Childbearing seems to be in the decrease globally in the developed world. While we have niche dating apps on our cell phones to net a potential date and perhaps embark on a relationship, younger generations tend to miss out on the next steps of marriage and having babies. Thus many nations are recording lower birth-rate figures, and nowhere is this more noticeable than in Japan. But is it just the lack of marriages that is responsible for the drop of 1 million people in Japan’s population statistics? Or are other factors at play? why is Japan’s population decreasing?

Currently living and working in Japan, I can tell you the REAL reason. Japanese work culture. It's the base of the vast majority of problems in this country. People don't see a point in sex or getting married because they spend the majority of each day at work. It is normal to work 10-12+ hours a day followed by work parties or other work related events. The whole "gambare" attitude here is killing the country.
Agreed. But I say let them fall.
Finaly someone with Real aswer
I would agree. Also live and work in Japan. I would also add that Japan is a very homogeneous society, Japan for the Japanese (which I totally get) they are very kind to foreign tourists but when you live here you see a totally different side. Unfortunately this leads to a lack of innovation and fresh ideas outsiders can bring. There is a staunch stubbornness here to any kind of change.
good its natural selection there needs to be balance
Why? Because of the money? What's the point if you can't use it?
Best pick up line : "ayyy girl ? You interested in the raising of our country population ?"
hhh let me guess you re still a virgin ?
One boot to the boys later...
@Aguila701 *FORCES IT*
I'm just kidding
😂
@@ssjstephen From their name I can guess they're a virgin for other reasons.
It's because they created Anime, now they can't get a real girlfriend and now they're stuck with their waifu.
@nature giver it's a joke
@nature giver because of anime
It’s because they overwork instead of focusing on family
Anime is gaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy
Anime is a mistake
Japanese government:lets make everybody work to death, without any chance of creating a family
"Population decreases"
Japanese government: :0
😂
It's not funny.
@@collenyt9243 yea.. But it is the truth!
@@diceyDA no population in Japan is as the same as America.
@@collenyt9243mmm.. That's not what i meant. I meant there people will work for very long hours and it is a country of strict punctuality.. Even for being 1 min late. The driver is punished.
It seems there's a lot of stigma attached to living with you parents in the west. In asian countries its fairly normal. In Asian countries if you are living with your parents it doesn't mean that you don't have a job or aren't successful its just that children take care of their parents at the old age rather that letting them live alone.
The Network yeah here’s the thing though in many western countries if you do live with you parents you’re likely not making enough money to provide for yourself even if you have a job especially if you’re a college student this is extremely true.
In India(& other eastern countries) a person prefer to stay with their parents even if he is a millionaire or broke..Because its normally a thinking that just how parents took care of us in childhood days now its our turn to take care of them in their old age.
@@ajinkya3780 same with indonesia, but woman and her husband live with her parents are more often.
well said
Same here in slavic countries tbh
Don’t let this video distract you from the fact that Mr. Krabs sold Spongebob’s soul for 62 cents
I remember that episode.
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And were bringing this up now? after how many years? xd
Kirzuo As an adult I agree this is an important issue as it shows flaws in capitalism and is an allegory to the Red Revolution as spongebob representing the worker. And krabs being the bourgeois who expose the workers and stopped from revolutionizing means of production. As sponge bob is stuck with the spatula and frying Krabby patties. The bourgeois will not keep the workers of the world like spongebob in their chains of the bourgeoisie society we live in now. WORKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!
Yeah he easily could have gotten at least $2
Meanwhile in America, kids are getting pregnant as teens
Edit: Wow, I completely forgot I wrote this comment. I’m saying this because as an American myself, I’ve seen many teenage pregnancies. I’m aware that unfortunately, it’s also common in other countries but teenage pregnancy rates are going down in many of those countries and I’m glad to hear that.
Rainy Day teen pregnancy rates are dropping.
Teen rates are dropping
Its actually dropping as well as marriage... With women gaining freedom, marriage between 2 people isnt worth it anymore, with men and women realizing it.
I live in America i can confirm this, Teens of young ass adults fresh out or high school
Birth rate in usa and number of births are going down

There are a lot of factories that are getting robots to replace workers. There’s a short documentary about it, I just don’t remember the title name. The people who work in that factory also expressed how they view these robots like a comrade. It’s very interesting, but worrying since Japan already struggles with providing jobs.
That's already the plan
The real reason is super long work hours, long commutes, high stress jobs, some of the highest suicide rate and depression rates in the world and a traditional idea of the mother giving up her career for children. Companies will also often not hire mothers. No one likes those answer though.
This. I'm shocked the video didn't mention it. It's been well documented and I've read many articles explaining how toxic Japanese work life is to a couple.
Thank you for saying what this video felt too pc to say. These are facts people, no matter how unpleasant, you can't change what you don't acknowledge 😥
Yep, unless you’re very well off it’s just not a wise decision financially to have children at all in Japan.
how is that "pc"?
what politically correct even means nowadays? people just use it to label anything they dislike
People like to say that it’s sex robots and anime. A lot of people who don’t want to get Married because of this. Because of this everyone want to do what they want to just ignore this and say that there cars plant manger didn’t work themselves to death I want to have a family one day I have friends in Japan too
Man there sure are a lot of white people in this video about Japan

Nice joke 10/10 comedian
I give that joke a rating of 9/11.
You forgot that in Japan a lot Japanese are working alot of hours each day and there's other works two job's just to cover payments and life goals. That's why many are stressed out when coming out from work. Also some can't make it in their home and just get a hotel to sleep till they go back up and continue working. It's the real reason why population growth is decreasing and last not forget the suicide rate there as well.
I heard of people dying at their desks from over working to death. Its a real problem there and probably needs to be fix.
@@inexpertxennial6067 true but the government laws are different from other countries. And I think in my opinion is that they are doing this to control human populations because it was getting to crowded in city areas. That's why prices goes up when it comes to renting a apartment of your own and having a family with it is very hard to handle to cover the bills while feeding everyone. That's why some Japanese people that do business travel outside of their own countries to make money to help support their families. but again government is not doing anything but only dropping retirement age to 56 years old.
Yeah...
Phoenix mendoza49020 (a lot)= correct. (alot)= idiot
It's also because women there aren't given much social acceptance to work after getting married. So most women there don't wanna marry since there is no co-dependent relationship there. Plus both men and women have really screwed ideas about each other there. The guys exaggerate on how women are dumb and the women there most likely see men as dirty minded people since they have ultra feminists there too
It has to be exhausting for the younger generation of Japan to work that hard, live in clogged cities and adhere to strict social structures in place for centuries.
Its not any different to living in Sydney, New york or London.
Yeah it's not that different from other places. The main thing is pressure to work but the fact that there are less people means the quality of life will increase.
@Bear Arms it isnt decadence
That already happened twice. I think we have more to learn from Japan than they have to learn from us at this point.
@Horseless Headless Horseman nah stay away
A 100 year later:
Rip japan we will all miss you your anime are the best
oh noo :(
This is an interesting question you've made.
Lets say this is true, 100 or less years from now, Japaneses do go 'extinct' so to speak, so.....what will happen to the land of Japan?
Or, even if all the population just up and leaves, many Japaneses are immigrating to either Australia or the U.S.A., so the question remains, what will happen to the land of Japan in either scenario?
Could the nation that claims, "We do have the most Japanese decent" or in the case of 'up and leaving' say, "We have the most 'native born' Japanese" and claim the land that way?
Has this even ever happened in Human history before?
Would or could there be a war over it?
Or, lets say the Japanese population is all gone, but the problems between North and South Korea, with China and the U.S. remain, could the population of South Korea move to Japan and claim a new nation, how would that affect the political landscape, I wonder?
It will be called the Chinese People's Republic of Japan
Anime will probably be already taken over by other countries, plus animators in Japan barely have the rights to make a living so yea, I’m gonna predict that Korea or China might be the new face of anime by then if this situation gets worse.
No please don't be true
Japan is so focused on having a great career at a young age that the stress starts at a young age. When they are kids, you are sent to various after school programs and study really hard to get into college. Once you are in college, you have to focus on having a great career. The culture isn't relaxed at all. Korea is currently decreasing their population too. I am currently working in Korea and these poor children do nothing but school and study all week long. No mini vacations to hike or weekend trips to a nearby city or quick playground play date. It's quite sad. To be the top in education comes with a price. Coming from America, I guess it is worth not being number one in education if it means kids can be kids.
to where?
they forgot to live like humans........trying to make robots ..... become themself
what's the point of it all...
There is something to learn from Japan and Korea. Kids in America play too much. Schools suck.
Moom u are too sweet
The cost of living is to high, even in the USA. One person with a full time job used to be able to support a family. Now a couple both with full time jobs is still barely getting by, so who has money and time to good parents?
Drivertilldeath my parents have full time jobs and we own three houses
@@bigblue8945 what's your point? If your parents are in high paying careers it's no surprise they have three houses. He's talking about normal families. Not yours.
It's all millennials fault !! Lol
Fear The Reaper they don’t have high paying jobs 😂
Advanced moisture What jobs do they have... for uh... research purposes
They also don't want to have any children because school is very expensive there.
Right
And now more youngsters which now have already become minority there only wanna date with anime girls
School is expensive everywhere

Teen pregnancy rate is dropping
It's simple. The destruction of family values, fragility of the economy, culture of overworking, and the culture of focusing on careers over family is what is destroying the fertility rate in every "modern" country.
Anything else is a symptom.
FACTS
I don't disagree but please define 'family values'
@@foreverdumb7381 Right? "Family Values"
I do disagree a little. A better definition is social factors are influencing the birth rate significantly. HOWEVER that was created by much, much lower child mortality rates and living longer. Hopefully this won't turn out like the universe 25 expirament for some countries.
@@foreverdumb7381 family values are classically defined at the union between to individuals where raising a child is the primary focus, the main resource provider has the authority over the unit, and all members work together to provide for, and take care of the youngest members, while showing respect and honoring those who came before.
No one in Japan considers family to be first and most valuable thing. If you ask a Japanese he will definitely say work is most important. Their mindsets are stuck in post war times where murica nuked them and they had no choice to rebuild the country by working extra hard. If you work from 8 till 22 you don't have time for family at all. Try riding a 22:00 train in Japan and look at those half-dead office zombies in business suits. Bet you won't be able to see a scene like this in any country. Average salary in Japan is around $2000 now usually with 30 hours of overwork per month already included in this salary, meaning if you don't do these 30 hours overwork you would get even less. Which is ridiculous since you can just go and do baito and get $1500 a month much easier without overworking like a mule. Some do overwork because they want extra money (sometimes overwork isn't even paid at all, google "black company"). Sometimes people overwork simply because leaving earlier than your boss is considered very rude and is a sure way to make everyone in the company hate you fast. And that boss will be sitting there until last train because he has an angry wife at home he doesn't wanna see. I'm not even starting about how japan is all about your image and reputation. No one cares what you can do and what person you are. Everyone cares only about how low can you bow and how hard can you kick your boss' ass by sitting there being unproductive while pretending to be working. Yay for totally not-asinine Japanese work culture.
Half of Japan's problems would be easily solved if Japanese didn't apply their Bushido mentality to modern lifestyle. But it will never happen since children are brainwashed by schools since young age into these "replaceable gears of the society, where you have to suppress your emotions and never voice your opinion, while enduring all the shit flying towards you". The amount of pressure from society is hard to explain if you never been to an asian country before. And you wonder why the suicide rate is so high...
Japan is awesome if you a short term visitor. But if you stay and live here you will start seeing this fucked up society from inside and will start questioning why would anyone wanna live in this depression-land to begin with.
It's especially mind boggling to me when americans move to japan. The salary in usa is so much higher. You can find a good job where you and your skills will be valuable and won't be treated like a worthless drone. You won't be living in a room/house the size of a wardrobe and you will have all the time with your family. Your children won't be bullied and treated like dirty peasant half-bloods. And you won't have to deal with general animosity by the locals to you as an alien. Of course, on the positive side you get to live in a very safe country, eat delicious food and travel to beautiful places, but the price you have to pay for this isn't worth it. Ask native English speakers who work as teachers here in Japan for example what shit they have to go through on daily basis. Even Japanese people themselves who happen to go live abroad tend to never come back to their previous prison-like life in Japan..

That kind of mindlessness is what got them into ww2 and got them nuked. Its called SELF discipline. If other people are making you do it, its not the self discipline, its just regular enforced discipline. Shit the Japanese

3 reasons
1:Kids are overrated
2:Hentai

@@nein9082 but india will have the highest population
We need to castrate them
@@atormentaalmas4269 wouldn't that be counterproductive since we're talking about getting rid of Japan's decreasing birth rate
The hours of work don't affect that way, for example: the hardest working country is Mexico and they have increasing population
Long working hours , high cost of living . Go home tired sleep .
I heard many ppl sleep in some lan cafe every night and go to work in the morning . And its cheaper than renting an apartment to live in .
People are seeking romance/lust but not love and marriage itself.
Just the thought of supporting ur wife and child gets ur mind crazy . Cause after you got ur family to support you have not much left to spend on ur hobby on things you wants to enjoy. Its a monotonous lifestyle until ur children are old enough to support you . By that time you're too old to do the things you always wanted to do.
I can imagine why they feel more happy being single . They want to be happy more than anything
Dang, wish i could do that here
It's sad. Japan is basically abusing and exploiting its workers and yet no one reforms those laws because they're so ingrained in their culture's identity
If I was Japanese I would join the ranks of the hikikomori.
I am still doing what I want to do, drawing comics. 30, still single, living in a third-world Malaysia in Borneo island where my peers have difficulties looking for stable jobs. I only got money through nepotism even though I only sold my comic books through exhibitions but in my hometown.
I mean America isn’t much better in California more and more people are working multiple jobs and getting taxed out of there homes etc
All valid points, but you forgot the most important one. Young adults in Japan are pressured to work themselves to death. Which means they have little to no time for social activities other than with colleagues or family. Abenomics also failed spectacularly, so thats another thing making people reluctant to get married. Thanks to the current state of politics, Marriage = Much more expensive than being single. Japanese culture is still very patriarchal, and as a result women there are pretty squemish about tying the knot. (Because the wife is expected to raise children.)
I don't see Japanese culture as being patriarchal being a good reason for women being "squeamish" of marriage.
Housewives, as I've been told, get their husbands pay and give him an allowance. He works over 60 hours a weak and is essentially taxed by his wife for the family. This isn't beyond the norm as even in the US women are responsible for the household spending and majority of that money, if husband/man isn't the sole provider, comes from said husband/man.
Patriarchal norms are men protect and provide for their wives and children.
They have to work themselves till death because of how small their population is, someone gotta pay the tax.
Isn't this the case for pretty much most of the capitalistic world?
Why i still thinks that was a nice cghoice?
They aren't marrying because men aren't patriarchal enough. Patriarchal society isn't bad at all.
All the world: people feel bad for being 20 and virgin
Japan: *Normal to see a 30 years old virgin and kissing an anime pillow*
Edit: it's a joke pls don't get triggered like some of the guy's that responsed to me
They also exist outside of Japan. We call them weeaboos.
It's actually more common place out of Japan.
Hi I am outside Japan. I feel bad for those being 20 and not a virgin. There is nothing wrong with being single for life. It is a lifestyle choice and a privilege. Not everybody wants to get married and have babies, even in western countries, so don't stereotype.
That's unfortunately the single person's lie, when it sounds too good, it always is, there's no escaping commitment or responsibility.
The West*
lol being 20 and virgin is normal in many other asian countries like in mine. its not a popular idea to hook up in bed with people here. only some few who like that and usually those people are influenced by western priorities. this trend has only been increasing ever since some decades ago in the late 20th century. it would be weird and taboo if you already had children or had any sexual contact when you haven't even graduated school. some few people do have girlfriends or boyfriends already though. its not something that usually crosses their mind to have sex. maybe only rare times when they somehow felt a bit horny but usually it reaches usually with just a kiss but there are some reports of unfethered pregnancies leading to wedlock but this is not frequent.
Fun fact: Tokyo has a bigger population than all of Canada.
Sebastian1010 yep! Same as California, Guangdong, etc

Michael L Speaking of hentai; did you read Japan’s most recognized hentai, Kinoko Nasu’s Fate/Stay Night?
my bf is full japanese and we started dating in college and he is from tokyo and he said that people in cities are way more into getting a education and working only on jobs and that people in the countryside are WAY more into having a family. he lives in tokyo but his older brother who is 27 lives in the countryside about 8 hours away and his brother got married at 18 and already has 3 children, i feel its just the way society is over there and why the suicide rate is so high because people in cities feel as if they fail at work they have no point in living
It's the same in most Europe cities spaciously man long as you don't include Islam European nation? such as Turkey where woman have it worse lol
thats what happens when all you know is work smh work aint worth throwing your life away
And 90% of the japanese people lives in the cities.
No. People commit suicide there because they love Logan Paul and want to be in his vlog.
this is exactly why religion is important, because if you place too much emphasis on materialism, what are you going to do when things dont go according to plan.
You forgot the high suicide rates. Not sure if it's a major factor towards the decreasing population, but they do have very high suicide rates I think!! Pls tell me if I'm wrong
That and Karōshi.
It’s now declining
@@Shadow_Wolf_190 suicide rates are lower than they were a few years ago but their still high. Karoshi (death by overwork) is still about the same.
Would suicide rates cause a sudden plummet in the population? I don't think so. Not if they were steady.
@ I didn't say it was the only cause for their declining population tho!! I was just wondering if it was one of the factors! 🤔 I wonder why they didn't mention Karoshi either?
this is what happen when workers right is almost non-existent causing the worker to suffer stress, depression. suicidal and despair while the government expect them to function perfectly like robot without rest, asking to marry so and so without addressing the source of the problem "TIME". how do the people raise a family when they coming home at 9 to 10 pm and goes to work at 6 to 7 am, they are literally working themselves to death, does the government think the people does not have feeling.
fister fish crazy how Japan is the #1 country in robotic technology and yet it's treating its people as robots and we all know what happens to humans when you abuse and exploit them. It's sad :(

The home you stay the farms you have mostly come from your ancestors who earned it to make us have a place to rest,eat,study etc. The country didn't even do or help anything to make your life look better. In this world we should care ourself and family more than the country that where the real life and freedom is!!
Uh oh, an fatalist, nihilist, pessimist, antinatalist misantrophe.
Your kind of thinking must have to those countries which are getting overpopulated. In my country india, its sweet but sad at the same time when people who are economically weaker (in rural india i.e. villages)say with huge smile on their face that children are blessings even they know how much they ll be going to cost.
What about the fact that many Japanese people work 16-20 hour shifts, 6-7 days a week? A lot of them literally don't have the time for a relationship or a family. If they don't work these ridiculous shifts, they get viewed as lazy or unproductive and may get shunned from society. Also the country has a high suicide rate due to high societal pressure, having to get the best education and job possible and work and much as possible or risk becoming an outcast.
They are like a working machine
@@ifalm4274 yea. Rather than a well oiled one. Just a straight machine that need parts replaced ever 6 montha
The suicide rate is skewed because murders or unnatural deaths without enough evidence are called suicides. You could be labeled as a suicide death with a bullet wound that came from the back of your head from a far range.
Still, _lots of people just wanna kill themselves over there_
That's why nations need to increase their populations to reduce the overall work pressure on each individual citizens.
But then again decreasing population is the problem here so idk they have to do something to increase the population and decrease the expectations from each individual citizens.
Maybe immigration could be a key who know?
They are against immigration because they treat it as tainting their race. Especially to the government. The civilians don't give a crap, but the government refuses to allow it. There are tales of immigrants being treated like second-class citizens by the conservative government despite marrying into Japanese households. That somehow the government is the reason why they still haven't recovered. They are pushing for more babies and as anime have said, the conservative govt, in hopes of staying pure, might just enforce baby making laws if it gets bad enough.
_Is anime to blame?_
N o
Anime is always to blame
Nope all the opposite, plenty of them encourage to have children even, unless people in Japan just got the wrong signals...
Dank Matter ,
cant wait for #2
With a divorce rate hovering around 50% here in the US, I could understand why many choose to stay single. If marriage was a business decision, it would be a horrible one considering those odds. IMO, being single has better benefits than being married. Less stress being the biggest benefit of them all.
SimpleMan me and almost every friend I have and aside from a few family members either have divorced parents or are divorced themselves. It’s pretty sad. We all grow up thinking it won’t work out.
To be fair, divorce rate would go way down if you had to live with the person for a year before marrying them. If you can't stand to live with them for a year, you won't be together for a lifetime. I lived with my boyfriend for several years before we could afford to get married. We've been together now for 12 years.
How about being in a relationship, but not one that is bound by a legal contract?

Not worth it
First, they work too much. Second, their salary is not enough for having children. They do not want children if they know that they can't raise the child well.
They do not hate children, they simply just have no time for them. It's their own business and their own life. I am also one of those people who just wants to live like that. People don't need to make their own family, people WANT to make their own family.

It's an irony that how most of the countries are suffering with increasing population and japan, on the other hand, is suffering with population decrease.....
My country and the region around my country suffer with population decrease, but for different reasons. My country (Macedonia) has a population of about 2 million people. Thousands of people have left my country to seek a better life in Western Europe, North America or Australia. Neighboring Bulgaria is in a worse situation. They used to have almost 9 million people in 1991. In the last population survey back in 2011 counted 7.1 million people in Bulgaria. Now it's estimated that there are only 5 million people in Bulgaria. When they entered the EU, about 2 million Bulgarians left Bulgaria to seek a better life in other EU countries.
its japan, what do u expect
Not really most countries have a decrease in population

Actually, no. Japan's fertility rate is nothing special. Most of Europe is experiencing the same fertility problem, but they can compensate for it with immigration.

The most obvious hole in a movie plot I've ever seen. I was sitting in the theater and was pissed off nobody thought of it lol

Japan's low birth rate is a consequence of Japan's economic history.
Japan had positive population growth during the economic boom years from about 1950 to 1990, when their economy was powered by exports of consumer goods. They were the world's workshop in a similar manner to Britain in the 19th Century. Starting in the 1990s, the rest of Asia started copying Japan's example, and Japan lost increasing amounts of its export markets to China and other low-cost newly industrializing competitors in Asia. Japan tries to stay ahead of the pack in technology and quality, but that's an expensive investment which they will lose anyway as China and the others catch up.
Japan is one of the most expensive countries to live in, so Japanese factories and workers simply can't afford to compete with other Asian factories and workers in terms of costs and wages. So Japan has basically fallen into permanent recession. They tried to stimulate the economy with heavy deficit spending, but that has failed miserably, and it has only ruined Japan's once-perfect financial record with a huge national debt.
The result of all that is economic death for Japanese employers and workers. Businesses failing, factories moving to China, remaining factories downsizing and automating. Workers being forced to take low-skilled, low-paying, part-time, temporary jobs, far below their education level. This is happening despite today's young generation being the most educated generation ever.
Unemployed and underemployed young Japanese people by the millions are being forced to delay marriage and stay at home with their parents for years after they finish school. It gives them the opportunity to experiment with Bohemian lifestyles like young Westerners do, but if they had a choice, most young Japanese would rather have the same career opportunities their parents had. How are they supposed to maintain a replacement birth rate when they can't even support themselves?
Anyone who wants young Japanese people to get married and reproduce only needs to start a business in Japan, hire lots of young people, and pay them a decent wage. Until that happens, a declining population is what Japan needs, and to oppose it would only make things worse. A smaller Japanese population is better than a poor Japan.
That's proper, since it's better to decrease the next generation of future consumers and unemployed people through declining birth rate. In that way, their economy becomes sustainable in the future years.

DragonNinja 365 people got crazy.
Only a certain part of our population with the finest genes have to survive for the next generation considering the rapid automation of our civilization and that is why I think a decreasing population is a good thing. Then no child would have to feel insecure about money, food or diseases and the rate of violence will significantly go down to a negligible amount.

That's false. We end up getting equally discomfort with our lifestyle, no matter how well or bad our financial problems are (unless you become a millionaire, and let's be honest, that's almost impossible for the common folk).
The only thing you're doing when you choose not to have a baby is securing a future late age depression and living the short term (which it itself it's not bad, but we need a balance).
People regret that decision when it’s too late. We humans are hardwired to want children, the lifestyles in the modern world push down the idea that children are a burden, and in many ways they are, but raising children is also one of the main goals in life. Obviously you should first live your life and figure yourself out before having children, but not having them at all turns out to be a bad idea in the end.

Many developed nations have a problem where people are over worked and underpaid.

I also don't see the value in family or having significant other . Yes I am shy and I'm not that confident in relationships. Here, in the United States, having a partner is like a requirement in this society . No one should be obligated to find the person that "completes you" if you're happy being alone, the more power to you 👍
I’m 20 and never been in a relationship and I plan on never having one. From my own view most relationships I see with friends don’t usually last long. Also when it comes to my family all I see is one person trying to take advantage of the other which gives me no hope for any relationship.

They should increase immigration, especially from populations that reproduce quickly.
@@shuushirakawa
Immigration has never really solved this issue. A good example is Europe, Germany in particular, they've opened the floodgates to thousands of immigrants several years ago, but their fertility rates are still one of the lowest in all of Europe. And let's not ignore the fact that several german cities in the future will become a part of caliphate where germans will be considered as minorities.
Geri Jokub
But those immigrants would be German or their descendants will. Immigration is usually beneficial long term and a burden in the short term. So they would be adding to the German population since they will be German.
And I don’t know if that’s an exaggeration or if you are being hyperbolic but a caliphate? There’s not any known caliphates in the world today and there’s only been 6 or 7 in ancient human history. So the chance of that happening (especially in another country, where one hasn’t been established) is none.
That would cause demographic replacement in the long run if the immigrants keep having higher birth rates. Japanese shouldn't become an ethnic minority in their native land.
@@blindeagleace3629,
The main problem is that the immigrants (I'm talking about the ones from the middle east and Africa) are reproducing at a higher rate than the ethnic germans, which means that in the long run, even if their fertility rates will go up, Germany will no longer be ethnically german (that includes mixed german people as well). Multiculturalism just doesn't work in Europe, whether you like that or not. The majority of immigrants are not willing to integrate into their society, which is an endangerment for german language, culture, traditions, religion and their gene pool.
And yes, I was being metaphorical about the "caliphate".

Actually the ratio of foreign born japanese returning to japan had increased in the last few years. Japanese dual citizens are also subjected to choose only one citizenship when they reach the age of 22. Most japanese dual citizens choose japanese citizenship.
I`ve been to japan every year and it`s a great place. Western media is a liar and keeps reporting negative stuff about asian countries to cover up western problems.
I know it is too abusive to divorced men.
Not only the population decline but there are so many other problems in japan people just don’t understand until they actually see it with their own eyes. I live in a small English speaking country now and I am far more happier then I had been when I was in Japan.
sapporo in my opinion a simple once a year trip is not a good representation of the quality of life you obtain from living in Japan long term. If you know people who love living in Japan, good for them, I am happy for them. However in my own experience living there as a Japanese man, seeing both the dark and bright sides of their society, I would not even consider moving back there.
The problem is very simple but extremely hard to fix. Those people have no tangible incentives to date and have kids, and you can easily make it worse with the wrong incentives. not only that , most peoples living arrangements are in no tangible danger and they have optimized a lot of things to be very convenient even for the most niche activities. I bet the reason people see no point in dealing with each other amounts to the expectations outweighing the convenience they already enjoy, simply put if another person doesn't add to my happiness (or likely wont) why would i deal with that?
Agree! And thats how I feel as a westerner! Most humans annoy me. I really enjoy the single, childless life💁 Sue me
There is not really a problem, the world-population will hit 11 billion in 2050, so Japan only has to let migration happening.
Unless of course the majority of countries in the world begin actively seeking migrants and competing for them as they're all shrinking.
Everyone : Japan's birth rate is extremely low. They have to accept immigrants ASAP.
S.Korea : Am I a joke to you?
Both of them refused to accept south east asian though...
@@aligenderuwo6471 not sure about Japan, but S.East Asians themselves wouldn't immigrate to S.Korea cuz of mandatory military service
@Yuu 02 why is that

@@lordhiguain7800 agree
Negligible government financial support for parents, lack of Child care facilities, expensive educational costs from Kindergarten to High School/Cram Schools. Affordable housing in units where couples are hesitant to bring up children next to now elderly neighbours. Basic transport infrastructure that doesn't take into consideration mothers with young children. Working women getting abused by elderly work colleagues for not doing their duty(Bear Children)and then getting looked down upon for not prioritising their job when they do. No wonder Japanese couples, particularly women, no longer look forward to bringing a child into Mr Hashimoto's Utsukushi Nippon(Beautiful Japan).
It's because women have jobs in the first place that contribute to national declime women shouoe in household
The days of being able to sustain a family on one income is pretty much a fantasy for most people. Yeah because who likes having to keep sewing clothes when they get torn or skipping meals or deciding whether it would be better to go without heat or water? Face it, the nuclear family model is dead for the everyday joe. Mom has to take up a job as well to keep a roof over everyone’s head and maybe be able to afford to do more than just work, sleep and eat because that isn’t living that is just surviving.
Stop crying.
I mean the Nuclear family destroyed the family unit anyways.
@@sithersproductions If it is then why are other countries not like Japan? Why are they not declining in birthrate as much!?!?!? It's because most women anywhere else are not socially forced to lose their jobs once they marry and make their husbands overwork to be the sole breadwinner in order to afford the expensive child care/housing unit. It's not just women's fault. This is the country's social regression for advancing too fast and not advancing the social culture. Once you step outside Japan you can tell there's less of a sex divide in most other places compared to Japan
Aight *-crack fingers-*, let's repopulate Japanese bois
@Provocateur wtf
Tokyo ghoul? *-Cracks Fingers-* or something else
No Provocateur, we don't need to ruin Japan with Muslims.
@@METALRON well we don't need them in europe and japan is lacking population so everybody wins
Clorox Bleach we can be friends :)
I think the US is slowly getting into this singles mindframe, where we want to focus on our education, careers, and future more than having a family. I also find it pointless to get married and have kids, because I want to spend my time and money on myself LOL But I have no problems getting a date and flirting around, I just don’t want those extra commitments and responsibilities. I’m also an introvert/lone wolf, so I actually prefer being alone. There’s no desire in me to have kids or to have a man. I’m definitely not alone in this, our younger generations are beginning to think the same way too. I guess we can look at Japan as a possible social outcome for other developed countries 🤔
Agreed
Well to be honest, I want to finish my education, make money, do business, but also have a family. I believe it's a good thing and feeling, Idk why.
@@charlesoto2 sociological engineering. That's what they want you to do and from birth that's what they drive into your skull. With divorce rates like they are, in the US anyway, it's practically economic and mental suicide. The video itself spells it out pretty good. Living for yourself goes out the window. Why bother?
Having a family is natural to most, after all we’re human beings so we still feel the need to populate. It’s also healthy for people who want or need companionship. There’s nothing wrong about having a family, it’s just that some of us don’t have that need when we have other things that satisfy us; like friends, hobbies, entertainment (tv, video games, Internet, social media, etc.), work, success/money, etc. You do what makes you happy :)
@@erika8349 yeah so your genes wont be passed to the next generation. Thats ok If its your choice.
