I had to speak in front of members as a topic master asked me "If you were Prince Naruhito...What would you like to speak to people?"
I didn't have enough time to think about what to speak. I began to speak without good idea about this topic.
” I'm very sorry that many people are worring about Masako because of my words about Masako. I only wanted Masako to be fine as before. Masako did her best but she had stress as many people wanted us to have a baby boy.I think human right is more important than having a baby boy. Masako should be respect as a woman no matter what kind of rules Japanese Royal family has. Before men used to think women should have a baby boy to have leave offspring.Our life changed a lot .So we have to chage our rules in modern world. Long long time ago there were some queens in Japan. I want you to understand our situation and hope Masako's fast recovery."

Yeah, gender shouldn't matter, right? Their baby girl is very very cute! I felt sorry when I heard about the news of Masako. If I were Prince Naruhito, I would say "I feel sorry to have married the woman I love. I should have married a baby bearing machine who can bring the royal family as many baby boys as posssible so that Masako can live as happyily as she was before. Gomen nasai." (6月20日21時50分)

Hmmm... if I were Prince Naruhito, I would go like:
"I would like all of you people to ask the Japanese government to change the laws that restrict our human rights. My wife is a victim of the old and out-of-date rules and laws that keep us from doing whatever we would like to. Please change the laws!" How about that? Not so interesting...
BTW, I used to be a Toastmaster member and have CTM certification. I would like to resume my membership at a nearby club if I have a chance. (I tried a few years back but dropped out of the club I was planning to join...) I am not sure if I can resume working on my ATM... (6月21日12時41分)

This is my first time to learn about "Toastmasters club". I think the method which they have would offer you a good opportunity to learn!
The story of Princess Masako reminds me of the word "confinement". Since our royal family is regarded as the national symbol, I assert that the concept of its family planning can be modified, too. Guess how many women have annoyed by infertility today! (6月21日14時43分)
