Although I get much of my news about the other sides of Japan from RocketNews24, this time it's from the more traditional The Japan Times.
I'd read reports regarding the topic, but the figures cited in the article have me wondering:
"Are Japanese men and women really losing interest in sex?"
"Has another form of relationship evolved? If so, what is it? I have thoughts, but will wait to hear others' thoughts."
Here are some of the statistics in the article:
A survey of Japanese people aged 18 to 34 found that almost 70 percent of unmarried men and 60 percent of unmarried women are not in a relationship.
Moreover, many of them have never got close and cuddly. Around 42 percent of the men and 44.2 percent of the women admitted they were virgins.
The study, conducted in June last year, covered 8,754 single people and 6,598 married couples across the country.
