Perhaps partially due to the fact that people just aren't procreating? A survey published last week of Japanese attitudes towards sex caused a stir with the claim that about 40% of young single men and women have never had sex – a phenomenon that is being blamed for the low birthrate in Japan, where it is predicted the population will plummet from 127 million over the next century. The National Institute of Population and Social Security Research’s poll of 5,000 single men and women aged 18-34 found that the proportion of virgins had increased significantly over the past decade: among men, 42% said they had never had sex; among women the figure was 44%. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/28/japan-poll-linking-sexless-singles-to-low-birth-rate-causes-stir https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/sep/28/japan-poll-lin...
