals. You do not get to tell me how I should feel about people making a mockery of my own culture. Would you react the same way if the theme was African Substyles? Obviously not, since black people are held in higher esteem than Japanese people when it comes to the level of respect we afford them in the context of cultural appropriation. The current PH endorsing this when they burst into flames about gender identity infractions is such a laughable embarrassment. Get it together, pork chops.

that's great! i'm ashkenazi on my mother's side! i wouldn't have guessed you were jewish, since you didn't know that not typing the name of god was, to use your exact words, "a jew thing", but you learn something new every day!

multiple people found "oriental beauty" to be offensive because the word "oriental" is an outdated term used to refer to people of asian descent. referring to asian countries and east asia in general as "the orient" has connotations of the time in which its use originated, including 1. the homogenization of a very very culturally and ethnically diverse region of the world 2. portraying the region and the countries within the region as othered and foreign from imperial powers in europe 3. portraying people from the region and those countries as exotic, mystical, mysterious, or oversexualized. "oriental beauty" brings number 3 to mind in particular, and that is the primary reason why players did not like the theme.

i do not believe that something like visual kei or lolita is comparable to "oriental beauty" because not only do neither of those terms (or related terms such as "harajuku fashion") originate from outdated and offensive english terms applied to east asian people, but the admiration and spread of those types of fashion are a direct result of the successful exportation of japanese culture by japan. on the worldwide stage, japan has IMMENSE soft power (ability to influence others through attraction and appeal) because of decades of this successful cultural exportation. the global popularity and influence of japanese media (anime, sanrio, etc), japanese cuisine (sushi, japanese noodles such as soba, etc), japanese manufacturing (cars, electronics), are all testaments to japan's soft power, and the popularity of japanese fashion is no different.

however, that is my opinion based on sociopolitical contexts. i am not telling you how to feel and if you disagree feel free to share why, or if anyone else disagrees for that matter. but i suggest you attempt to not insist that we validate your feelings while actively and deliberately insulting and invalidating others' feelings about similar subjects because it really undermines the point you are trying to make, and really calls into question whether you actually care about this. your feedback is appreciated! :]

Lolita-Lover

As someone who IRL has worn lolita fashion for ~15 years, and is deeply immersed in the scene through being a leader of my local community, staff for national events and having traveled to Japan for it as well.... Japan uses their alternative fashions as a cultural and financial export to the world and WANTS non-Japanese people to wear it. Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has assigned several 'Kawaii Ambassadors', mostly icons from Japanese street fashion styles, whose job is to promote and share Japanese those alternative fashions with the world. Almost all have English websites and global shipping, some even have physical retail locations and stock at J-fashion stores in the US. I've personally worked with many Japanese lolita/J-fashion brands at events across the United States, and they are actively working to expand their Western fan/customer base. While it's important to be mindful of cultural appropriation for any historical cultural dress, I can fully say that this PXFC theme is a great one and is a show of cultural appreciation!
