FAQ
Why do you do what you do?

Antinatalism Japan (ANJ) exists to advocate for antinatalism and prevent the start of existence of painient beings.
Why should I join ANJ?
Benefits of joining ANJ include reducing the time and the financial cost of starting and continuing your journey as an antinatalist activist, and having a place to meet your fellow antinatalists and interact with them.
If you are interested in street outreach, for example, you can join us and immediately take your first step as an activist, without spending your own time and money on designing, printing, crafting, and storing signs.
Will I have to pay for my membership?
There is no membership fee to be paid.
Any financial cost of running ANJ is covered only with donations from within and outside the organization.
If you are financially comfortable, you are of course very welcome to donate to us!
Can I join ANJ despite adentifying as a 'hanshusshou-shugi-sha' rather than a 'museishoku-shugi-sha'?
You are very much welcome to join us.
We use the term 'museishoku-shugi' as the name for what 'antinatalism' should really be (refer to 'Why Museishoku-shugi?' here).
If you are worried about any potential misalignment between museishoku-shugi and your antinatalism, we recommend you to join us as an associate member first.
What political party or religion backs ANJ?
ANJ is a group of volunteers launched by two individual antinatalists, Yuichi Furuno and Asagi Hozumi, and has no affiliation with any religious or political organizations.
Antinatalism is an ethical view and goes against the teachings of many religions.
