“Fasting Herbivores”: Increase in 30+ Virgins “Very Worrying”

Concern is growing about a new class of “herbivorous” men whose disinterest in sex has reached new lows, with these ageing virgins being dubbed “fasting herbivores.”
The Japanese media has successfully crafted a minor industry out of the “herbivorous males” and “carnivorous females” which are supposedly overtaking Japan (not that government statistics tend to dispute this) – and now have a new one, in the form of “fasting herbivores.”
According to surveys of men aged 25 to 34 conducted by one marriage research agency, only 14% now consider themselves “determinedly carnivorous.”
The rest is reportedly made up of various gradations of herbivore who express “problems with women,” “an inability to become assertive” or similar, with another 14% describing themselves as “having no interest in romance at all and being content to live a life without women.”
Half of these hardcore herbivores report having no sexual experience at all, and such totally unassertive and apparently disinterested men have been dubbed “fasting herbivores” – they are not only not eating “meat,” but are in fact not eating at all.
All this has incited the usual concerns about shrinking populations, and how terrible it is that there will not be enough young people around to pay for all the extravagant pensions the older generations voted themselves.
Whilst experts are still unable to offer much in the way of useful explanation for this chronic lack of interest in courting, fortunately there is always a ready population of lonely virgins on hand to be tapped for their insights, such as they are:
“Virgins at 30 – creepy!”
“Women really enjoy coming up with stories based on this ‘herbivore’ and ‘carnivore’ rubbish, don’t they?”
“When it comes to these surveys, would anyone admit to questioners they are a virgin in their thirties? I have to say I have my doubts about the survey.”
“The survey may be rubbish but I think it is true all the same…”
“With a browser and some ero-manga who needs women.”
“I got married and had a kid – very cute!”
“Thanks, for the sake of my pension.”
“Why does stuff like this get so much attention?” [The thread had attracted 14,000 comments at this point]
“Because of all the virgins on here…”
“Seeing how much interest this gets kind of shows just how little you virgins actually do ignore women.”
“Are you guys really all virgins? Some of the stuff you people say really tends to suggest that.”
“Look at all the virgins fighting amongst each other…”
“These articles are all framed for old hags: herbivores = ones who won’t do them.”
“Saying they are ‘fasting’ implies they will starve to death, but I don’t think celibacy works like that.”
“You can be satisfied as an onanist!”

Is it me or is there growing population of wizards going on o Japan....
Well, why you wouldn't want to be a wizard, ifyou're an otaku anyway? You're sex life wouldn't change and you would never have to pay for anything.
Did you just call him a sex life? How dare you?
Well, oops?
Ahahaha fagfgot
He just called him nothing, the meanie.
“With a browser and some ero-manga who needs women.”
it's a whole new world, soon we'll have options mage/warlock..
I'm going for demi-lich myself.
I'm going for healer
I 'm going for an Incubus. Make up for lost time.
I'm going for fighter
I'm going for Turtle. Wait this isn't Dragon Ball Online
Going for a monk, be good with my fists.
And I'm going for a demonic genie of the magical girl making variety.
Say... do you guys want to fight evil in frilly dresses? All you need to do is sign this totally inconspicuous flaming contract paper. Don't worry, there are no clauses concerning anyone's soul. Although I'm going to eat yours if you sign anyway. Muwahahahahaha!
Going for Assasin. Isihara, your time has come *goes sneaking to the tune of Wicker man*

i bet there's a large growing population of female wizards as well...
lol yes, wizards, with cape and wizard hat, casting eroticism... XD
They are wizards, but their wands are limp.
Wait, so did Snape kill Dumbledore as a result? Thanks in advance.
But they have mana, don't let succubus' get your mana boys!
Serious note:
I think all this can be blamed to women, they are free now and don't know what to do with that freedom. If not so perfect man tries to make contact with them, he is made to look like a creep and/or they call the cops.
I'd rather fuck prostitutes.
Maybe if you weren't such a creep this wouldn't happen to you.
To Anon 21:28. How come that someone who dislikes the opinion of others immidiatly start calling them creeps or less human?
Without rape, there'd be more wizards.
So gaijin should say hello more often.
Yeah, Mage Guilds are beginning to open up everywhere over there.
They are not mage guilds. they are smart men like those of the MRA (Mens Rights Activist) movement in the U.S.
I support MRA!
It's because they have a magic academy over there. Haven't you watched anime before man?

How can not when men want to EAT 13-17 year old and they are hunted down instead?
Many want sex but authorities dont let them, no wonder many just give up instead of getting into trouble.
Just see history, those gars are normal for sex, have always been its just Christianity that has generalized their screwed up morals.
what's the point of trying to go only after the most fertile females when they are less experienced. And it's clearly not for procreation's sake. That's just a fetish. There are better fetishes out there.
That's just a fetish.
Any form of sexual behavior that does not strictly fulfil the purpouse of procreation is considered a fetish nowdays.
There are better fetishes out there.
Talk about completely missing the point. The only "better" fetish is the one that makes you happier. Procreation has nothing to do with it, and it never did.
The point I was trying to make was why limit yourself to one troublesome demographic, and only that one group. There's a whole wide world of women out there beyond teenage girls.
Nope. It's the Victorians. Blame the English.
The puritains were happily fucking 12 year olds until the Victorians spread AOC across the western world.
What happens to lions when the gazelle become too fast to catch? They become vegetarian.
If you have Yellow Fever, now is the time to go to Japan.
I may have yellow fever, but I'm allergic to children.
I'm also allergic to children. Although I like some of the Hentai versions only. 2d yes 3d Definitely no it makes me puke! Hands off until the law says hands on which will say never and that's ok I rather prefer woman in the 30's age limit. I was sexually abused when I was younger that is why my chemistry likes Hentai kids age 13+ that look like adults. Damn the globalist Elite who run the U.S. for encouraging child pedophilia for the rest of the population! To tell the truth I wish their was a psychological cure for liking Hentai! It's to sinful to see! I'll burn in hell someday if I do not find a cure. Wish me luck for a cure. Or should I just learn to accept this behavior.
I don't think the bible says anything about imaginary little girls...although I'm not sure if it says anything about real little girls either.
Don't confuse Pedophilia with either Hebephilia or Ephebophilia. Attraction to someone of the opposite sex who is sexual mature (ie. old enough for reproduction) is hardwired into the DNA. The only "cure" for that is death or some kind of freakish mutation -- and both are tickets for a Darwin Award. "Age of Comsent" is simply an arbitrary and capricious number that varies from jurisdiction to jursidiction and has no natural or biological basis.
tl;dr -- relax and enjoy the view -- it's what nature intended.

Well If you are using "bible standards" then if there is grass on the field play ball. Get yourself a couple of cows, some silver and some wheat and trade them to some dude for your new child bride. Since people rarely lived to 40 it was ok.
The bible refers to any image referring to a female of feeling lustful about whether imaginary or real. Either way I do not want to burn in hell. Comment by Anonymous 09:47 29/10/2012 # ! Neutral (0) I stated above I prefer women at age 30. I plan on living to my 80's. I'm perfectly healthy.
If that were still possible, it's likely that we'd see the mass disappearance of wizards...
Funny how in most far eastern countries it's a problem with the fast rising population but in Japan it's the opposite... I think China and India need to get otaku culture spreading in their countries to fix their problems!
There was an article once that said there are a growing concern in China that Japanese anime culture is slow deteriorating the morals of Youth and creating a weak generation of Chinese herbivores unfit to serve the PLA army.
Oh god, that article was hilarious.
India? Still probably fucking like rabbits.
not to mention having women who think nothings more attractive than a large bank balance
It's already underway.
Though it is in its infancy stage though. Deteriorating a culture and its people takes time.
so it's be insulted or have a chance to be arrested cause "the girl got bored and told you on the police"
So basically women eating meat rods = carnivore and men eating bushes = herbivore and what is wrong about that exactly?
A society that pushes competition and shame on people since childhood has a large amount of unsociable shut-ins? I'm shocked.
Yeah, Japan's hole society is killing itself.
Yeah, and ll these abomination culture will die out with the Japanese.
So, finally all those overseas otakus and herbivours will finally come to their senses with the extinction of Japan.
And guess what, China is willing to lend a hand in that matter.
Dont forget us nigga's! Wer'e comin' for yo jap Bitches! >:D
That culture of competition is present in all east asian societies. China is far worse - kids in 5th grade are known to study until midnight - yet it's Japan that had these problems, even though their academic pressure is low compared to China and Korea.
The real cause is distribution of wealth. Old fossils held all the wealth in Japan. It's also true to a degree in western societies, but not to such an extent. Chinese millionaires tend to be young and aggressive.
South Koreans study around the clock.
The asians, the reasons why they push their young so hard is because of this:
They do not wish to serve or be under "the man" as other minorities have been. I don't blame them.
