Marriage can be challenging for disabled women in Japan. They often face pressure from their parents and society. Social events, like matchmaking meetings, usually do not meet their needs; they often focus more on what disabled men need. These events can make women feel powerless and reinforce old-fashioned gender roles. Women are expected to take on caregiving roles, even when they have their own disabilities. They also face resistance from their families and societal biases, which can affect their personal choices.
