There have been many young women who live on their parents, don't want to get married, don't want to do house work, and have dead-end jobs in Japan.
They are called "parasite singles".
Many of you might have heard of them or seen them; they hang out with their girlfriends, go out to dinners, buy expensive designer clothing, jewelry with their parents' money. They don't want to get married because they don't want to be housewives who would have to wait for their drunken husbands to come home after midnight, or stay home and take care of their children by themselves which they think they would have to because their husbands wouldn't help them. They are very educated and traveled so being a housewife is not good enough.
Now, I understand that they seek for high standard in their lives which is good, but shame on them! What's wrong with housewives? I don't think having expensive clothes or brand bags can make their value higher. Why don't they like house work? I am happy that I can stay home and cook all day or do things around the house instead of going to a stressfull world outside. What are they going to do when their parents aren't around?
Any thoughts on this?
