The celibacy syndrome (Japanese sekkusu shinai shokogun) is a syndrome causing young people to resent sex. In Japan, adults loose interest in conventional relations, including love, dating, courting, marriage and sex.

Japanese men nowadays are less solvent due to 20 years of economic stagnation, and feel crushing pressure to fulfill the ideal of hardworking family father. Japanese career women on the other hand are asked huge flexibility, inevitably leading to resignation of women once they get children. Both sexes conclude relations are too complicated and exchange mutual long term goals for short term virtual gratification like porn and anime, or even non-sexual games. Apart from this rather rational choice, some people also develop psychological barriers.

In combination with the growing number of elderly, the absence of newborns leads to a demographic catastrophy.
