How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.

In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

We don’t instantly tie it with sex when a father and his very young daughter are taking a bath together.

Why did my ex of 2 years move on so fast after he left me? Why does he act so cold towards me, and as if I don't exist?

This is a very vague question. But considering the asker’s comment on Mr. Nakajima’s answer, your interest seems to be in sex-related matters (I don’t think it’s the only indicator of conservative/ progressive, though).
