The Mystery of Why Japanese People Are Having So Few Babies

  1. Additional data point related to Japan: multiple studies have shown that foreigners in Japan commit less crimes than the Japanese do*. In contrast to what the majority of the Japanese believe.

    * The raw data shows a higher percentage, but that includes cases of visa overstayers (a crime which the Japanese can't do in Japan). If this category is removed, is the crime rate among foreigners in Japan lower than the crime rate of the Japanese.

    I don't know about Japan but there was an item on the radio this morning warning about the low sperm count amongst Western men. It is about only 60% of what it was 2 decades ago.
    They blamed diet and tight under wear. Maybe it was all that horse riding of yester year cowboys. Bouncing up and down on their wedding tackle ?
    lol

    maybe you can come up with a study that shows that women are more likely to reach orgasm, riding bareback on a horse than with a man.

    Legend has it that Catherine the Great of Russia was so horny that when she tired of the palace guard riding her she set up a horse. The only trouble was the slings broke, the horse fell on her and crushed her to death.

  6. Given that Catherine the Great died at the age of 67, does that legend sound plausible to you?

    True ;about ''bad hombres''
    but most likely his ''scum of the earth ''point was, frankly mostly muslim men, from the nations banned by US Pres exec order. Put another way, El Al airlines is now worried about grandama Hispanic EL AL air travelors

    However the main reason EL Al airlines checks Hispanic grandmas; they found out muslim men + to a much lesssor degree muslin women were changing thier names to Hispanic, to try avoid detection. {They did that also,on TexMex border. }Its not that Hispanic grandmas[ females] are a terrorist problem, they are not. I like the way some Hispanics like to pick fruit + veggies; i enjoy doing that in my backyard, so i know how they feel.:thumbsup::cool: NOT all muzzzie men are a problem but the %% is so high compared to other groups.

  10. I thought robots were taking over most jobs, so in that sense, no need to keep up the birthrate is there?
