Is it true that japanese men and women have mostly given up on each other

I was reading about how Japanese men and women have both given up on the other gender. I also read that is has become such a problem Japan declared a state of emergency.

Now I always question everything I read as a lot of things you read are rubbish. This is why I am asking this question. I thought maybe someone here knows or even lives in Japan.

Yes, it is true. 5
I don't know. 4
No, it is not true. 3

    They're not giving up on each other, but the women are giving up the traditional roles . Like it's "cool" to become a single, independent, & successful business woman. Also, it's not helpful that the young males there ( in other E Asian countries as well ) look too damn feminine with those Rosie ODonell & that mom from Kate & 8 old haircut . Also the overtweezing bs is stupid . Just clean up to prevent a damn scary looking monobrow but avoid the arching it like chicks do. Straight men should look like men if they want to score with the opposite sex. That's what my Japanese female friend said. Like Russell Peters says "Hey! Do the right thing -be a MAN!"

    • Yes, I think women need to learn how to be a LADY! also. While a lot of men can be bad in other countries there are a lot of truly awful women that treat men like total rubbish and then wonder why men won't date them.

        Totally concur with that, my friend. I'm all for women's rights, but I can't stand it when they go over the top. Feminine beauty and behavior is very attractive-when it's displayed by a woman

        • Yes, well I heard a woman going on about how all women's prisons should be shut down because no matter what a woman does she should never go to jail and those are the type of women I can't take seriously.

    I did read an article about it, how the government was encouraging families to have kids , and how they'd pay them to have a second child.

    Yes. The males have turned towards anime girls and females towards octopi.

    In the future, homo sapiens shall vanish from Japan. There will be two new species spawned from it: half-animes and tentacle people. They shall fight each other to establish who will rule the nation.

    I've heard about it for a long time, even my college professors have mentioned the problem is so severe that it's called the graying of japan.
