Russia proposes for Ministry of Sex

Russia's Plan to Boost Birth Rate with a "Ministry of Sex"
Russia is exploring ways to increase its birth rate, which has been declining in recent years. One of the most unusual proposals is the creation of a "Ministry of Sex" to promote policies that encourage more births. This idea is being considered by Nina Ostanina, a key ally of President Vladimir Putin, who chairs the Russian parliament’s committee on Family Protection.
Here are some of the key proposals that have been suggested to help boost Russia's birth rate:
1. Turning Off the Internet and Lights: A proposal has been made to turn off the internet and lights between 10 PM and 2 AM to encourage couples to spend more time together and become more intimate.
2. Financial Incentives for Mothers: The government is considering paying stay-at-home mothers who raise children and manage housework. This could also count toward their pension benefits.
3. Paying for First Dates: One suggestion is that the government pays people up to 5,000 roubles (around ₹4,395) for their first dates to encourage more marriages and relationships.
4. Wedding Night Payments: There is also a proposal to help newlywed couples by paying for their wedding night at a hotel, up to 26,300 roubles (₹23,122), to promote pregnancies.
In certain regions of Russia, women who have children may receive financial rewards. For example, in Khabarovsk, women between the ages of 18 and 23 could receive up to £900 (roughly ₹97,311) for having a child, and in Chelyabinsk, the amount for a firstborn could be as high as £8,500 (₹9,19,052).
Some local officials have even suggested that workers use their coffee and lunch breaks at work to "procreate" and increase the birth rate. In Moscow, public sector female employees have been asked to fill out surveys about their sex lives and menstruation. Those who refuse are being sent for medical check-ups.
These bold ideas are part of Russia’s effort to address the demographic decline, which has been worsened by the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
