Victorian woman travels to Japan and describes Japcels (beyond brutal)

[EdouardManlet]

From Isabella Bird's book "Unbeaten tracks in Japan":

The first thing that impressed me on landing was that there were no loafers, and that all the small, ugly, kindly-looking, shrivelled, bandy-legged, round-shouldered, concave-chested, poor-looking beings in the streets had some affairs of their own to mind.
The Japanese look most diminutive in European dress. Each garment is a misfit, and exaggerates the miserable physique and the national defects of concave chests and bow legs. The lack of “complexion” and of hair upon the face makes it nearly impossible to judge of the ages of men. I supposed that all the railroad officials were striplings of 17 or 18, but they are men from 25 to 40 years old.
Fanny Parkes, aged six, said, ‘‘Papa, how very funny all those ugly men look!” and if she had been aged sixty she could not have made a more apt remark. The yellow, featureless faces, all alike, the bullet-shaped craniums, the coarse cropped hair bristling up from the head, the flat chests, round shoulders, and lean, ill-shaped legs, were exhibited in all their ugliness in western dress, for the first, and I hope for the last time.

Brutal, only an English woman would write that , where is she buried? so the gooks can dig her up and judge her.

Unbeaten Tracks in England

The first thing that impressed me on landing was that there were no midgets, and that all the tall, good-looking, masculine, built, long-legged, board-shouldered, wide-chested, strong-looking males in the streets would look like superheroes if they stood next to men from my country. The European men look most sexy in their suits. Each garment is a misfit, and exaggerates the bulging muscles on the wide chests and the slim waists. The abundance of hair upon the face makes the bearded men look rugged and warrior-like.
Fanny Parkes, aged six, said, ‘‘Look Papa, it’s Captain America!” and if she had been aged sixty she could not have made a more apt remark. The rosy, chiseled faces, all lean and defined, the sharp noses, the dense, wavy, blond hair combed stylishly atop their heads, the broad chests, square shoulders, and long, muscular legs, were exhibited in all their handsomeness in Western dress, for the first, and I hope for not the last time.
