Weird, I thought conservatives were generally against that kind of thing.

and a surprising--to me--amount of cross-dressing

it would honestly be more surprising to me if they didn't cross-dress; I'd actually kind of expect a race of people that seem to possess a below-average amount of sexual dimorphism -> they can pull it off more convincingly to be more into it on average

your example is kind of exhibit A there, but in fairness he's not wearing the female battle standard of 'literally all the makeup'

It's not intentional adolescent cleverness.

Yeah, there seems to be a lot of the 'that' emotion in play. I don't have a word for it; I don't have a word for the 'this' emotion that makes you appreciate intentional adolescent cleverness either, though its opposite/suppressant seems to come from prudishness/disgust reflex; maybe if [the thing that suffers disgust] is the group you get more of the 'that' emotion, since the 'this' emotion doesn't really work if [the thing targeted for disgust] is not you.

Considering how many puns Japanese media tends to contain, at least to my eyes, there's very little 'this'.

There's a willful blindness to irony and/or satire in Japan

Do members of more homogenous cultures inherently possess more willing suspension of disbelief?
