Women “would have their uteruses removed when they turn over 30,” Naoki Hyakuta, leader of the Conservative Party of Japan, said in a stream on his YouTube channel on Friday.
On the channel, he also said that he would make it law for “women who are single after 25 years old not to be allowed to marry.”

Later, Hyakuta posted an apology on his X account. “I cannot deny that the expressions were too harsh,” he said. “I apologize for those who were offended.”

Because reading those sentences severely reduced my intelect, can please someone explain the brain dead logic of that loon? in very simple terms
What is to gain from sterilizing women? In a severely aged country with low birth rates, as it is?
Its a threat to woman that if they don't get married young and have babies, the government will hurt them.
That it. Do what we say or else. The standard conservative line with women.
With trumps win, expect more of this. Being a complete piece of shit clearly works, so this will only escalate. Getting attention, even by being a vile misogynist, is a winning move now.
Pfft, he's doing an amateur job of intimidating, then. It should have been thumbscrews or something. This way seems self defeating.
Nah, it clearly appeals to a subset of voters in some democracies, and those voters apparently turn out.
True, your policies don't have to make sense if you win.
That being said, this guy runs a fringe party. They have a whole 3 seats in the Diet's lower house and none whatsoever in the upper.
This seems to be about oppressing women while uplifting the creepiest sort of men.
To give the maximum benefit of the doubt (which frankly, I don't think they deserve), there's evidence to suggest that birth defects become more likely as the mother gets older. I've always understood that to happen in women of a more advanced age though, 30 is too young to be a cutoff.
Also, women can't marry older than 25? What kind of bass ackwards handmaid's tale bullshit is that? If you want to have a family I guess you've got to hitch your wagon to any horse you can get your hands on. They're so fortunate though that the law doesn't apply to men, so they'll have plenty of creepy fifty year old dudes to choose from.
I think as a rule we should start sterilizing politicians who endorse sterilization. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, right? Of course, a hysterectomy is quite an invasive procedure compared to a vasectomy, so maybe in the interest of equitability we should begin with castration.
Anyway, this kind of rhetoric isn't really for women - they just happen to be the ones affected by it. For the men that this appeals to, they're probably believe they're more likely to attract a virginal beauty if they start removing women's options. It's truly abhorrent.
Sterilization for those who support it seems a fair proposal. Set an example.

Japanese instructors in college would tell us how older unmarried women would be referred to as 'Christmas Cakes'--no one wanted one after the 25th. Although they were happy that had been a changing attitude.
