Staying in a seaside hotel with a girl and not making a move? That's like ordering a burger and throwing away the patty. But, there are actually some people who don't like meat, and I think there is a grain of truth in the story too, just vastly exaggerated. The main cause of the decline in the marriage and birth rate is most likely the economy, imo.

Funny the title is a parody of a British play from the 70's when UK's economy was in a quagmire. I was in the UK in the early 90's, also an economic low time, and I have been secretly thinking that the stifled atmosphere Japan has right now is similar to the one I saw in the UK back then.
