I think you have to remember before Porn was on the internet, I imagine guys fapped a lot less...

Nope. We had magazines back then.

The porn is so much different these days, it wasn't that much of fantasy material as it is today, and the stories (they actually had background stories back then) were made more to resonate your actual life, as today it tries to be something that's not possible in real life.

And, the problem isn't jerking off, but creating expectations your partner can't meet. Female equivalent would be overly romantic partner created by reading Harlequin, or someone like you should have according to Cosmopolitan. Or, why not expecting your partner to have 35cm dick. If the requirement are not met, you're not getting turned on. This is the problem.

This is kind of a similar trend to west - only a step or two further. The modern western young male have hard time getting it hard, which is caused by (excessive) watching of porn. Because of that, your real-life partner can't match fantasy image you've created. Looking at hentai, furries and all the overly sexualised anime characters, the Japanese youth is raised in an environment where there's no (human) sex, even the stereotypical anime female is dumb/naive enough to know what sex is.

Another thing is nutritional factors, especially on the exchange students. Japanese eat lots of seafood, which contain lots of iodine and other trace elements. Iodine causes high SHBG (low levels of free sex hormones), while selenium and zinc raise the sex hormone levels. Eating western, especially low meat and no organs, food that's depleted of pretty much everything (except for carbohydrates) is causing sex drive getting even lower. And, if you do not spend time on sunlight, the lack of D is only going to make things worse (this happens naturally for example when you move to northern and colder atmosphere).

Speaking as a young Western male, the lack of sex I'm having has nothing to do with porn and everything to do with the inability to find a willing partner. Guess I could always blame Hollywood for giving women standards I can't meet. :P

I think that now explains the Japanese exchange students at my University lack of interest in guys and girls... 

Yeah, its likely that aversion/disinterest in sex is ingrained to the point where it would persist even without them being immersed in their native culture.

(I mean, obviously not all Japanese are anti-sex, I'm just talking in broad demographic strokes here)

Three years ago I was significantly overweight, I had to bust my arse to get to where I am now, I've lost 27kg since then.

Ya that's probably what i'm going to do. Makes me wonder, how much pussy did George get before Seinfeld? 



In Japan this exodus from sex is so prevalent there's even a term for it: Sekkusu Shinai Shokogun, or "Celibacy Syndrome".

A lot of observers have even blamed dating sims, saying it draws young people away from the real thing.

Most likely this is caused by a number of things and not just one. However, the dating sim reminded me of one thing, which, based on observations on media and social media, it's getting more common for relationships being considered as games that you're supposed to win somehow.
