It makes sense for the shoujo style to look awkwardly drawn in other areas because the face (ecpecially the eyes) are what's supposed to draw the observer's attention.
I DO find the shoujo style incredibly overrated though. Not that I don't like it, it's just used too much in the past decade or so. I find it very shallow when people bash a series just because it's not drawn in a style like or similar to it.
As long as a manga/anime can keep me interested and entertained for it's entire run I am content with it.~

I'm not really bashing the style, I'm just pointing out technical faults that seem to plague most shoujo manga.
Anyways, is there a shoujo equivalent of Shounen Jump?
