East Asian cultures like Japan and South Korea are extremely chauvinistic when compared to Western societies. Gender roles are still strong and women are expected to be a "good wife" taking care of kids, house chores, etc.
It's no surprise that educated ones will reject that, as a sibling comment mentions, Japanese women labour participation is lower than in Western societies.
- forgotoldacc 2y agoOne thing that's not unusual in Japan is for women here to want to be housewives. A lot of people just don't like office politics and commuting and there's nothing wrong with that. The idea that educated people MUST work at a company feels kind of antiquated, honestly. Normalize education for the sake of simply having educated people in society.
