Japanese men are said to be increasingly abandoning women in favour of relationships with their cats, and these men are being told they need to aim for untaken older women if they are to have any chance.
These “cat loving men” (猫好き男子, or “neko suki mens” as the Engrish has it) are now said to be a common fixture of neko cafes, and enjoying a steady increase in numbers.
Such men are said to treat women as they do cats, observing them quietly from afar without pursuing them for stroking action.
As such these men are branded a type of “herbivorous” man, concerned with harmonious relations and unlikely to pursue women.
These useless men are advised to pursue older women in their thirties, “as most of the women past 30 with no lover are gone, they may have better luck here.” They may find a “rare and exquisite bloom.”
Naturally, 2ch has much to say about all this:
“Getting rid of all those leftover women is hard, eh?”
“So you want them to marry some old biddythen.”
“WRONG: Cat men should aim for women over 30.
RIGHT: Cat men, please take what’s left over from the past it crowd.”
“Cats >>>>>>>>>>>>> Women in thirties”
“Overstock bargain sale?”
“Cat men should watch out for women in their thirties, is it?”
“I like cats, but old women are a bit…”
“I sometimes think it would be better to marry my cat. Humans cost money and are a hassle…”
“Desperate to create a boom for the sake of these leftovers aren’t they?”
“Cat lovers are a bit like lolicon really.”
“Cats totally won out in this thread.”
“Real woman vs Cat:”
“Cats are cute even when they are old. Women on the other hand…”

Just so we are clear you know PETA would gas chamber the cats cause they've been domesticated right?
NYA? o_0
Dogs are better.
I soooo totaly agree with this.
I have 5 cats, but i wouldn`t say no to a 30 year old woman!
Ah good, more women for me! :P
You couldn't get a woman if you had a $100 bill hanging out of your zipper.
Cats win. Nuff said. they are suppppper cute.
A cat is ok to
So is Japan going to have crazy old cat men now?
And cats are not cute when they are old either. It's pretty sad watching my friend's cat wander about, just waiting for it to finally die and be out of its misery.
C-MEN
Yamamoto Mona=slut.
pussy vs. pussy..
pussy wins
“Cat lovers are a bit like lolicon really.”
Lol?
Cats don't care if you're not in the top 5% of most socially dominant people on earth. A cat will always love you.
2d women > 3d cats > 2d cats >..................... > Malaria > 3d women
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Good one.
It's damn hard to find a good 3D woman. Good thing that there are always 2D chicks.
Malaria?
Lol whaa?
FALCON PUNCH~!!
This is supposed to be a reply to Tex-Arcana, btw.
Damn error 408.
Been getting it all night.
At least you're still on the right topic...
I'll go for cats, of course. Plus, you get to achieve the title "Owner" by simply serving and make the cat as your master.
Serving the cat, who is your master?
That sounds almost like S-M :D
I want a cat too but... I want a cat that looks like Blair of soul eater :D
Well at least they still have a pussy no matter what.
By the way Japanese really are lolicons. A 30 year old woman doesn't look like that. Lot's of times you can't even tell the difference between a woman in her thirties and twenties. They should have written 40 year old women not thirty.
My sister is thirty and if i didn't knew her i could easily think she is 20-25.
I dated a 40 year old viatnamese cougar who looked 25
Am i the only one or do I detect some "D'aaaaaw~"ness in this article? :3
“Cats are cute even when they are old. Women on the other hand…” lol soo true :)
Indeed...
:D
Even if that guy did pull it off, it is probably a cheap whore or an AIDS carrier.
A cat a fine too for a pet but you can't have sex with them. So MILF for the win and I don't think men are the only problem here
These pussies (and I'm not talking about the women) need some guts; if you like a woman go for it! and what the hell is this shit about leftover women? what if she ain't a 18 year old daughter of a multimillion dollar company they won't even consider them worthy of their holy presence? please cut the shit down losers, go to something like Ouendan(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Y6qdp63cNk) and toughen up.
2D girls > Cats
Cats are fine too
At least the guys are still getting some pussy...
They can't fuck that pussy.
God, who the hell is the grandma? Put her in a bag and then throw it in the river..
We need more women who are satified with Food and love (like the cats) is the message of this. Women nowadays are too greedy to see the real value of a man,they just want to do what they want once they've grabbed a rich man that has nearly no time for them rather than being forced to spend time with their "poor" man that cares about his wife...
Don't force the old used hags who failed their lives onto those nice men, we don't need more "Hausdrachen" who make your life more miserable than it was in the beginning...
The sad truth is: A man doesn't need a woman for a good life but a woman needs a man for a good life (to live off his money,to brag with them like a branded bag and to nag at them when they're pissed,those are the things that women like to do) but can get all sympathy by having an animal companion. The sexual urges of a man are rather illusional and not really caused by hormones/biology, so if he stays away from porn/etc he'll most likely have no urges whatsoever...
dog man! we run around and at things we like,dislike interest or bore us...simple life.
Freakin women........ still complainin ad whinening.....
Cats are cute.
Deal with it.
Cats are better than people, they also cost a lot less money to care for.
But girlfriends/wives take care of you (love, cook, clean, sex) and if you have the right girl all you have to do is spend a little extra on food and make sure you buy video games, anime, and manga.
I don't consider those men 'useless'. They're just doing what they want to instead of following the 'supposed to' path.
Why don't we solve this by marrying an old cat lady? She likes cats so it would be like having a friend. She won't get pregnant, and she'll die soon and leave you riches.
True. That cat is cute(the only cute thing on this page)!!!
I've always loved cats. Kept dozens of them. The only problem is they don't live past 9 years and that's sad. EXTREMELY SAD. You actually CRY when your beloved cat departs.
Sometimes I think i should not get married at all. Weird but I suppose most men regret marriage.
If I do get married, I'd ask her what her requirements are first. If she fulfills her own requirements, only and only then will I marry her. Either equality or complete dominance (doesnt matter whether the wife or husband)
A cat can live up to 35 years. In fact my brothers cat is 15.
Marriages live LESS than 9 years, on average. And cats can live to ~20 if cared for properly.
When you're cat's mad, it'll scratch you. When your woman is mad, she'll fuck some other guy. Clearly, the cat is the better of the two.
It's time to play Whack-a-Kitty...
cats > 3d women
but... 2d women > cats
I don;t think so...
At the very least, the cat won't whine about not having a Louis Vuitton handbag or a new pair of shoes to go *with* the handbag. ><
Meaning, that since 60% of Japanese women want men who bring in over 100k in income annually, then that means the rate of men who get cats as opposed to marrying will also hit 60%, maybe. ;)
@ the gold-diggers out there: deal with it.
Meow!!! Bitches!!!
kittyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy nya
you are forgetting that you can have sex with women
Maybe they had one too many bad relationships same thing happens a here in the US except it's women who abandon men for cats.
Umm maybe there's solution here... though most cat women are not something I'd want.
That cat is so cute !
so cat-people really like pussies hehehe how extarordinaire
Dear lord: Japan's going for crashcourse. God save the islandians.
a cat is fine too
“Cats are cute even when they are old. Women on the other hand…”
Damn right!
Amen indeed
but it's not caturday
SOMEDAY THE PEOPLE OF JAPAN WILL BE SATISFIED! WHEN CATS AND WOMEN ARE MERGED INTO ONE! THIS COMPROMISE WILL MARK THE BEGINNING OF A NEW ERA!
well they have, that's why we have nekomimi..
Look at the image filenames. Seems like the article's author is well versed with the nuko.
rofl indeed
I find that all Japanese women past age 35 slowly become exact clones of one another. They all start wearing the same clothes, wearing the same make-up, and eventually become exactly alike in manner and speech. It's like some default switch in their brains turns them into little old okaasans and librarians regardless of whether they're married or work in a library.
Older women are more aexually-experienced and make more satisfying sex partners.
Make them into cat-girls.
Older cat-woman librarian with glasses. I'd love that!
Sexual experience does not usually equal sexual skill.
Frequently a woman will lie on her back and spread her legs for a hundred men, but still learn nothing.
For her hundred-and-first, she's still lying on her back and spreading and waiting for someone else to make everything happen.
Also - many sex partners => high risk for disease.
“Cats are cute even when they are old. Women on the other hand…”
It's so true...
Kawaii desu ne?!
Take that average Japanese women ! Where are your survey result now ? WHERE ?
lol, you really think it is such a great loss for women? XDDDDDDDDDDDD
Funniest stuff I have heard all day.
Can't blame them. Maybe some are hoping their cat will magically turn into a catgirl.
^Is that your cat, Artefact?
nah, maybe that's his "waifu"
You kidding Palmtop Tiger? XD I'm still waiting for my cat to turn into a nekomata. She's almost 14 years old.
But given the fact that nekomata are exclusively a Japanese creature, my chances look pretty bleak. ;_;
don't nekomata only grow their 2nd tail after 100 years? if so then you better be patient Miroku74
Catgirls > 3D Women = 2D Women > Cats
So they are telling these cat-loving men to go for cougars instead?
Cats > 30+ Women.
Any day.
Cougars are very dangerous animals. There's a REASON why they're hunted by men with guns and dogs.
Stupid man attempts cougar raep == epic fail, lots of human blood.
One kind of cougar is the quadruped.
Another kind is the bipedal woman past optimal fertility.
See the Penny Arcade hunting arc for an explanation.
Sad to see all the Japanese turning furry
nobody likes christmas cakes!
Omamori Himari FTFW!!!
Cats serve greater company than 3d Girls. But I do agree, 2D girls > Everything else.
Mix 2D Girl with Cat = Bonus.
Pretty great company. And cute too! :3
srsly
I love your cat, Artefact ;)
Develop the ability to do so and I'll personally pay you several million dollars for one
I get more lovin' from my cats then most women I've dated.
Amen +1 more to make OVER 9000
2D > Cats > Real women... Sadly, real women are pretty much garbage no matter what country you go to. It just seems Japan has taken it to the extreme, as they do with everything, and they have the worst women for your dollars (oh yeah, all women cost money, even when they aren't technically whores).
Japanese men really need to discover the epic awesomeness that are ferrets. They are the eternal kittens, though, they stink worse than the hikikimori owners they would have, lol.
Ferrets are awesome because they attract Nanohas.
And Nanohas attract Feitos... and Vitas... and Hayates... and Signums...
I disagree, follow the way of Negima, white ermine plzkthx.
+1
cats aren't exactly free either, you know.
and about the garbage part: look who's talking.
1+
get 30 year old in nekomimi and ill hit it
CATS FTW!
... If only I was alergic to women and not cats my life would be so much happier...
or alergic to dogs instead of cats... that would be the best senario for me
There's been significant progress in breeding Non-allergenic cats lately.
They're expensive as all hell right now, but it might drop in a few years, and you can have your own. So... good news, potentially.
begin = Serious Gendo speaks of cats & allergens serious /end.
In the Japan, women are true to farming as much as they are milked for supple youth. Damn these Japanese
cats ftw
“Cats are cute even when they are old. Women on the other hand…”
-So true..
Old nasty cat, throwing up hair balls and eating them again? with loose bowels? and bad shedding? you're crazy. I want a cat.
