Laughs in middle eastern countries.
Population growth slows down when society becomes so poor that women MUST work and coupled with western trash values. Take those away, such as examples of infiltrated western vassal states or western states itself and your spiel falls apart.
Funny how Europe went from cavemen to literally discovering the aeroplane without having significant woman's education and how suddenly all 'development = women's education' speil has been applicable ONLY for the last 100 years.
Countless articles, mostly by westoids that how japan's birthrates are falling apart and they often blame 'hikkimoris' = japani lowlife loners incels about it; while big picture reality is Japan is extremely expensive country to start a family - and average salaryman or officelady who works 12 hours at least a day and yet gets paid in amounts whose actual purchasing power is not much - just simply cannot start a family; then they have giga boomer tier mindsets regarding everything including properties that suggest inheriting a home or some solid bank balance means giving a big lump sum to their govt in form of taxes; and many people just avoid taking it under them to not pay taxes and doing additional paperwork - result there are so many older 70s era homes which are often rented out to poorest stratra of people while newer homes with relatively better constructions and facilities are expensive to live as rental or own.
their infamous whooping debt-to-gdp ratio which has crossed 300 percen already is clear indication of their actual 'poverty' in this regard
result is it's just excruciatingly hard for lower middle class silent majority there to have children on single parent income, sometimes even on double parents incomes...and you have scenarios where 1 in every 200 japani woman ha worked in porno in one way or other be it direct or indirect
to get monies for their needs...and less said about their overly consumerist culture that got spiraled out of such realities is better
and Hikkimori-ism is not limited to Japan only now, even China is having their own bunch of lonely men who cannot get laid, Korean women who are pro-feminazi to extremist levels that they actively go against dating their men is a known thing, and even western people are seeing limited level of lonely shut-in incels like people.
But one thing that's common among all is, working women, and its consequences.
For japan, their birthrate, whatever it is now, 1.2% some, is heavily skewed on favour of their suburban and rural people, their metropolitan urbanites who are lower middle class and below are absolutely FUBARed; even Shinzo Abe's assassin was among this group - he was loner, her mother was mentally abused in giving monies to some cult, he lived in run-down type of shared rental home with many people togethe and what not...you can say one big factor behind Abe's death was this grim reality and its consequences only.
