What are the solutions for the Japanese who have a high rate of lifelong unmarried?

As we all know, Japan is a country with serious aging and declining birthrate. Another serious problem may not be well known by everyone. More and more Japanese people do not get married all their lives. As shown in the table below, in 1985, when Japan's economy was prosperous and prosperous, the unmarried rate of men was only 3.9% and that of women was 4.3%. Just a generation ago, in 2015, 30 years later, nearly a quarter of the male population has never been married by the age of 50. In the years to come, it is estimated that this number will continue to rise.

The reasons for not getting married in Japanese are very likely to be similar to those in other East Asian regions. It is nothing more than economic reasons, insecurity about the future, and the problem of matching between men and women. The problem of matching men and women has also troubled the Japanese government. The common people will not have children if they do not get married. The reduction of the population will greatly harm the future national strength. Therefore, official units in various places often hold call events for men and women. The business of private marriage and love associations is also very prosperous. I also introducedAI marriage work before. Curious friends can go to find out what is going on.

People who haven’t married may feel that their conditions are not good enough to do this. From a male standpoint, they usually think that they don’t earn enough money, they don’t have a regular job, they don’t look good, and they don’t have the opposite sex… (If you want to find a reason, also You can go on and list a lot, so I won't write it here.)

Introducing the experience of a famous Japanese youtuber, hoping to lift the spirits of those who gave up their marriage wishes.

Born in 1991, now 31 years old, his real name is Masada Harada . He uses the "へずまりゅう" account to frequently upload confusing videos on YouTube. A youtuber who is famous for a confusing video that made TV news reports. He has become synonymous with confusing youtuber because of the coverage of various media, and has a little reputation, but now this account has been officially closed.

Confused youtuber refers to deliberately shooting videos that are different from ordinary people to attract attention in order to earn views. I don't know how to translate it in Chinese. I found "prank Youtuber", but I personally think it has gone beyond the scope of prank. For example, deliberately harassing ordinary people, shopkeepers, and even provoking the police. Cruelty to animals, impersonating the family members of celebrities, lying about murder notices, plagiarizing the names of well-known youtubers to upload videos.

The film that made him famous happened in July 2020. In a supermarket in Aichi Prefecture, he devoured the sliced raw fish on the supermarket shelf before checking out, and then took the empty box to check out. A few days later, the manager of the supermarket found the video and asked the police whether the act was illegal. Later, he was arrested by the police on suspicion of violating the theft, which attracted news media reports. Fragments of the film have been repeatedly broadcast by TV stations during that time. Although it is not a good name, it can be regarded as his wish to become famous.

Since then, although most of the videos he uploaded have overwhelmingly won the number of likes, the number of followers has increased very quickly. Some fans and viewers sometimes dislike that the film is not exciting enough, and will encourage him to continue to "come on", making him even more ecstatic.

In 2020, the new crown virus has been raging in Japan, and he himself is suspected of being diagnosed, but he still walks around, and he does not wear a mask. Afterwards, he was directly named by the Yamaguchi prefectural governor (mayor) of the place to harm the village (Harada was born in Yamaguchi prefecture). Under normal circumstances, official agencies or media will not disclose the identity of the confirmed person. The reason for this disclosure is to call on people who have been in contact with him to take the initiative to go to test whether they are infected with the new crown virus.

Later, a certain political party took a fancy to his "popularity" and invited him to run for election. Fortunately, there were enough sensible Japanese voters to make him lose the election. After that, he continued to try various unconventional behaviors, dueling with well-known fighters in the ring, becoming a tramp, and turning into a cowherd of a cowherd shop...

In March 2022, he was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months in prison, suspended for 4 years, but with protective observation.

Seeing the friends here, will they think that "Lu Snake" like him has anything to do with the theme of this time?

Just two days ago, on April 11, he posted a photo on Twitter , which has accumulated 22.8K likes and 723 comments so far.

At the beginning of the message, many people were not sure whether he was playing for real or just acting again! ?

In another tweet, he made it clear that he expects to get married within this year, and will invite famous people to their wedding ceremony.

Let's say this photo isn't another performance of his, but it's real. See if the friends here should muster up the courage and insist on pursuing their own ideals. Although getting married is not an inevitable goal in life, don't give up easily. Try to think back, will your life be worse than Harada? Does he look better than him? (Sorry, let Harada be the negative teaching material 😆)

Finally, I briefly introduce the experience of Harada and his fiancée getting to know each other. The fiancée started watching Harada's films a long time ago and thought he was a very interesting person. Last year, when Harada was filming the life of a homeless person, she decided to go to the scene to make a surprise attack. After the two actually met, she felt that it was the same as she imagined, and she thought that he was serious about the filming work, so she had a good impression of him at that time. Later, Harada became a cowherd, and his fiancée also went to the store to spend. It is said that he spent 8 million yen on him. In April this year, Harada proposed to her successfully.

Harada himself said that he originally thought that he would never get married in this life, but he did not expect anyone to like him so much. In the future, for the sake of the beloved, I will no longer do any deceptive behavior that hurts others, and I will maintain my family life even if I do odd jobs to make money.
