Japan's sex inactivity continues to puzzle researchers

Original: Japanese people still aren't having sex. And nobody knows why

Japanese adults continue to report low rates of sexual activity and experience, and researchers remain unable to pinpoint the cause. Surveys suggest a large share of young Japanese have never had sex, despite long-running public debate over the country's declining birth rate. Scientists say common explanations, from economic pressure to shifting social norms, fail to fully account for the trend, leaving the question open.

Why now: The enduring mystery of Japan's low sexual activity and its links to the country's demographic crisis keeps drawing interest.
