I once watched "Shouten" on TV in the sauna of a public bathhouse and was astonished at how "boring" it was.

In particular, the use of the lower part of the story is "vulgar". Moreover it was 'dirty'.

They are not afraid to use "old," "out of date," and "out of compliance" material, and they don't even realize it.

I could not bear to look and left the sauna room.

Perhaps this day's broadcast just happened to be such a bad turn of events.

Nevertheless, even if this is "old", it should match my age.

When I thought about it that way, it occurred to me that this might not be because of the "Shouten", but rather my problem as a receptive person.

The same goes for "Sazae-san."

I stopped watching them altogether and didn't want my children to see them.

I thought it would not be good from an educational standpoint.

At the very least, I don't want to make that family the norm in my family.

There was certainly a time when the Sazae-san style of family structure worked extremely well.

There is no doubt that it is the "Sazae-san-like family attitude" that has led to the threatened growth rate of "10% real economic growth rate, achieved for 19 consecutive years.

However, the attitude is not good for the current era -- or even "harmful"

In my mind, one of the individuals who firmly asserted these values was the "late former Prime Minister Abe" and the religious group that continues to firmly assert them is the "former name of Unification Church".

Of course, Japan has "freedom of thought and conscience (Article 19 of the Constitution)" and "freedom of religion (Article 20)," and any way of thinking should be free.

As long as it is an individual or a corporation that does not make unorthodox donations, ruin individuals and their families, and still call itself a "religious corporation" and make maximum use of its interests.

I digress a bit.

Not laughing at "Shouten" and feeling disgusted by "Sazae-san" --

I sometimes wonder if these receptors of mine might be making me unhappy with myself.
