Guy is an idiot or at least misinformed if he believes this is why Japan has no kids lmfao. For a upenn grad this is some sophomoric thinkingHe’s pretty based tbh. He’s right about everything below. Based Trad Luigi

Admit that you didn't like his suggestion of banning the fleshlights.
I don’t think what he said was causal (ie, an explanation of why) or meant to be scientific, Doc. I think he meant it’d help people connect more and is addressing the sort of alienating attitudes that are endemic in pretty much every highly developed society. It’s so difficult to even date and people genuinely do not care about families anymore. (People just feel alone in general tbh)
I think it’s anti-life and anti-human; he seems to think the solution could be targeting something more cultural.
What is your alternative? Real question. Not just for Japan, but say for somewhere like Germany which also has low natality.
Not good.

That may have played a part in my thought process LMAO
It’s not cultural it’s financial. Over there, a successful man makes around 100k CAD a year before taxes. This is considered a king tier salary, you can be ugly as sin and still have a girl marry you, but even at 100k a year, unless you marry a woman who can help with finances significantly you can MAYBE support 2 kids with massive concessions in terms of life style.
people who make average amounts of money simply cannot afford to have children, it’s not even on the radar, by the time they make enough money to afford kids, they’re practically in geriatric care.
when I worked as a surgeon in bumfuck rural japan, I made around 225-250k cad a year. This was enough to make me considered a god amongst men over there but for my specialty I made around 3 times LESS than my colleagues based in Canada.
First world countries when deprived of finances choose to have less kids.
I think this is really contentious.
Also none of this reasoning involves any of your expertise so far — what did you learn at the fertility clinic in Japan?
Most of my clients were very wealthy lawl, wasn’t my clinic I just worked part time there to help out cause the professor told me to. Never really saw average people coming in for consultations or anything, was usually just very ritzy rich types. I remember a lot of the husbands would come in with a watch much nicer than mine (and I love watches!).
I’m not an economist so you calling it contentious has some merit. Anecdotal evidence and all that
Tbf I am a hypocrite with my nightstand full of vibrators lol (plus my choice of profession, wompwomp), maybe I’ll get to changing that soon and try to do my small part for humanity
The tone of the reporting on Luigi doesn't seem all together unsympathetic. Which is understandable to me.
Found this on Reddit about the shooter. My man sharing his thoughts on the matter, he sounds confident. lol
