sex in japan


sex in japan

I am a political scientist, therefore, the Japanese problem is being studied by us, by sociologists, by anthropologists and by psychoanalysts, since Freud, sexuality has always been a concern of politicians, economists, without a doubt, sex is in the first concern of women. religions, and downplaying and underestimating the subject does not seem to be a smart strategy to understand what happens to the apparent lack of interest of Japanese adults in sex in the company of a person of the other sex, since many considerations need to be a priori.
At first glance it seems like an individual decision, a mistake made by beginners in Sociology and behaviorism, because before any analysis, the human being is a social being, that is to say that a person does not create a behavior for himself, it would be as if someone wanted to create a language a language only for himself because he wanted it, how useful would a language or language that no one knows only its creator?
So the meanings of social acts, social behaviors of action or abstention from actions, doing and not doing are messages that are exchanged within a meaning intrinsic only to the local culture as with the language, the Japanese language can be taught to anyone, but only the natives of that region and that neighborhood know how to understand and communicate with all the nuances of the language, as, for example, in Brazilian language saying the expression "all this" is not the same as saying "that's all ", only the natives know what the expression "where are you going" means, the gringos learned at the Portuguese school for foreigners to speak a non-fluent language that would be "where are you going now?" instead of the colloquial "where are you going".
The spoken and written language is only a part of the language, it needs the support of the inflection of the voice, the gestures, the posture of the body, the timbre and the pitch and volume of the sound, it may be that a shout alters the message or the whisper alters it. the message content.
The body transmits messages from the way it is dressed, from the way it is used, having sex with the prostitute is not a substitute for sex with a partner or a friend or a lover, as each situation sends a message. complete and diverse, therefore, the fact that a Japanese person abstains from sex with another Japanese person sends several messages, and highlights a complex of situations.
The second consideration is that studies of behavior among higher mammals, such as cats, rats, whales such as orcas, monkeys, indicate that overpopulation and the limiting concentration of people in an environment saturated with people produces a very radical change in behavior, in some cases exacerbate violence and intolerance, we know that being close changes the behavior of the individual, the group effect makes the individual person behave according to the group's expectations of behavior, so the crowd has a behavior that is not the sum nor the synthesis of the behavior of each citizen in the crowd, people in crowds behave in a totally different way from each one there in that crowd.
Another consideration concerns the process of dispute between the sexes, and the tradition that opposes new customs and the needs of the economy that compels social expectations, in the cases of Japan and Korea, the young person's gateway to the winning society ends in the entrance exam for a renowned university, so suicides start on the day of the entrance exam result, ostracism or entry into the world of the successful is defined by the entrance exam for the university of Tokyo.
So, to conclude, without needing 80 pages and the necessary citations from 120 authors of social, sexual and political behavior, I can summarize that Japanese society has built a model of social behavior that has led to the unanticipated and unwanted side effect where sex among people was gradually being abolished according to social expectations, coming to represent an atavistic, animal and uncivilized behavior, so people moved away from sex as once Greek society 2550 years ago did the same when influential philosophers abolished it. heterosexual sex and adopted the male homosexual sex and considered that sex with inferior beings like women and with slaves and with the poor was not up to the Olympian gods or men of superior intellect.
