German politicians tell men to have more sex
Reuters/MSNBC ^ | 6/25/04

..Politicians are urging German men to have more sex to boost birth rates or risk being labeled “limp” abroad, a newspaper reported on Friday.

Johannes Singhammer, a member of parliament and father of six, said Germany’s aging population needed to produce more offspring to sustain its overstretched pensions system.

“Children are our future,” Singhammer told Germany’s Bild newspaper. “Germans need to work more on that again in bed. Things mustn’t get to the stage where German men are scoffed at abroad for being limp.”

Germany will have the world’s oldest population by 2035, according to a report in Germany’s Der Spiegel weekly

These Euro-politicians need to grasp the situation firmly in their hands and thrust forth repeatedly until resolution of the situation ecstatically springs forth.

(Pregnant pause....)

Which is it, abortion on demand, or propagation of the human species? Make up your mind Germany. Apparently, in China, there are more men than women (according to a MSNBC story) and they forsee great problems in the future. So sad!

End the Socialism. Socialism isn't a good justification for having more kids --- bringing kids into the world just to make them pay for the government programs previous generations put into place?

I'm sure they're having plenty of sex. They are just not reproducing.

Yes --- and maybe the summer will be hot again and the elderly won't have kids or a government who would buy them a fan and they'll go the way the French elderly went last summer.

They can have all the sex they want, but it won't necessarily result in more little Germans. Reminds me of an old joke: A travelling salesman was working overtime and needed a place to spend the night, so he knocked on a farmhouse door and asked if the farmer had an extra bed. "Well," said the farmer, "you can sleep with my daughter, but I don't want no horsin' around, or I'll have to shoot ya." The guy gets into bed with the daughter, who happens to be especially attractive, and before long things have reached the point of no return. Later, the daughter gets out of bed and tells her Pa what happened. Next morning the salesman gets dressed and comes downstairs, where he's immediately waylaid by the farmer, holding a shotgun.

"I hear you boinked my daughter last night!" he cried. "What are ya gonna call the baby?"

"If he gets out of this," replied the unflappable salesman, holding up a condom, "I'll call him Houdini!"

One thing not discussed is the high incidence of sterility caused by casual sex.

Women get scarred Fallopian tubes as a common result of infections (often low grade and sub-clinical) due to the slutty behavior so common in Europe (and the US) these days. Abortion also commonly produces these same gynecological infections. Promiscuity encouraged and indoctrinated by the cesspool of a mainstream media I might add.

Inevitable Result: ectopic pregnancies, miscarraiges, complete sterility, and declining birthrates.

Maybe they should be recommending the have more sex with their wives.

Shutting down the abortion mills would also help.

Europeans are not getting married. They are "living together" and in non-marital "civil relationships." Just like the US in 10 years.

Supposedly, Germany led the way in the current "metrosexual" phenomenon. German men have become more hedonistic, narcissistic and sybaritic or weaker, more sensitive and laid back. You can see this in France as well, but the striking thing is with the women. German women have grown more businesslike, utilitarian and straightforward, and given up interest in traditionally "feminine" preoccupations like romance, clothing, hair and make-up, Kinder, Küche, und Kirche (children, kitchen, and church) to a far greater degree than in other countries.

Judging by superficial appearances, it seems like if you heard that a German got a facial and waxing, that German would be more likely to be a man than a woman (see the movies of Doris Dörrie for confirmation). Some say that the polarity of sex has been reversed, others that when women become more completely self-sufficient and adequate unto themselves, men take on an effete "drone" role, which simply encourages the women to continue on their own course.

Europeans have fewer frontiers to pioneer and obstacles to overcome than people in other countries, so it's natural that men have retreated into hedonistic consumerism or the cultivation of emotional sensitivity. Being the father of a family doesn't seem to be very highly regarded or respected a position. Women find that they can be more independent and like it, and this suits committment-phobic men just fine. And when the state seems to provide the security that the family once did, it's all the less reason to procreate.

European unity, after centuries of wars and conflicts, is quite an achievement, but somehow the accomplishment doesn't seem as inspiring as it once did. Unification looks more like the last sigh of an expiring civilization than a springboard to a creative renaissance.

According to my sister who visited Thailand and Vietnam, she observed the German men having no problems with limpness abroad by any means.
