The book is anti-pedophile. The people that don't understand it's about the lies predators tell themselves are dropping huge self reports for narcissism at best.

Love how you assume I'm a fan of it just because I'm defending someone's right to their own personal expression. Classic leap of logic. Still just as baseless and made in ignorance to still try and claim the fashion trend has anything to do with sexualization of children. Sorry you're incapable of differentiating it. You should work on that.

And the Lolita fashion scene isn't the same thing as the otaku lolicons. Again that's only a tangential relationship from how the term was popularized. But can't really expect people who make wild leaps of logic to care about something as small as nuance.
