The Japanese like cute and ambiguous things. That's why they make the males look like girls. (Just think of some RPG protagonists.)
Homosexuality has been completely accepted throughout Japanese history. Some samurai even claimed that the love between boys or men and boys is the purest of all. Women were seen as negative to those warriors. Maybe even the bringers of bad luck.
However, due to the western influence the Japanese have taken on a more negative approach to homosexuality.

What is it with all these Japanese threads? It's as if Japan isn't even viewed as a country, but a world outside of this Universe.
