Modern world puts pressure on the culture.

I saw a documentary on this in the 2000s. A lot of girls in Japan still want to own a kimono but their super expensive. Traditional silk takes days to make and days still to produce the garment. Its the same for Katana, the blacksmiths who still make the old school only do about 200 a year tops. Likewise the role of a woman and man is being challenged because traditionally, when a woman ran a business and she married the husband took over, meaning that business was no longer hers. There is a lot of pressure on younger people as well and the older folk were talking about how marriage to the elders doesn't mean the same as the younger Japanese anymore. A lot of the older woman for example just ended up accepting things as they were. I'm afraid the west is somewhat taking some of the blame here on things. :-/
