Japan gets its first female prime minister, ending three&month political vacuum

Ultraconservative San-eye Taka-ichi is among Japanese politicians who have stonewalled measures for women’s advancement. She supports the imperial family’s male-only succession and opposes same-sex marriage and allowing separate surnames for married couples.
