No one was there to tell me how to deal with it or even tone it down. My parents even wanted me out of the Loli fashion! I still love it though. My only thing is, I can't wear a wig to school, normally. It gets so uncomfy after being on for 12 hours.

Peoe on the street were staring and some people were obviously talking about me when I walked by, ut at my school absolutely no one teased/bullied me and my friends loved it! A teacher even said I looked like a Japanese doll! XD So it's not that "Dutch people won't accept it" . But you'rw right that there are a lot of mainstream sheeps.EllaFreya https://www.blogger.com/profile/03102828253887165812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3015213982317225624.post-16871452611183547752010-03-27T00:32:36.676-04:002010-03-27T00:32:36.676-04:00I totally agree with this!

Even when we're at meet-ups and people ask us about what we're doing, we've started avoiding the word so that we don't get that "oh." reaction.Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02874988632757907191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3015213982317225624.post-3644796682901573092010-01-25T20:19:37.991-05:002010-01-25T20:19:37.991-05:00Even before lolita, I tended to dress up a bit for...Even before lolita, I tended to dress up a bit for school; my parents taught me that looking presentable was a sign of respect. Not that I looked like every day was prom, but I didn't wear jeans and an old band tee ad nauseum, either. When I got to college, the big trend was looking like you just rolled out of bed after a bender: Uggs, messy buns, ratty sweatpants with Greek letters across the butt, pajamas, etc. (Of course, I'm guessing quite a few of my classmates actually did sidle into class after blackout weekends...). That look's not so popular now, but in or out of lolita I still get, "Omg why are you dressed like that?" at the beginning of every semester. It bothered me at first, but I've gotten used to it. By finals week, if I do wear just pants and a button-down, people wonder why I'm dressed so casually!<br /><br />P.S. Thanks for mentioning the lab part! I was a lab monitor last fall, so I had to wear boring clothes pretty often. To compensate I embroidered molecular structures and bubbly Erlenmeyer flasks on my lab coat and rhinestoned my initials on my goggles.Corvidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12892976434554365897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3015213982317225624.post-26830336222788392452010-01-25T16:37:27.973-05:002010-01-25T16:37:27.973-05:00I don't know how it is at your place, but here...I don't know how it is at your place, but here in the Netherlands it's like: "omg! you're different!" Really, if you just were slightly something different you "weird" and so on..

It's of course terrible to be suprised by the harassment but don't automatically assume it! With such an attitude I think you'll easier be harrassed than when you go to school full of confidence! I have never been harrassed at school and I know many others who haven't as well.<br />I also don't agree about not using the word lolita, but to each their own :)Maaikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06101251291457119539noreply@blogger.com
