After a few deep breaths to compose himself. "How about a compromise?" not seeing a favorable reaction he hurries on. "I think we are all interested in the same thing and that is the greatest number of grand babies possible."
Later that Evening Nabiki Ranma and Akane are in the Tea room with the TV on.
"We now interrupt our current programing for this breaking news announcement." - A Male voice from the TV at least twice as loud as the prior shows music had been. The scene changes to the station's news desk with their head anchor woman sitting at the middle of it.
"In session today our Diet have brought us a new law." The slightly miffed Anchor Woman reports. "In a nearly unanimous vote held in a special session earlier this afternoon. They passed a bill that wasn't even drafted until their earlier Lunch break." She appears to be trying to calm herself down. "In 6 months the Selective Insemination Service Act or SIS will go into effect. All Women entering secondary school or older must register for this, this Muffin Club Draft," She grips her copy in frustration. "or lose their citizenship.
"It seems waiting until marriage is no longer enough to ensure our culture survives the plague the Chinese cooked up. All women who have not experienced Menopause are to have annual fertility tests." With a shake of her head she gets up and walks off.
As a Technical difficulties graphic appears on the screen in the back ground can be heard. "Are they f***in serious about this?" The text of the legislation is then scrolled up the screen.
'Selective Insemination Service Act
Laymen Term Clarification
----------------------------------------
All Women of Japan are to register for Selective Insemination Service provided that they are old enough. All attending secondary school or older Must enlist or forfeit their citizenship along with all rights and honors included.
Signing up does not mean you will be impregnated, just that should population numbers continue to drop you will be called upon, by random selection, to be inseminated with donations collected from the greatest athletes and scholars Japan's Male population has to offer. Including but not limited to any Males who may also be capable of bearing children and are now Legally Women themselves.
(Followed by explicit legalese explaining procedures and the fact that married women are not exempt only currently pregnant or infertile ones are.)' The set is switched off by Akane and a shocked silence follows.
