ProudJapaneseAUG. 03, 2014 - 10:48AM JST How old are you fans which like them? I hope under 20 because these girls very young

well I am 62 and I think they are amazing. As a ProudJapanese you should be proud of these wonderful girls, they are 15-16 by the way. Are you suggesting older people cannot like them just because they are young?, was it wrong for people to like Mozart and what about Shirley Temple? Any implication that kawaii is somehow sexual says more about those suggesting this than the truth. I don't see Schoolgirls as sex objects and there is nothing suggestive at all in Babymetal lyrics or dance movements. Cute is not sexual, it's the very opposite in my view, kawaii = innocence, it's not as if they are pole dancing. This band is the most talented to ever leave the shores of Japan, and you don not have to be 12 years old to appreciate their talent.
