“22% of high school boys have kissed, 12% have had sexual intercourse.” Only masturbation rates are on the rise this “detachment from sex” suggests the future of Japan.
According to the “National Survey on Sexual Behavior of Young People” (preliminary report) conducted by the Japan Sexual Education Association every six years since 1974, the rate at which high school students have kissed or had sexual intercourse has been declining. Columnist Tamaki Kawasaki writes, “In Japan, the way people build up immunity to sexual activity is not a ’practice’ approach, but a ’vaccination’ approach. “It seems that children are receiving negative messages about sex before receiving positive messages in sex education.” ■Data shows high school students are “disengaging from sex” Japanese high school students are said to be “disengaging from sex.” According to a survey (preliminary results) conducted by the Japan Sexual Education Association in 2023, 22.8% of boys and 27.5% of girls have kissed. It has returned to the level seen in 1987, more than 35 years ago. The rate of people who have had sexual intercourse was 12.0% for men and 14.8% for women, continuing a downward trend for nearly 20 years. On the other hand, the rate of people who have experienced masturbation is increasing. The Asahi Shimbun, which reported this, made a rather astute observation, saying, “While sexual activity with a partner is decreasing, sexual activity without a partner is increasing.” The researchers pointed out that “it is possible that the COVID-19 pandemic, which restricted contact during a period when interest in sex is just beginning to emerge, had an impact.” This survey, which has been conducted approximately every six years since 1974, has found that Japanese children have previously shown a common tendency to be polarized, with “early ones growing up early and late ones growing up late.” However, with the advent of the “Corona era,” this conventional wisdom has collapsed, and the survey shows a uniform trend away from gender. This can be interpreted as a situation in which teenagers, a time when it is natural for them to be sexually active, have become disengaged from real, physical sexual activity and instead have become more reclusive, watching content alone.If teenagers, who are the “people of the future,” are behaving like this, there are not even the slightest signs that the declining birth rate will improve in the future. This is not at all surprising, and makes you think, “That makes sense,” which is typical of Japan, a country that Elon Musk predicted would “eventually disappear.” ■ Japan’s “good kids” grow up in a clean environment High school is the time of your life when you’re the most curious and foolish, or rather, the time of your stupidity. If you want to be stupid, now is the perfect time, because it’s the perfect season to be stupid. He has no qualms about calling people stupid, but there is an appropriate age for acting stupid. The human body reaches its peak in both intelligence and physical strength between the ages of 18 and 20. However, in modern Japan, the age of majority has been lowered to 18 and voting rights have been granted, while drinking, smoking, and gambling are prohibited until the age of 20, and various bad things that adults indulge in, squander their money, and ruin their lives are verbally rejected. Please wait a little longer,” he said, refusing to give his permission. In other words, young people in Japan are prevented from doing anything that could have a negative impact on their bodies and minds until they reach the age of 20, and then suddenly, from the age of 18, they are told, “From today, you are considered adults. They are being asked to mature and take responsibility for themselves. Continue reading below [president online] 2024/10/25 (Fri) 10:17.
A middle school couple does it on a bench at the local park around 6:30pm. They do it so often that they end up throwing trash away, so I wish they’d stop.
It’s one thing if you’re in high school, but if you continue this into adulthood, I wonder what’s so fun about life. Your mind and spirit may be satisfied, but you’re still ignoring physical satisfaction. You can’t call yourself “healthy in body and mind.”
Sex education in Japan is so sloppy that it’s probably better not to have any experience until you gain some knowledge. If you experience it without knowing, it will just become a form of entertainment that can earn you money, or it will be exploited.
