Q 5
Gothic and Lolita fetish. What would you say to people there outside the szene what this is?
Can you describe the core of the movement?
A 5
I am poor at English conversation.
Therefore the explanation is difficult.
However, I explain it.
It is culture.
Music and literature and a fashion influence it.
Gothic & Lolita is fusion of overseas culture and the Japanese culture.
And it grew up in Japan.
And it is the one of the flows of the culture led by the girl.
A man may be hard to understand it.
And it is that the sensitivity that girls in the world have is the same.
The fetiche is not same as Gothic & Lolita.
However, there is similar sensitivity.
There is a favorite person with the both.
However, there is the person liking only one.
It is different by each.
