Sexless Japan - Zeplin in Tokyo #72




In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows:

1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link:

Description:

Sexless Japan, or "japon sexless" as some I see say, that's amazingly a term and headline that you see every now and then these days. Basically, Japanese people aren't heaving sex anymore. Well, that's obviously an exaggeration, but 77% of "new adults" (people recently turned 20) in Japan have no partner, 50% of married couples are "sexless" (no sex for 3 or more months), and one third of young males "detest or have no interest in" sex.

The Japanese population is one of the fastest ageing in the world, and estimates show that if Japan doesn't change it's course, it's population will diminish with almost 30 million (around 20%) by 2050.

Today, my thoughts also go out to the victims of today's earthquake in Japan and Tokyo, and it's following tsunami.

General info:
My channel, TokyoZeplin, focuses on my experiences as a gaijin, a foreigner, living (or lived as of now) in Tokyo, Japan. While a lot of my videos are not facts about Japan, but rather my personal experiences in Japan, mostly Tokyo, a few of them do pop up. My topics range from prostitution in Japan, Japanese porn (no, not really), womens rights in Japan, working conditions in Tokyo, japanese hostesses and their culture, japanese history and culture in general, and much more. Now and then I help people learn japanese, especially japanese slang, though not a lot since there are a lot of tools for learn japanese online. But since I rarely went outside Tokyo, this is really mostly about Tokyo Japan, as my name indicates.
