Women “would have their uteruses removed when they turn over 30,” Naoki Hyakuta, leader of the Conservative Party of Japan, said in a stream on his YouTube channel on Friday.

On the channel, he also said that he would make it law for “women who are single after 25 years old not to be allowed to marry.”

(…)

Later, Hyakuta posted an apology on his X account. “I cannot deny that the expressions were too harsh,” he said. “I apologize for those who were offended.”

    They reason (and I want to stress that it’s their ideology, not mine) that men can keep doing crotchspawn when they are old. So the obvious solution is to force girls to marry and get breeded by men off all ages. /s but unfortunately not so much

      men can keep doing crotchspawn when they are old.

      But if women can’t, why would there be need for sterilization?

      I know you’re probably right, just trying to point out the absurdity.

        Risk of developmental difficulties increases with mother’s age.

        Father’s age too, but I think that’s a lesser impact.

        Also, having a threat towards women (but not men!) is just part of the selling point.

        I’m not at all saying that these are good arguments, but they might be the motivating factor. Personally, I think it’s mostly about the threat to women.

          Oh yes, of course this was pure misogyny. Plain and simple
