I'm perfectly aware of what vkei is. I'm simply addressing those who judge it completely on image. I never said it wasn't an important facet of the bands. But one can't judge their artistry on that
So I don't see where you find my "definition" (although I didn't even define it) wrong.

Is it...so hard to understand that yes visual-kei does take talent and like anything else there is a large spectrum

And yes every v-kei band does not sound identical which is something I could even show easily. I would think its quite obvious *sighs*

Obviously they are (most of them) characterized by an androgynous style (which can differ in style from sub-gend bands). That is the genre. What is to be understood is that if there music still plays a large part in their careers. Vkei fans I'm aware of do not base their fav bands on which looks best. But who has their faorite music.
being characterized by something doesn't mean that is all you are

Are you at all a visual-kei fan or somewhat or intensively listen to any variety of the bands?
