I mean, if you were a huge fan of a singer because they never used sex in their image and had a huge amount of respect for that, then the singer goes and does the opposite, its not wrong for the fan to be upset.
I haven't liked what Ayu's been doing as much as I used to since the release of RnRC. That was when I started to "doubt" Ayu. I don't hate her, and I still love all her old stuff, but I just can't get into the majority of what she's been doing. Its not that she uses sex or anything, I am a fan of many artists that use sex to sell music, I just don't like what I'm seeing and hearing. Plus, I feel she's been saying a lot of stuff that isn't true. Again, I don't blame her, she is allowed to change, but I don't have to like it.

I don't think anyone considers people like you not to be true fans. You voice your opinion respectfully and in an understandable manner, I honestly don't see anything wrong with your posts in particular. There's nothing wrong with disliking something as long as people stay civil and respectful.
It's people that constantly have to point out things they personally do not enjoy as gigantic mistakes, call them objectively horrible, obnoxiously do it every time they can and include things that can be taken as insults, either directed at Ayumi, members of her team or other fans who enjoy it, that are just plain annoying though.
