goo Ranking took a look at something I wasn?t aware existed, Takarazuka Revue?s (an all-woman theatre company just 10 minutes up the railway line from me) list of 25 Uglinesses, specificially which of the 25 people admit applies to them.
Demographics
From the 5th to the 7th of September 2012 1,006 members of the goo Research monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 53.4% of the sample were female, 10.5% in their teens, 13.7% in their twenties, 26.6% in their thirties, 27.6% in their forties, 11.7% in their fifties, and 9.9% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.
The motto of Takarazuka, ??????????, kiyoku, tadashiku, utsukushiku, Purity, Propriety, Beauty, (the official English rendering seems to be Modesty, Fairness and Grace) is well-known, but perhaps less well-known is that behind the scenes (I don?t know if that is a literal or a figurative expression!) there is also a list of 25 Uglinesses. In the two years of training that all aspiring actors must go through before setting foot on the stage these 25 Uglinesses are hammered home, often literally.
