1. Anything but actual solutions like work life balance improvements, housing affordability, gender equality etc

2. If this app was developed by government employee I am not going to hold much hope here.

3. lol, they don’t want to critically look at their own legislation and economy.

   the suppressed wages, toxic work culture, and lack of protections for women is the result of advanced stages of underregulated capitalism. They’re what the US, and other western countries, will eventually become.

   They’ve made it impossible to have a social life and make it a lose-lose situation for any woman to try to date, much less anyone trying to start a family.

4. They should release a government dating app for people who want to have babies. I would sign up.

5. It’s like they don’t know what the root cause of this is. But sure, an app will surely fix this.

6. What they need to do is stop blurring out vaginas and penises. How much would you be looking forward to smashing blurries instead of uglies.

   Just as western porn made men and woman think we’re professionals at sex.

   Nobody wants to smash a blur.

7. SPOILERS!

   It won’t.

8. Work culture is totally fucked in japan. All work and no free time means you are too exhausted to go out dating. Let alone taking care of a kid ontop of that. So a dating app will most likely not help with that.

9. Finally the solution! An app! Problem solved.

10. Well being amongst the top in a lot of industries has a price.

    They have to work like mad, men and women, what you expect them to never sleep while raising 2 kids like it’s a hobby?

11. Is this social entropy?

12. Why do poor countries have high birth rates? I don’t think that in these countries they spend little time at work

13. Dating app is the dumbest solution

    Japan, you want people to have kids?

    PAY THEM a lot of money + give them access to affordable housing, daycare, and good work/life balance

    A dating app???

    What a joke

14. All these birth rate “issues” are a good thing. The earth is over populated as is and resources are stretched to a breaking point. 

15. I see the government is as blind as ever.

16. What is Reddit’s obsession with Japanese & South Korean Birth-Rates?

17. Reminds me of a meme, where a dude slaps duck tape.

18. Hear me out. Remove censorship of porn. I don’t know if it’ll help Japan’s sex rate but I’ll like it.

19. World governments will do anything they can to pretend they care about their citizens, but instead of changing global work culture, giving people more free time and PAYING them more, more people would be having babies.

    But nah let’s do some dumbass app. How are the Japanese people going to find time to use this app?

20. The Japanese government seems to be doing everything other than actually fixing the issues causing the low birth rate.

21. Give everyone viagra and hold a yearly fuckfest. I personally can’t wait for fuckfest 2025

22. I believe Japan will more readily embrace out-of-body incubation technologies, requiring mandatory contributions of eggs and sperm to create “baby factories”, than it will abandon its anti-social working patterns and ethics.

23. Japan needs to convince Nick Canon to move there, birthrate fixed immediately.

24. There was this documentary I watched a while back about birth rates and how to solve in the US … “Handmaids Tale” I think it was called

    Blessed be the fruit 😘

25. Tokyo desperately needs a 4 day work week

26. me omw to “help” Japan with their breeding rates

27. Maybe reduce ur workhours
