'I was like, "Excuse me?" Like I didn't get mad or anything. I was just curious. Like what was he thinking about the whole time?'

All Things Cute
Starting off lightly, we have the topic of cuteness. It is something for which all Japanese girls and women strive for. Keep in mind this ‘cute’ is different from ‘sexy’ or ‘beautiful’. One can be cute without being beautiful, however one would still be ‘attractive’.

The Japanese concept of cute revolves around several points, some of which are:

Clothing:
eye lash extensions
pale lip gloss
pastel colors
lace, ruffles
dresses
straw hats
pink cell phones with veritable handfuls of accessories
Physical:
White skin, pink blush
Flat buttocks (Yes its true. A ‘bubble’ but would be considered a negative in Japan)
Wide eyes (eye surgery is not at all uncommon in Japan, and is in fact the thing to do. Japanese women in general are dissatisfied with their narrow eyes and look to women of the West as the model of how eyes should look
Eye color contacts (Continuing on eyes, not only are they not happy with the shape of their eyes but are rather displeased with the color. They consider they have black eyes which have no interest or beauty)
Modest breasts (generally there is no great urge of Japanese women for breast enhancement)
Light brown hair color (Many Japanese women are bored to death of their dark brown and black hair color. And consider light brown, or blonde to be very cute)
Personality
The stereotypical Japanese personality is as follows:

Introduction
A Japanese schoolgirl has written something odd on her graffiti photo.1 The text is a combination of Japanese characters mixed with other symbols to create a mashed up collection of script that is not readable as normal Japanese. In one glimpse the writing projects novelty, graphic complexity, and ugliness. For some observers, in addition to being impenetrable the writing is aesthetically unacceptable. It is called gyaru-moji (‘girl characters’) or heta-moji (‘unskillful characters’) and is a writing practice originating in cell phone text messaging and email, but now found in other girls’ media such as graffiti photos. Newspaper reports about the odd writing noted that the trend appears to have surfaced by the year 2000 among high school girls (Shinbun, 2003, Shinbun, 2005). In early 2004 the phenomenon had become a hot topic on television current events programs. Foreign reporters such as van Blokland (2005, p. 68) described girl-graphs as ‘a mixture of Japanese syllables, numbers, mathematical symbols and Greek characters’ that ‘resembles hieroglyphics.’ It does not actually bear any resemblance to hieroglyphics, but for the uninitiated it appears as unrelated to language as Egyptian hieroglyphics did when first encountered by Europeans. This article will survey some of the notable features of gyaru-moji, called ‘girl-graphs’ in this essay, and will suggest reasons for their popularity and interest among adolescent girls. Most pundits claim that a desire for secrecy is the primary reason for its occurrence, yet there are many other factors that are equally useful to consider. For one thing, girls use this writing style to confront gender socialization, in which femininity is linked to elegance and refinement not only in their comportment, but in how they fashion their writing of language as well.
