it is their duty as a monarchlet them get jobs, and they'll be just as free as we are.
内閣は、天皇の国事行為（こくじこうい）について助言 と承認を行い、その責任を負います
I'm saying I think the monarchy should be abolished. You have your opinion; I have mine.

if tennou system is kept, it is no problem for me whether they work or not.
because it is an important nucleus of japanese identity.
Politics doesn't function without the emperor's approval for new Cabinet inauguration even midnight.
yes it is right.however is just for show as they are figureheads and have no "real" power.
he has "real power" because He has a powerless
Hachiro said:Yeah but I never have heard of any of them having to get up at 2 or 3 in the morning to nurse a sick child, and then get up for work at 5 to go make some money so their family can eat. Not saying they don't do it because I really don't know, but I can't image it happening either.
Do you honestly think Masako-sama makes Aiko-sama's bento for "bento-kai" at her day care center?
Our taxes pay for their lifestyle. I'm not against the royal family but I don't particularly like someone saying that they are "working harder" than us.

Manila said:In relation to the heir of the throne, Princess Akishino(Kiko), wife of Prince Akishino (Fumihito), is currently pregnant with their third child. Hoping that they may have a son, this may settle the problem on the world's oldest unbroken hereditary monarchy.
it means masako and aiko will have more trouble and pain.yet in a small I would like to see what happens of she has a girl.

継体天皇(#26)AD507-.....
samething was happend like today.
it means masako and aiko will have more trouble and pain.
because aiko won't marry by her intention or pressure , or will not have a baby
she make a line normal... to male in line
it means you dont want her a happy
it means that from amaterasu line is cut .If that happens I think it would be a great step forward for women in this country as well as give Masako-sama the joy in knowing that not only her husband would be Emperor but her daughter as well.
ppl should make masako to give up early.If you think about it if a boy is born Masako-sama would have more heartbreak knowing that she was not able to produce an heir to the throne. Talk about the pressure rising on her.
caster51 said:it means that from amaterasu line is cut .
we dont need such royal family that is meaningless.
some female emperor's great effort is not rewarded.
ppl should make masako to give up early.
she need a rest from pressure even now.
I am not because I hope only for Masako's line.ppl should make masako to give up early.
at fist,If that's the case how do you explain away the number of Japanese Empresses that already have been in the line. Using what you have written already as a guide, the line would have been broken a long, long time ago.

Japan Celebrates: It's a Boy!I thought the issue wasn't so much that there would be an empress as it was that the family line would cease to be followed through the males' lineage.
At 8:27 this morning, Tokyo time, Japan's Princess Kiko, the wife of Prince Akishino, Emperor Akihito's second son, gave birth to her first boy.
New-Born Prince Named Hisahito
Japan's newest prince has a name - Hisahito.
A traditional naming ceremony took place on Tuesday at the hospital in Tokyo where the prince and his mother are staying.
The baby was born to the Emperor's youngest son Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko last Wednesday.
Prince Hisahito is the first male born into the Imperial family in almost 41 years. He is third in line to the throne after the Crown Prince and Prince Akishino.
The name Hisahito was chosen by Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko in hopes that their son will live a long, peaceful life.
The Chinese character hisa means "eternal" or "calm." And hito is normally used in a prince's name.
Prince Akishino consulted the Emperor, the Empress and scholars before deciding on the name.
"It is a good name." "My grandchild has a name with the same character."
"I want to see the baby soon. I wonder when he will leave the hospital."
Besides getting a name, Prince Hisahito also received a symbol. His father chose a Japanese evergreen tree called koyamaki, or Japanese umbrella-pine.
The symbol will mark the baby prince's tableware and other daily items.
The umbrella-pine grows straight and tall, and its wood is valued as a strong, durable building material.
