Question

Women were banned from performing Kabuki dance in 1629 because many of the performers came from the "pleasure quarters" where prostitution was a way of life and public morality was considered to be at risk. So men took over and played all the parts.

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The shogunate was never liked or agreed with the kabuki and all the shame it brought, particularly the variety of the social classes which mixed at kabuki performances.

The Kabuki dance was banned because it was thought to be too erotic. Young boys also performed wakashū-kabuki, but they were eligible for prostitution, and soon banned wakashū-kabuki as well.
