Oyama (Japanese theatre) → Onnagata — I have read a lot about kabuki and have never come across the term "oyama". Apparently, it must have been used by Gary Leupp in his writings on homosexuality in early modern Japan, but I can practically guarantee that the vast majority of books on kabuki, whether in English or in Japanese, use the word 'onnagata' not only for present-day subjects, but for the Edo period onnagata as well. I would therefore like to propose that this be moved (moved back?) to Onnagata. LordAmeth (talk) 22:47, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I added almost all of the Leupp references. I believe he preferentially uses onnagata. I found the page as oyama, although like you I've seen the term onnagata much more frequently. - JRBrown (talk) 01:44, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
