lolita fashion (NOT to be confused with loli/lolita cp) is so cute I just wish it were named something else
lmao then call it something else because there’s a reason it’s called lolita and they aren’t at all using it because of cute fashion.
The name Lolita has nothing to do with pedophillia. It was chosen by Japanese designers in the 70’s because it sounded old fashion and European so it fit the style. Due to a language barrier they did not know what connotations it had outside of Japan
The Lolita fashion community is very anti pedophillia, please do not try to say that we are fetishists for using the terminology our community has used since the 70s it is not our fault
Lolita fashion was intended to be intentionally childish, but not because it would be sexual to pedophiles. The original lolita fashion movement was a symbol of rebellion, of girls reclaiming their sexuality from a society that told them to dress formally at all times to find a husband.
These girls created fashion based around a little girl’s idea of fancy. It wasn’t good looking to men, but the women who wore it loved it, and that was the entire point.
Lolita fashion is basically the Flapper movement of Japan (which, for those who don’t know, was also a movement of young women defying traditional gender roles by dressing in ways they found fun instead of in ways that were deemed appropriate).
This is probably one a few people have been looking forward to. Clip Studio Paint was originally created to handle making comics, back before it could even work in color. So they’ve put thought into making a good working environment to make panels easy for comic artists. In this tutorial, I will be covering the basics of rectangular comic paneling, with a look at what tool settings you need to change to create different panel shapes. For an in-depth look at custom panel shapes, I’ll be making another tutorial later. Read below the cut to find out how to use CSP’s comic paneling tools.
kaz’s backstory: really poignant and fairly realistic portrayal of poverty in postwar Japan, the exploitative relationship between US military forces and local women, growing up mixed race in a xenophobic culture and dealing with the simultaneous alienation/estrangement and attachment to that culture
