Actually, both are true. The UN pressured China to legalize prostitution because it's already so rampant, they want the 'sex workers' to be able to organize and collect state benefits. And they released a study on Belarus suggesting that, among other things, the country scale back (not necessarily cancel) its observation of Mother's Day because there is 'too much focus on motherhood as the main societally accepted lifestyle choice for women,' or some crap like that. I don't remember the exact quote, but I'll bet you can find it here at FR.
