      • What's wrong with Indifference toward Relationship?

        Japan Times is such a conservative newspaper. Here I casually analyze an article "For many young Japanese, marriage — and sex — are low priorities" by Tomohiro Osaki. First case Nakamura. I mean he is great. Capitalists must be scared of
