Dont blame Me…Thats the title for the post on “What Japan thinks”…Of course, the survey includes boyfriends as well…The real title for the survey is ” moments when people realise as they have a dog they don’t need a partner.” and was made by Goo Ranking

Demographics

Between the 18th and 21st of December 2009 1,077 members of the goo Research monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 51.0% of the sample were female, 8.7% in their teens, 15.3% in their twenties, 27.0% in their thirties, 27.8% in their forties, 11.9% in their fifties, and 9.3% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.
