A Land of Japanese Virgins

[bcrusaderw]

Speaking of body counts, here's an interesting article.

Takashi Sakai is a healthy 41-year-old heterosexual man with a good job and a charming smile. But he's never had sex, one of a growing number of middle-aged Japanese men who are still virgins.
Sakai has never even had any kind of relationship with a woman, and says he has no idea how he might get to know one.
"I've never had a girlfriend. It's never happened," he said. "It's not like I'm not interested. I admire women. But I just cannot get on the right track."
It might sound like the subject for a Hollywood comedy, but far from being the social misfit portrayed by Steve Carell in 2005's "The 40-Year-Old Virgin", Sakai is one of a crowd.
A 2010 survey by the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research found that around a quarter of unmarried Japanese men in their 30s were still virgins -- even leading to the coining of a specific term, "yaramiso", to describe them.

I am a 67 year old virgin. I never fit in anywhere. Not a single female has ever taken an interest in me for whatever reason. Dating? Gave up after years of not getting dates. Always wanted to be married, have kids, live a good happy life. I've tried churches, different social gatherings to no avail. Now I just don't care. Live in SoCal where supposedly anything goes. B.S. I just don't get it. I relate to the Japanese men. I don't blame women's lib or feminism. I can accept there is something wrong with me if I could only figure out and understand what it is. Good luck to all the single guys out there. Oh yeah, can't have sex now anyway. My body doesn't function down there any more.

No but I lowkey laugh at people who say sex isn't a big deal when 99.5% of the time they have had it or get it on a regular basis...it's no different than me trying to convince a homeless person how money isn't important when they would kill to have a lil' job and small place for themselves. Dude isn't even on the Elliot Rodgers tip either, he really thinks its something with him

Yeah but I feel like what cuts deeper is the loneliness or frustration of being ignored or outright rejected by females while at the same time seeing other dudes handle their business and having a good time like it's no big deal,must result in some feelings of inadequacy...
People like Kenttv come to mind here. Why not just pay an escort and "get it over with"?

Yup pretty much....this goes for women too.

But nah fukk Kent and the rest of those other complainers online...they feel as though they're entitled to p*ssy and they attack the very people they want acceptance from. Their problem is that they either don't look at women as human beings or they revere them waaay too much...even above themselves.

Its human to yearn for something so basic but that's where my sympathy begins and ends for them.

As far as why they don't pay for it, simple...its ego..they want the women to choose them...they want to actually be in a relationship. Paying for it to them cheapens the whole experience. Honestly the generic solution is to "focus on oneself and let women start choosin' once they see you're about something" but shyt isn't that cut and dry. Sometimes its just dealing with the cards you're dealt, (looks; money; height ;intelligence; disposition; character; etc.) and reconciling that with what you can actually get in the dating market.

Agree with all of this completely. It's already one bad thing to be down on yourself, but it's another to blame women and attribute all the ills of the world to them.

To put it simply, they want to be desired. That's the not-so-fun side of being a late bloomer as far as dating is concerned. You have no actual evidence or perception that there's a woman out there who likes you, wants to fukk you etc. In relation to other late bloomers, I'm fortunate that I have got to experience that, even though I didn't have sex till rather late.

I did consider paying for it, but in the end I didn't see the point.
