Can 〜てもいい indicate you are giving yourself permission?


I saw this picture online and it was of someone giving their business card to
a girl (presumably to become an idol). The girl says in the picture:

> う〜んどうしよかなぁ 今キスしてくれたらアイドルになってもいいよ

Attempt at translation:

> Hmm, I wonder what I should do? If you kiss me right now, it's okay for me
> to become an idol.

When I was first learning it seemed that when it was 「〜てもいい(です)か？」it was
asking for permission for yourself and when it was just 「〜てもいい」it was for
giving permission to someone else. It seems like the girl in the statement
above is giving permission to herself or is my interpretation of the sentence
wrong?




" **Giving yourself permission** " may be one way to interpret it. You are
certainly on the right track with that.

In my own words, however, it would be more like " **agreeing (or consenting)
to do something** " in this particular context.
