Obviously “bizarre population pitch” is an innapropriate way to phrase it, but it’s this article’s title

    So he wanted forced hysterectomies, ban women over 30 from getting married, and restrict women’s access to education so they could focus on babies. I love that all of this pressure is on women like it’s just them being stubborn and not a reaction to the society they’re trying to survive in. It also alludes that men are otherwise thriving, with no other issues than women’s lack of interest causing their disinterest. Men aren’t looking to have kids either. And I don’t think forcing them to limit their own dating pool and knowing that they’ll have to fully support a pregnant, uneducated wife and possibly multiple children is going to make anyone rock hard. Japanese people are already worked to death, and everything is sp competitive. Maybe deal with that before wtf that plan was???

    Hysterectomy is a big, risky and expensive surgery. Just snip the men at 35 (for average couple age difference), same panic effect but way less expensive.

    /s just to make sure, super bad idea probably breaching multiple human rights agreements either way

      My partner said deal if they take men’s balls at 30. You know the expression “if you don’t use it you lose it”

    How does threatening women with forced hysterectomies even make sense? Is the solution to increase birthrates not as simple as implementing policies that just make having a family easier, like better job security and shorter work days/weeks/years?

      The idea is that women are afraid not to have children at all and get emergency children before 30.

      That this will turn women into breeding and child caring machines has the nice side effects that you not only get a bunch of women who don’t have time for education, and thus more job security for me men, and it keeps them at home, so you don’t need child care facilities.

      So all in all a great step forward into the 1920!

      Not really, but the yen is very weak and they are facing a rapidly aging population crisis.

      Attitudes like what? Are you actually thinking the people who didn’t choose for forced surgery deserve it?

                Yes, I am; when I’m not being called names and accused of saying things I never said.

                  What name are you accusing me of calling you? Lol I accused you of things you never said? What you said was so racist that it was deleted by a mod. Haven’t seen gaslighting like this since I accidentally watched Trump debate highlights.
