世論 What Japan Thinks

Perhaps to recover from meeting the people in the last survey, this survey from goo Ranking looking at the features of healing-type women will give you some hints from how to recover from meeting the people in the previous survey! This “healing character” is… well, just read the survey and you’ll learn!

Demographics

Between the 18th and 20th of October 2011 1,092 members of the goo Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 52.3% of the sample were male, 11.2% in their teens, 16.2% in their twenties, 25.7% in their thirties, 25.8% in their forties, 11.5% in their fifties, and 9.5% 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. I think both men and women were asked this question.

For me, I find that a quiet smile and long straight black hair does the trick for me, a sort of Japanese Mona Lisa, perhaps. I was going to get a photo off Flickr to show you, but searching for the keyword only gives me photos of capybara, so let’s instead have a healing woman and a healing alpaca instead.
