Understanding the Non-Disclosure of Gender in the Birth of the Komuro Couple’s Child: Cultural Perspectives and Privacy Concerns

Question from a reader:
I heard that Mako-san from the Komuro couple has given birth, but what is the reason for not disclosing the gender? Perhaps Kei-san is a special person, and the Imperial Household Agency may want to avoid discussing it too much.

The Birth of the Komuro Couple and the Circumstances Behind It

Recently, news about the Komuro couple
has surfaced. With Mako-san giving birth, many are speculating about the reasons behind the non-disclosure of the gender. I’ve thought about this matter as well, and I find it interesting that there are various opinions on the topic.

Protecting Personal Information and Its Culture

Personally, I can understand the choice not to disclose the gender to protect the child’s privacy in today’s world. In Japan, the protection of personal information is highly valued, and considering the child’s safety, it’s understandable to want to keep certain details private. As a dad myself, I also wish to provide a calm and safe environment for my child. However, it seems that due to recent trends and possibly the influence of social media, there has been an increase in deliberately hiding information to protect personal privacy. This is reflected in celebrities who choose not to disclose their children’s names or genders, and it makes me feel like we are in a rather strange era.

The Royal Family and Its Impact

Moreover, I agree that Kei-san’s status as a special individual complicates the situation further. I find myself excited yet anxious about how the birth of him and Mako-san’s child will influence the future of the Imperial Family. Will the royal family continue to the generation of His Highness Prince Hisahito, and what lies ahead? It can be a bit unsettling to think about. When I was discussing this topic with a friend, he remarked, “No matter the gender, a child should be celebrated!” That really resonated with me. Indeed, the difference in gender is a minor detail. Reflecting on the current culture and trends in Japan, I feel that monitoring a child’s growth is what truly matters.
