The highest proportion of women will not have children: Following just under 330,000 births in the first half of 2024, births are projected to fall below 700,000 in 2024. According to the latest population estimates from the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research, the population was not expected to fall below 700,000 until 2043. The declining birthrate is progressing at a speed 20 years faster than expected (based on the medium estimate of Japan’s future population for 2023). The number of births began to fall below one million in 2016, and in 2018, when I wrote “Childless Aging — The Fear of Zero Births” (Iwanami Shoten), which deals with the government’s measures to combat the declining birthrate and the issue of declining birthrate, the number of births was approximately 920,000. In just six years, the number of births fell by more than 200,000, to less than three-quarters of what it was before. Here is the shocking report. In fact, Japan has the highest percentage of childless women among OECD countries. In 2024, 28.3% of Japanese women who will turn 49 years old, or roughly 30%, will not have had children. According to the 2020 census, there are approximately 897,000 women aged 45 (49 in 2024), of which approximately 250,000 women will never have children in their lifetime, meaning they are childless.

It was the ice age. They were abandoned people who had been abandoned by their country. It was a time when people said that poor people would soon disappear because they couldn’t have children.
>>13 Japanese women are said to have beautiful hair and skin, but that’s probably because there isn’t much else to praise about their appearance. The good thing about Japanese women is their deep affection and strength of character.
With men treated like ATM slaves and women being beggar princesses who can’t escape the bubble they haven’t even experienced yet, it’s no wonder the marriage rate is falling.
It’s right in the middle of the ice age. That’s what happens when you can’t find a decent job and don’t have the money to get married and have children.
If we calculate without immigration, there will be more than 35 million people in 20 years.
I think people over 65 will be in paradise because of the genetic drug injections they received, and if the birth rate remains at 500,000-600,000, the population will only increase by just over 10 million. If Japan wants to maintain its current national strength, it has no choice but to get young people to have lots of children, but because we abandoned the ice age, there is a physical shortage of women who can give birth to children in the first place. Of course, if we wanted to increase the population, things would be different if each person had an average of five children, but that’s not realistic.
>>21 If you have a bad child, there will be a difference in how well they do, so if you have a reclusive, incompetent child, it will be difficult to attend the reunion.
Maybe she won’t have any more children because she saw her grandmother and other female relatives who were forced to have around eight children with people they didn’t love in the past, due to pressure to be childless and multiply.
>>28 The era of forcing people to have children to secure the workforce and successors is over. Most countries struggling with low birth rates are like this.
If you can do math, you’ll know that Japanese people are already becoming an endangered species. The current largest population, the junior generation (the ice age generation), will be 70 years old in 20 years, so there will only be 10 million young people left. Who’s going to do the work?
Do you know that the Yutori generation is worse than the ice age? (lol) Women tend to marry older men, so it’s a bit off, but seriously there are a lot of unmarried people.
What this means is that Japan is the country where the selfish attitude of “people who don’t want to have children don’t have to” is most rampant in the world, and the social convention in many countries is still that “women who have no intention of having children even though they have no health problems are crazy.” Is it because women are oppressed in modern Japan? No, no, up until around 1955, it was normal for Japanese women to have five or six children. You can’t really say that women were given preferential treatment back then.
This is the generation that experienced a financial collapse just as they were about to get married. Major restructuring and increasing unemployment. Big companies have undergone major restructuring.
There was a glacial period, but this was the generation when women started to become managers. They couldn’t take parental leave, so it was either work or kids. In fact, many people had to choose between work and marriage. Because this generation worked so hard, it’s now commonplace to apply for parental leave.
My senior who was smart, good looking and had a good personality was not allowed to marry his girlfriend’s parents, who said, “It has to be a stable company like a bank or real estate.”
>>47 Female parents are definitely a nuisance Well, it shows how unpopular they were during the ice age Compared to the generation 30 years ago, the workplace is still pretty crappy.
