Um no. Both my daughters are kind of into this anime/cuteness thing, though certainly not to the point of dressing up and parading around in public. (Though my older daughter, who graduated from college last year, still carries around a pretty cool battery-powered Sailor Moon sonic power-wand, or whatever they call that plastic doodad, in her car)

The younger daughter even subjects me to mp3s of J-pop when we go out driving.

You're being misled by the word "Lolita" - in this context it's almost surely an Engrish usage, like "I hate myself and I want to die" (see:

) Anyway I guarantee you this Japanese dress-up thing's a thousand times more about wanting sometimes not to be grown up, playing as little kids instead, than about pandering to some sweaty old male's nasty fetish.
