So now you're getting even more arbitrary. "There's a difference between choosing to do something and being forced to do something" You have any evidence that this actually makes a difference and affects anything other than your ass? (you're also lying since you did initially claim anime with "submissive females" was a cause even though most Hollywood films presented women as submissive sex objects even more in the past and the past is when sex rates were at its highest) And the US is functionally the same since funnily enough, Japan has mandatory maternity leave which the US doesn't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parental_leave
Not sure if you're being intentionally dense or you genuinely are but you're missing the point once again. The point is that you are baselessly correlating random things with each other with zero evidence that's how it actually works and instead more likely that it doesn't because other countries prove you wrong. Your "it's not one size fits all" argument is just you making an excuse for posting any bullshit that you want. Hey, Japan has practically no crime rate. Maybe that's linked to low sex and birth rates too! Japan is top 5 biggest exporters in the world. That too might be linked to low sex and birth rates. Especially since the other top 5 exporters all have declining sex and birth rates, one having even less than Japan.

I've backed everything up. You haven't. If you'd take your head out of your ass instead of denying everything, you'd actually see the big picture. I already posted numerous articles on how over 50% of Japanese women leaving the workforce after giving birth to a child. And it has a lot to do with societal pressure and workplace sexism. If you don't believe it, you don't understand Japanese culture and you need to read up.

I've already said there were multiple factors and I highlighted many of them. Anime and video games are a factor whether you like it or not. Most people don't mention it because they don't have the balls to put their hobbies in a bad light, even when they know it is sometimes.

I play videogames and watch anime movies, but at moderate doses. Many people in Japanese has an unhealthy obsession with it. The consequence of Anime pandering to subcultures hasn't gone unnoticed. Dating sims, virtual girlfriends, anime obsession, reclusive gaming, social withdrawals are becoming the norm in Japan. They leave men unable to deal with real women and they find real women "scary" because they're nothing like the anime characters.

There are thousands of articles on the internet explaining the reasons behind Japan's population decline. Many of those articles share the same views as I do. This just one of them:

If you want to ignore it, that's YOUR problem, not mine.
