Looks like there's a pound of makeup on her

 

[Woody Invincible]

Is #11 on the menu fried chicken?

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

Yeah, because women are saints, right? Remember the case of this guy?

People can find people to be very attractive. Shocking, I know.

It's different, though?

a) She looks like a kid

b) They're showing up to her workplace. She can't leave or be rude to the at risk of being fired. Unlike that guy, who 1) has authority and 2) can go to a different area

So yeah, it's creepier than that. Not saying that women can't be creepy, too, but it's different.

Not really sure why you're defending them, either.

 

[Replicant]

Dat first post......

The situation is kinda sad though.

What a sexy mofo.

 

[blakep267]

I was expecting a little better. Like Taiwanese drama level of hotness

 

[Dennis]

Nice legs

That looks attractive yes. It is the doll-like face that is unusual.

 

[thekonamicode]

does lolita fashion which originated in Harajuku happen to resemble clothing worn by little girls?

It's based on frilly clothes from Victorian England with large petticoats, so anyone could have worn that stuff.

 

[Two Words]

Looks like shes a 10

I think it's funny how much creepier adding a single letter to this post makes it.

 

[Hollycat]

Aww, she's cute!

 

[RockTurtle]

It's different, though?

a) She looks like a kid

b) They're showing up to her workplace. She can't leave or be rude to the at risk of being fired. Unlike that guy, who 1) has authority and 2) can go to a different area

So yeah, it's creepier than that. Not saying that women can't be creepy, too, but it's different.

but she's an adult woman though. are you attributing her youthful look as something detrimental?

 

[Leynos]

Nice legs

Female employees are required to wear short skirts, and heels? Jesus, why would any woman work there? Standing all day in sneakers is hard enough, but I can't imagine standing around all day in those.

I haven't met a kid that looks like that. She looks young, yes, but not like a kid.

And women also showed to that guy's workplace, and not exactly to take the train either. Tons and tons of women just went there to take pictures with the guy. How is that any different?

And according to the report, the girl also works as a model and actually enjoys the attention.

 

[jmood88]

She looks like one of those terrifying robot receptionists in Japan.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

This whole situation is weird.

 

[M52B28]

This real-life human being has reached the uncanny valley.

This was my thought. If I were to meet her, I would feel strange having a conversation with her. I guess it's the make up that makes her face look like plastic?

 

[Dice]

They wear them anyway.

Unglue your eyes from her legs and look to the right of the picture.

 

[poppabk]

'here's hoping that her fans view her as more than a french fry-slinging sexual object'
I'm trying to imagine what else they hope they are viewing her as.

 

[FTF]

Ex BigMachina.


Yeah RockTurtle below, she takes the cake. Just scary.

 

[RockTurtle]

DID SOMEONE SAY HUMAN UNCANNY VALLEY!?

yes she's a real person. and you should also look at her mom.

 

[LeeRoyBrown]

People flock to perve at woman who looks like child.

.... Lord

 

[LuffyZoro]

I mean, this is very similar to this story that was big a little while ago: http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/eats/photos-hot-taiwanese-bean-curd-vendor-viral-article-1.2268323

or this guy. It's the "Alex from Target" situation, just in another country.

 

[AlexMeloche]

She works in high heels all day at McD? Poor girl.

 

[Kaako]

These mothafuckin creeps.

 

[Replicant]

Is #11 on the menu fried chicken?

Yes. McDs sells fried chicken in some asian countries.

 

[Daingurse]

This the woman who wants to be Barbie? I had almost forgotten how disturbing this looked.

is this satire

 

[googleplex]

Absolutely disgusting.

"Lolita" - I bet they have no idea of what that means in reality.

It's also a type of fashion over there. Gothic Lolita and elegant Lolita.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Robotics

 

[neogaffer1]

My wife models Japanese lolita fashion. Lolita doesn't always mean that other thing.

dammit now i'm on the fbi watchlist

DID SOMEONE SAY HUMAN UNCANNY VALLEY!?

yes she's a real person. and you should also look at her mom.

some of that has to be photoshopped, right? outside of the face there's no way that waist is real

 

[Strangelove77]

Of course she looks underage.

 

[jelly]

Weird but also frightening dedication.

 

[stryke]

Meh, she looks like your standard 1000 year old dragon.

 

[Fitts]

All the GAFfers who use anime avatars lurking this thread are probably what's currently bringing the site to its knees.

 

[injurai]

Way to entirely miss the point.

 

[Lucis]

Ya.
People who doesn't know the culture of the said society usually comment about stupid things.

In China/TW lolita or (small loli) is usually used to describe young looking girls who are cute/sweet.

My wife have a full closet of lolita fashion dresses, it's pretty big among people who are into them. A week ago she calculated, the closet is worth over 40k USD = =

 

[Rivitur]

participating in promotions that required her to wear a little pink maid's outfit.

Well its decided! I've found the place I want to live.

 

[BennyBlanco]

 

[jerry113]

I bet 95% of gaf goes somewhere because of a cute barista

Guilty as charged.

I also may or may not selectively target to be in line at the cute cashiers in the supermarket.

 

[Opto]

It's pretty fucking creepy to take a pic of someone where they're working and then a bunch of men flock to where a cute girl may happen to be.

 

[ExplodingKetchup]

is this satire

I mean I'm not the only one saying this shit is creepy.

And for the record, I don't think anyone showing up at someone's job to ogle them is okay. But if you can't understand the differences in power dynamics between a server at a restaurant and an officer, I don't know what to tell you.

 

[googleplex]

Way to entirely miss the point.

No.. I'm pretty sure I made the point I was trying to make.

 

[soleil]

McDonald's is making its comeback.

 

[Nickle]

I prefer to show up to women's houses, that way I don't disturb them during their jobs.

 

[AtomskEater]

That's pretty damn creepy. She does have strikingly cute features, but flooding her place of employment to snap pictures is still gross.

Her boss getting pissed about it is funny, since I imagine he had a hand in dressing her up in maid costumes to promote the store.

does lolita fashion which originated in Harajuku happen to resemble clothing worn by little girls?

Sweet lolita can often look that way imo, but I've seen some nicely put together outfits that managed not to look that way. There's also classic lolita, gothic lolita, and a good amount of other substyles, which focus less on colors and fabric prints that would be associated with childish things. Generally the style is very modest.

I'm thinking the word lolita was taken in part from the book, but there isn't much else the fashion style has in common with it other than that.

 

[Bluth54]

Female employees are required to wear short skirts, and heels? Jesus, why would any woman work there? Standing all day in sneakers is hard enough, but I can't imagine standing around all day in those.

Is it that hard to actually look at the picture and realize there is another female employee in that picture not wearing a short skirt and heels?

 

[kamakazi5]

Guys are so strange sometimes. She has a nice body but that face is out of a horror story.

 

[RockTurtle]

Way to entirely miss the point.

tis a silly point though.

people have been attracted to youthful looks for ages.

a 60 year old millionaire going for a 20 year old eye candy isn't some mysterious aspect of humanity.

i really hope this isn't turning into a typical "anime gaf ugh" knee jerk reaction cause AN ADULT person looks youthful but SOMEHOW its bad to be attracted to them for their physical attributes.

taking pics and stuff is creeper status yah, but being attracted to her physical featuresis bad because of their own hangups? eehh....getting close to body shaming bruh
