Clearly you proved that. What has sexual connotations is wildly subjective and plucking the opinion of one author/poet's critique from 15 years ago doesn't make it fact today.

It's about perception and feelings. If anime cat girls have sexual connotations (for a large enough group), that's the way it is. That critique didn't come out of thin air, and its age is hardly relevant. The association has been established. If you use a symbol that has a certain association, you shouldn't be surprised if people react to that association when they encounter that symbol.
There's nothing wrong with "subjective", by the way. You seem to think it discredits something (can't say what exactly), but this topic is subjective. It's not about logic (as if anything outside maths ever is).
