As per records, Tokugawa Ienari - who was a shogun and died in 1841 - had fathered nearly 53 children
So...52?
Nah. He died during childbirth of the 53rd. Kid was already crowning, so just give him the W.
Wノ( º _ ºノ)
(ヘ º _ º)ヘW 🎎
Or something happened and they lost the pregnancy in a very late stage.
With that many children in that time period, they probably lost many that way. You don't add them all up to count as multiple birthed children.
Difference between
- nearly 53 children
- 53 nearly children
Way of the Househusband
So, uh, how does this guy attract women?
He does all the housework and cares the children. It’s so easy dude.
Also has an absolute monster dong. The Shinkansen of dongs.
I'm not sure Sexual Bullet Train is a good nickname.
Look, it's fast and very reliable. Explains all the children, really.
We can agree it's not a bad one though.
All 54 of the children? He really is a god of marriage.
Asking for a friend?
Okay wtf, this guy looks dumpy as shit and all his wives are decent looking too. Like… it’s not even a religious cult thing? It must be a combination of sexual prowess and mad levels of charisma that I will never be able to understand.
i think he's in a polycule of lesbians and is the token sperm donor
I think this is the most likely answer. Target women who are 1. Mostly attracted to other women and 2. Want to be in a polyamorous relationship. I’m basing this on zero information, but this is a scenario that would make sense to me.
Pic for reference
I looked them up. The women are pretty average by Japanese standards. They just know how to do their hair and makeup well and take care of their skin. And the guy while not really handsome looks better than many Japanese guys. Many Japanese men don’t know how to take care of themselves and dress terribly. They look like dweebs and are not charismatic and often misogynistic assholes.
If you dress well, are a gentleman and charismatic and not a misogynist you can easily woo women out of your league in Japan.
Well, looks aren't important to everyone, especially if the other person is ready to handle housework, br a stay at home husband, has plenty of charisma as you said, is caring etc.
The guy got a harem of career women, and his job is to raise the children. Sounds like they got it made.
He's probably got a hog on him
You've got to admire his spunk.
ew
Phrasing…
Good god, I have two kids and that's enough.
Right? This guy is absolutely insane.
I doubt he's a very good father to any of them. Probably can't remember most of their names.
Hell I've got 2 kids and 2 dogs (and fostering a third), and I fumble and jumble their names all the time. Usually get it right by the third name.
Our chickens are like 4 months old now. We have 9 and I can probably only name like half of them.
I never knew this was a competition, or a title you could aim for
And now you know are you up for the challenge?
a man with four wives and two girlfriends is aiming to give birth to 54 children
Hmm...
four wives and two girlfriends so far.
I hope his birth canal is ready, 54 kids is a helluva workout.
I think even I could work out a total of 54 minutes in a span of 7 years... I mean 3 hours- no, days, surely.
Especially if you want to do it all at once.
Wasn’t this the strategy of Bhaal, god of Murder?
And I thought a man with two wives would be happy
....Polygamous marriages are legal in Japan?
First line of the post is literally "In a country where polygamy is illegal"
I misread it also, to his credit
According to wikipedia, no: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_polygamy#Asia_4
We suspect this is why the term "partners" was used and not "wives".
