And here's some worrying news. A survey by a pharmaceutical company says that about half of single people under 30 in Japan have no interest in having children .

Japan – Half of single people say they don’t want to have children

Check it out:

Japanese singles want to have children

Therefore, interviewees mentioned financial concerns and the burden of childbirth as reasons.

Of the 400 respondents aged 18 to 29, 49.4% said they did not want children, the highest percentage in the last three annual pregnancy surveys conducted by Rohto Pharmaceutical.

By gender, it was found that 53.0% of men and 45.6% of women are not interested in becoming mothers , citing reasons such as high cost and anxiety about Japan's future.

The results of the survey conducted in January came after government data showed that the number of babies born in the country last year fell below 800,000 for the first time since records began in 1899. To reverse the trend of falling birth rates in a rapidly aging country, the government launched the Child and Family Agency in April, tasked with overseeing child policies.

According to the study, which also included 800 couples aged 25 to 44, 48.1% of married men and women who wanted children cooperated with their partners' fertility efforts.

Finally, this number is a significant drop from the 60.3% in the fiscal year 2020 survey.

      If Japanese anime ends, will Japanese anime end, or would you prefer to watch an American anime?

    Aside from Japan's socioeconomic situation, which is a shame, the world has changed a lot and most women don't want to have children, whether for aesthetic or professional reasons. Now add that to frustrated men without social skills and we have a critical birth rate problem.

      Not forgetting that recent movements have also encouraged a decrease in the number of men who want to have relationships with someone of the opposite sex. Not only movements but also laws and attitudes that come from both sexes lol

        The Japanese man who is used to having a submissive woman below him does not know how to deal with more independent women. This is a problem all over the world, but there it seems to be more pronounced.

          Worse still, even those who have pure respect for women end up being encouraged to avoid even having a relationship with them because of extremists who use these relationships for scams, extortion, and the destruction of social and political life. And of course, to make things even worse, the same goes for the opposite sex, where women who have respect for men end up being encouraged to avoid even getting involved due to cases of abuse, both social power and physical force, scams that also occur in this case, and a host of problems related to personal and social relationships.

            The hole is much deeper than you might think, I don't think we'll ever resolve this issue on a macro level.

    If Japanese people stop having children, there will soon be no more Japanese people. If there are no more Japanese people, who will make manga and anime? And the biggest global crisis is looming...

    For me, the only advantage of having children is having someone to take care of me when I become a decrepit, messed up old man, and I hope that doesn't happen lol, raising children isn't for everyone, it's expensive, it's tiring, it's stressful, and many people don't have the skills to raise children, and depending on the time of your life, a child will only get in the way.
