All meanings of these words have dictionary meanings unless the context is explained specifically otherwise.
Japan has a high GDP and is a top economy of the world. It is dysfunctional and socially backward because it is still based on outdated tradition (family honour execessively being placed as a high priority in a toxic way and socially backward as they don't tend to think critically and rather go by emotions as in the case of encouraging young people to drink more at the cost of their phyicial health. They also have very bad mental health care system despite all the executive power and ability and MONEY to change it.)
Child Abuse and Neglect has been found to cause and sometimes if not cause, it exasperates, problems in socializing, and being mentally healthy later in adult life. In Japan, we all know the suicide rates are high and young people, tend to not want to interact often and prefer being indoors or even if they do interact, there's just not enough sex going on to replace the Japanese population properly. Well it is no surprise then that -
to support what has been said by Intelligence_06: please define the ambiguous terms, namely:
rich;
dysfunctional;
backward;
socially backward;
progress
and give context to:
regressive;
sexist
Japan is not a rich country. Maybe slightly above poor at best. And South Korea is definitelly not a rich country. Just look at the rent cost. Also check the suicide rates, its funny. I mean, there is no such thing as a rich capitalist country. All capitalist countries are just utterly poor or very close to being poor.
First, don't enter your first round argument in the description, this isn't the old DDO. If this isn't one, please make smooth clarity instead of giving us planes for counterattacks that we can grapple on.
For example, define what "socially backward" is. Don't expect us to follow what you are saying if you don't put the exact framework into a manifestation in words.
Facts. I was just going to comment. What's wrong with women enjoying being stay-at-home-moms? studies show women are generally happier this way ( i still think people should not be coerced into this) but its something to factor into these discussions.
I actually prefer some of their culture.
Men are generally still truly men and women are still truly women there. They didn't let that part of leftist ideology ruin masculinity and femininity.
They are taking left wing ideology without the sissifivation of men aspect.
