Is the “three highs”, which was once a condition of marriage that women want in men, still alive? Kazuma Sato, a professor at Takushoku University, said, “Third high school is no longer the first thing that comes out of a woman’s mouth as a condition for a marriage partner. The reality is that some of the three high schools have stricter conditions in recent years.”

What kind of person is easy to marry
What kind of person is it easy to get married?
This is a simple question, but one that worries a lot of people looking for a partner right now. Also, in Japan as a whole, the tendency to marry later and not to get married, which is considered to be one of the causes of the declining birthrate, can be said to be a very interesting answer.
In response to the question, “What kind of person is easy to marry?”, it was said that men who met the conditions of “third high school” were more popular and could be married around the time when the bubble economy was booming. These 3 highs are “highly educated”, “high income” and “tall”. Smart, rich, and tall. It certainly seems to be popular, and it would be perfect as a marriage partner.
What are the new conditions “3C” and “3 flats”?
Although these 3 high schools were convincing enough for women to look for in men, after the collapse of the bubble economy, people gradually stopped talking about them and they slowly disappeared. According to freelance writer Hiroki Muto, new conditions such as “3C” and “3F” will appear after 3rd high (*1). The 3Cs are “comfortable”, “communicative” and “cooperative”. In addition, the three flats are “average income”, “average appearance”, and “peaceful personality”. It can be said that the 3Cs and Sanhei were new standards that reflected the gradual decline of the Japanese economy after the collapse of the bubble economy.
From an economics point of view, 3 highs seems more persuasive than the 3 Cs and 3 flats. This is because all three factors are highly valued in the labor market, and are thought to lead to high evaluations as marriage partners. However, these days, the three high schools are not necessarily the first to come up as a standard for a marriage partner. The gap between this theory and reality is worrisome.
So, this time, I would like to investigate whether it is still easier for men in third grade to get married.
