She always came off as more Westernized than your typical Japanese, and having a gender-neutral first name don't think helps matters.
She's fluent in English, isn't she? At least I know some of her bigger songs, like Hikari and Passion, had their own English versions, Simple and Clean and Sanctuary, respectively.

But in any case she came too close to the west and became genderfluid because of it.

Why couldn't' she have been named Hikari, amirite.

I guess there might be some truth in the sense that younger Asian-Americans like to be more rebellious and only do things like this to mock the older Asians
Utada is a 38-year-old twice-divorcée and mother, though. Think she's realizing her influence is fading fast and needs to feel relevant again.

Utada basically like Naomi Osaka. An ethnically Japanese person who grew up in the west. In Hikaru's case, she was actually born here and currently resides in London. So yes, her upbringing and culture is basically very westernized. It's kind of funny in Osaka's case because every time she gets super political the Japanese news just kind of ignores it and sidesteps it.

That autistic word salad just reminds me of why I hate pseudo-intellectuals and faux-academics. Also I love the irreconcilable contradiction these people try to pretend doesn't exist while trying to reconcile the feminazi concept of "gender is a social construct" and the idea that trans people are born with the wrong gender and therefore need civil rights protections. Their entire belief system makes zero sense and is based on LARPing with big words to sound smart. In reality, a good deal of this nonsense originates from "academic" Marxists having to churn out garbage in universities in journals, etc. so they don't have to work for an honest dollar like normal people. The dense language is used specifically as a gate-keeping function to keep outsiders from getting in on the scam and has no other value otherwise.
