旧宮家養子案は世界の笑いもの。マレーシアの新聞より。
In 2021, a government-appointed expert panel advised the government to consider allowing the imperial family to “adopt” new male members – distant relatives that could be brought back into the fold.
But it is unclear if those men would be willing to give up their careers and freedom to continue the lineage.
The panel also said royal daughters – currently forced to leave the family after marriage – could potentially continue their public duties after their nuptials.
Traditionalists have asserted that the “unbroken imperial line” of male succession is the foundation of Japan, and major changes would divide the nation.
Under the post-war constitution, the royal family holds no political power.
Historically, women who wed royals have faced intense pressure to produce sons and some family members are regular subjects of online and media gossip.
