36% of young Japanese men shunning marriage/relationships?

[rlyconfusedbrah]

As of September 2010, 36% of Japanese men between the ages of 16 and 19 perceived themselves in this way.[3] Additionally, two surveys of single men in their 20s and 30s found that 61% and 70%, respectively, considered themselves grass-eating men.[4] This phenomenon is viewed by the Japanese government as a leading cause in the nation's declining birth rate, prompting the government to provide incentives for couples that have children, including payouts and free health care.[5]

Just came across this brahs: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbivore_men

[butwhowasfeel]

theyve taken no contact to a whole new level

[Badger505]

I'm shunning women too but I'm no herbivore. I'm a predator. Women are a waste of time.

[ShadyGuy]

ironically it is kind of alpha in a sense......they literally follow the "disregard sloots acquire currency lifestyle"

[GG249]

Whatever does it for them. Who gives a phuck what people think.

[AlacrityH]

Roman Empire all over again. Men refuse to marry. Government passes bachelor tax. Empire crumbles from within because women hold too much power.

Interesting... low test levels perhaps?

It's about as alpha as taking a dick up the ass.

Must be all that radiation. Instead of creating Godzilla though it has done... this.

Really different type of alpha to what guys used to be in Japan

[20Mavs11]

Ultimate No contact.

Why don't you have a seat over there

[chitkunt]

Why bother marrying when they can pay some slore or build a japanese sex robot

[Condyle]

In related news, they'll have sexbots for us all within the decade.

But seriously though, the Japanese are always ahead of the curve. Apparently these non-carnivore guys straight-up think bitches be tripping, can see nothing in a relationship except expense and bullchit. They cbf wining and dining some sloot who will probably cheat on them anyway, can deal without the hassle. Technology gives them companionship (plus they hang around other dudes) and they'd rather fap.

I think it's pretty alpha, to be honest with you. Like meta-alpha, they've just taken it to a whole new level of disregard women, acquire currency.

[Num3n]

das it for japan i guess :\

[Chesso95]

this is happening all over the western world

women are the choosers so why approach?

[Whey2small92]

At this rate, Japan will literally go extinct. Unless the guys donate their sperm.

It's funny how those guys went from Bushido, honor above all else/no surrender kamikaze alphas to betas who'd rather jerk off to hentai than experience real pussy

[KingKringe]

why women when itws all about the hentai

let me aware you brahs on okozukai

http://www.japan-talk.com/jt/new/okozukai

in japan, it is customary for the husband to give all his income to his wife
his wife then gives him an allowance every month for him to spend on things he wants

a man who makes $125k/year usually gets around $375/month to spend

you guys would say no to marriage too if we did that in the US

[Kitavi]

Typical MISCer thread. Lets ask 16 to 19 y/o how they feel about marriage...

Next study: lets ask 10 year old boys what they think about girls. Excerpt from an interview with a participant: "Girls suck! I like Pokemon!" (actually that sounds like a 25 year old MISCer ... weird).

"Going out for lunch or ordering a beer at lunch is unthinkable for men who receive okozukai. "

Wot?

Firstly: "Additionally, two surveys of single men in their 20s and 30s found that 61% and 70%, respectively, considered themselves grass-eating men."

Secondly: it's an actual thing in Japan ffs

Strong article, strong reading comprehension or intentional bullshít, not sure.

The article is full of "its common", "amongst those, many", and "often". If you drew up a Venn diagram it would be a pitiful sample size. But of course you make out of it "its customary" ... yea, right. Other articles from that site: "67 reasons you will hate Japan".

Its common in most countries that housewives take care of the household budget - or do you think you know what the household costs are if you don't take care of it yourself?

Firstly: "Additionally, two surveys of single men in their 20s and 30s found that 61% and 70%, respectively, considered themselves grass-eating men."

Secondly: it's an actual thing in Japan ffs

Firstly: The other studies use single men as populations for their samples, so comparing all three at once is dumb. Also, is it so surprising that amongst single men there are many bitter FA *******s? Just look at MISC.

Secondly: The main reasons assumed for this phenomenon is the economical hardship in Japan and their culture. The men feel ashamed to not be successful breadwinners and chose not to face that shame (by way of avoiding dating all together). It has nothing to do with their women, but with themselves, as usual, really.

Brah you know samurai had teenage boy companions that they would phuck on the reg?

Would rather jerk off than be some ******* who works 80 hours a week for some bish who controls all your income then hands it back to you like pocket money and she doesn't even like you.

Negged.

[ineedadrink]

This isn't some kind of "there's no point in marriage because it gives no real benefits to men" kind of thing that exists in America. Apparently, they have a real problem in Japan where young men are becoming increasingly passive, weak, and effeminate. This seems to be manifesting itself in several ways, including men who are too scared to even walk out of the house, a complete lack of sexual aggressiveness or assertiveness, and male anorexia. Frankly, it's pathetic.

Or maybe young japanese men realised they can do without the stress and expense of having a wife and kids. There's more to life than slavery.
