People gotta learn to make it look good, in that regards, Jerry Lawler is unmatched.

well, they do. but then there is the seedy underbelly of how recruitment takes place and how they are very much treated similar to the Idol industry. in ring presentation i do agree, id say that balance is great. I always say one thing they need to learn from joshi : LAY YOUR SHIT IN
Mean, I wasn't talking about recruitment because being honest a good number of companies probably have seedy practices whether it be American, Japanese, or so on, but that wasn't my point. My point was based on presentation and product. Because I think most Joshi promotion have a balance. Using Stardom as an example, you have eye candy in Mina Shirakawa, you have a worker in Saya Kamitani, and then you have Tam Nakano which is a combination of both. As well you have to take into an account on what a person finds beautiful, since beauty is subjective and is based on the eye of the beholder, and what they consider a good wrestler to be since, like beauty, it is subjective to some degree.

The Idol business in Japan is just as seedy as the child actor movement in Hollywood or teen musician culture. It's just differing styles and cultures in regards to how it works.

I mean, lest we forget that Dan Schneider (Drake & Josh, iCarly, Victorious) and Nickelodeon had a weird thing for a long time with his foot fetish.

How can anyone forget as that has become a huge video essay topic across various YouTube Channels.

This is the balance I was talking about. You can honestly have pretty girls, workers and girls who are and do both.

And absolutely on both work and beauty being subjective.

Yeah Schneider's a weirdo but I think people just don't want to lump in having a foot fetish as child exploitation for "reasons"?

If all he did was had Ariana show her foot in those Pear extras, I think it’s pretty mild to what some child actors claim to have dealt with so I don’t think it gets much attention anymore but it did blow up for a minute.

Yeah, I get you, and it is a weird thing since you could twist in one of two maybe three ways. Either way though, Schneider is on another level of creepiness as well as a few other who have worked with Nickelodeon.

I never said it was blatant sexual abuse, I said it could have been child exploitation. Nobody knows what exactly happened but the idea that Schneider got his rocks off to preteen feet is another level of creepy.
