Nerds' Birthday

A few days ago, I found an interesting theory on the Internet.

That is "Nerds tend to be born in the winter."

In Japan, school begins on April 1st.

Therefore, if someone is born in the winter such as February or March, there will be a difference of about 10 months (maximum almost 1 year) with those who are born in April or May despite being in the same grade.

Since the difference is huge for children, they could become to dislike sports and exercise, then become nerds.

Although this theory is not statistically supported, there is another interesting fact; "Japanese professional athletes tend to be born in April - June."
オタクの誕生日

先日、インターネット上で面白い説を見ました。

それは「オタクは冬生まれが多い」というものです。

日本では、4月1日、すなわち春から学校が始まります。

このため、2〜3月などの冬に生まれると、同学年の4〜5月生まれの人とは10ヶ月ほど(最大で約1年)の差が生じます。

幼少期にとってこの差は大きく、スポーツや運動が嫌いになり、オタクになるということです。

この説の裏付けはなされていませんが、興味深い事実として、日本のプロスポーツ選手は4〜6月生まれが多いそうです。
