Unlike the villain and hero questions, this one is not divided into separate categories for men and women. I suspect that it simply did not occur to the meme-makers that clowns could be female, although there are a fair number of characters who might reasonably fit into this category -- Juliet's Nurse, Maria in Twelfth Night, Audrey, Jaquenetta, Mistress Overdone, and the one I'm going to talk about in this post. (FWIW, if I were going to pick my favorite male clown, it would be Nick Bottom, for many of the same reasons as [livejournal.com profile] angevin2.)

we cannot lodge and board a dozen or fourteen gentlewomen that live honestly by the prick of their needles, but it will be thought we keep a bawdy house straight )

All the questions )
