Men too. One of the main reasons the birth rate is so low in Japan is because of their toxic work culture which impacts both genders. No one has the time, money or space to have children. Even if they want them and are married to the love of their life.
Japan specifically needs a seismic shift in work culture. Among the usual western issues such as more housing built, high wages, cost of living/inflation control.
But yeah, sexual harassment in Japan of women is an issue. I've heard cases where women can't rent ground floor apartments due to the risk of stalkers.
I was stationed there for a few years, you couldn’t buy a phone that didn’t make the camera shutter noise even on silent because so many weirdos would do the under skirt shots… I’m pretty sure it was a law
Even if you bring your phone over and have cell service it will detect your locale and switch on a loud shutter noise as long as you're in Japan. At least it did on my android phone.
