The small number of Japanese women I know in Australia universally say it's not a kind place to give birth in, or raise a young child. They prefer Australia for that "warts and all"

Japan as I understand it has strong conformity drives which runs counter to both immigration-assimilation in non Asian cultures and to young women seeking independence in their life.

> non Asian cultures

It’s actually worse for Asian non-Japanese cultures. You’re basically expected to stay in the circle of your culture, whether you like it or not. For non-Asians, it’s easier for them to be distinguished visually, of course, but at least Japanese people are not likely to have hostile emotions on them..
