Russians who promote 'child-free movement' could soon face hefty fine
NBC news ^ | 28 Sept 2024 | Yuliya Talmazan

Lawmakers have proposed a ban on “propaganda of conscious refusal to bear children,” Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the lower house of parliament and an ally of President Vladimir Putin, said in a post on Telegram on Tuesday.

The bill would tackle what Volodin said was the promotion of the “ideology of childlessness” and the “childfree movement” on the internet, in the media, in movies and even in advertisements, citing what he said where frequent online displays of “disrespect for motherhood and fatherhood, aggression toward pregnant women and children, and members of large families.”

It will come with heavy fines, he said, of up to $4,300 for individuals and more than $53,000 for legal entities. “A close-knit and large family is the basis of a strong state,” Volodin added.

“A woman’s purpose is to procreate — this is an absolutely unique natural gift,” Putin said in March. Earlier this month, he said the government was creating conditions for women to achieve professional success while remaining “the real soul of a large family.” Combining the two is no easy task, the Russian leader said, “but our women know how to do it and remain beautiful, gentle and charming under such stress.”

Childless cat woman, and fatherless children, are the destruction of America

Men and women should not be equal before the law…women should not be entitled to any government student loans. I am actually opposed to all government student loans but that is besides the point. We need women getting married sooner and having more babies. Almost every professional and post secondary academic activity done by women is a distraction from their primary function.

Well, if men provided a world in which people would want to have children, that would help.

It doesn’t seem to me that they have done very well in that area yet.

But go ahead. Blame the women. Continue the time honored custom of blame shifting started by Adam. I guess it’s what comes naturally to men based on how long and how often they’ve been doing it.

Such a good little tyrant in the making.

Should they wear headscarves and be required to have male relative escorts when leaving the house, too?

Not for the same reasons as China, Russia has a population growth problem (too low).

I can see why Putin wants this law but he may be better served by giving everybody Wednesdays off.

“women should not be entitled to any government student loans.”

Women are now the majority of college students.

If there were no quality women, the life of men would be much worse.

My father, a manager and businessowner, considered the ability to judge people to be the most important skill.

you have just stated that university is the key to creating quality women…you have lost the plot…they tried this in South Korea and they have a 0.7 TFR

I think you and your father need to rethink the definition of a quality woman

If I am correct, thus far abortion has been no problem for women in Russia. The commies were all for it. What seems to have changed is that women need to have babies because Russia needs a guaranteed pipeline of males for cannon fodder. What to do, what to do.

Evasion duly noted.

My comment wasn’t about the subsidies and I have no doubt you knew that quite well.

lol.. no. The whole men need to walk away from corporate slavery . En mass. The equal pay just took the man’s pay and cut it in half requiring two jobs to survive. That alone would fix x the problem.
Well maybe not entirely since Trump and the dems are wanting increased immigration. He is serious about reducing lacing well paid Americans because AI. Which makes little sense to me. But hey your god has spoken.
