I see the media will again apply similarly stupid, facile and incorrect explanations for destructive social phenomena, as they do with crime, broken families, LGBTQ, abortion, etc...
Japanese women have their problems that are contributing to this occurring.
Childlessness is the price of socialism.
What can we do, if big numbers of young people, just aren’t interested in marriage and family?
I’ve heard there used to be more “social pressure”, if that’s the right term, for young people to find somebody and get married. Young women were said to go to college and get their “MRS” degree. This happened before my time, but I’ve heard our culture was very different decades ago. Young people were encouraged to get married. Young people wanted to get married.
Nowadays, there seems no social stigma or sanction against not being married and having children.
I know some people, friends of the family, a number of families with adult children in their 20s and 30s. The vast majority of those adult children are not married. Few of them have children, so the next generation of those families will be smaller than the previous generations.
When else would they have them?
They will have even fewer “crumb crunchers” after taking the parasite filled “cov-19 vaxx”.
If I was young and unemcumbered, I could offer some assistance.
There are millions of Filipinos, Vietnamese, and Westerners who would jump at the chance to immigrate and raise the Japanese population both now and in the future. The Japanese would rather allow their society to cease to exist. Short of forcible immigration (cf. “Eagle Pass”), that isn’t going to change.
None of those are about family/marriage and children.
What have been the job prospects of young men there for a generation or more?
Oh.
Well, train them to be childless and give them an environment that upholds childless and they will obey.
Women live having children if it is supported they will have many.
Young Japanese men as “salaryman” are expected to work long hours and to get ahead in the business culture need to spend time drinking with the bosses after hours. Young Japanese men also are immersed in a fantasy world of anime culture and do not know how to have a real dating experience. This problem has been brought on by a rigid Japanese culture.
Declining birth rate will soon be a topic from the VAERS reports of Adverse Reactions to the CoVID experimental gene therapy, applied directly, or, as we are finding out, from shedding of the ‘spikes’ from a ‘vaccinated’ population.
