"put a disclaimer" -- do you mean, put one in there or did you mean to say "but a disclaimer"? DUH reread, and got it. heh.
Eheh, thanks for the info on the onnagata -- what would that be, headpiece? -- the pictures I've found aren't always that clear. Ink shading and whatnot, I mean, and while it's clear there's something on the head, in the other images I've found (online, and in my own books, sheesh) the purple shades more into black and it looks like maybe it's a fancy headband. Or something.
There's something fascinating about how we (as humans) connect certain trivial things with strong erotic connotations, that linger even after the original reason is long gone.
