It was even more fucked up than that , it was actually little boys , before they reach puberty all boys had to wear this type of feminine clothing and did this hairstyle to indicate that they were at the age for being literally looked at as sexual beings and even assaulted by men , they could have sex with them and they couldn't refuse but at the same time if they enjoy the sex with them they are considered dirty and not pure so they literally have to hate it and consider itvas rape and once they are old enough they should move on from this and never be attracted to men cause that is immoral unless they are a child , the irony
This is semi-real life story haha. In real life, Mori is one of Oda's lover boys (it was a culture in old Japan for having affair with boy it's called as shudo) but with mage hair. I'm curious if they'll end firing themselves or Mori will back to modern world and meet Oda in his reincarnation.
