And how is she not addressing gender imbalance/parity? That theme has been woven into the fabric of her music and image since time immemorial. She herself and the life she has lived are her own answer to the problems of women in Japanese society!
Sometimes this forum can be just unbelievable. Negativity for the sake of negativity.

What me and the other poster were saying, really has nothing to do with Ayu at all. Ayu doing this, is a great thing. But, this whole thing is also just so indicative of the problem in Japan of real issues never actually getting any attention at all. While the - relatively - non-issues get show boated around.
