On April 1, Japan will change its legal definition of an adult from those who are at least 20 years old to those who are 18 years old and older. https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.yahoo.com/amphtml/japan-change-age-adulthood-first-233238788.html --- https://imgur.com/mApEnf3 ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think its great that Japan is relatively lenient on minors, especially given that its legal system is kind of garbage otherwise. --- I'm Queen of Tomorrow baby! Remember: heat from fire, fire from heat! She/her ... Copied to Clipboard!

I used to buy alcohol at 18 years old in japan (okinawa prefecture). For some reason the family mart/lawsons over there didnt id me and my friends. At least now its legal. Also there was a fried chicken restaurant (near the sega arcade in american village) that used to let middle schoolers order alcohol. Like wtf. I wonder if it is still around --- I'm a Taurus I like collecting headphones and iems. My fave game of all time is DMC 3 SE on PC w/ style switch mod. IMO it the best button masher on earth ...

Kaiganeer posted... age of consent is still like 14 or somethingNot quite. AoC rules in Japan are labyrinthine, but can best be surmised as 14-17 + 14-17 = okay 14-17 + 17- 19 = okay if the older person is a girl. 14-19 + 20+ = always wrong (but criminal sentencing is usually less severe for older girls) Keep in mind this isn't all encompassing, and there are a lot of Grey areas that vary by district, so while this might not sound that bad its quite open to exploitation. Also I haven't looked this up recently so things might have changed or my numbers might be off. I'm also not sure if they do like America where consent laws are waived for married couples (child predators in America will often find a way to wedtheir targets to legalize what they do) Anways, the problem of Japan's declining birth rate is an easily solved one. But they aren't willing to reduce work hours to a standard maximum of 40 hours per week like we used to have in America. Without free time Japan won't be having kids. Getting more teens into the workforce isn't going to change that (in fact this will probably hurt it), but the LDP is hilariously inept for a party that's maintained power for nearly 60 years (give or take a couple of gaps) More and more of the world is becoming like Japan is too. As it turns out squeezing every last yen out of your employees, to the point that they drop dead from overwork in one of the most peaceful nations on the planet, is just not sustainable on any level. It's like when Abe began pushing for woman to join the workforce to save the economy. They did, the economy didn't budge because it's got no more to give, and now the birthrate is even lower and the women are being blamed for Japan's failed economy and birth rate. --- Others don't get to dictate what's normal and what isn't. It's something we decide for ourselves. That's why it's the most important thing to us. ... Copied to Clipboard!
