Ayu always showed skin, Ayu always looked sexy on her album covers and even her kawaii visual releases have sexy outfits thrown in there. And this is sexy to japanese, this is what turn them on. The way Koda and Namie portray their sexuality has more to do with female sexual dominance and independence, than to fetishism...
Ayu sexual image has more to do with AKB48 than with Britney Spears for example... What IMO makes it even more sexual considering where her core fanbase lives...

Japans view on whats sexual has changed, a lot. There will always be a difference on cute sexy and sexy sexy as you said. but this is doesn't mean that sexy in japan isn't the same as the US. sure they're not used to people having sex on tvshows; but an artist being sexy is just as normal in japan as in the us. its just that it isn't quite THAT popular to play on sexy sex only.
LOL LOST MY CONCLUSION HERE.
Point is; ayu isnt the typical sexy in japan. when you say ayu, people don't think sexy.
