A Russian magazine editor claims his publisher demanded he censor a book that mentions homosexuality in animals because it violates the country’s “LGBT propaganda” law.
Viktor Kovylin, editor of the scientific journal Batrachospermum, wrote on Telegram that his publisher told him the descriptions of same-sex behavior in a book on animal sexual behavior were against the law because they did not express “disgust or criticism” for the acts.
“Apparently, neutral scientific descriptions of homosexual behavior, without disgust or criticism, now fall under the category of propaganda for non-traditional relationships!” Kovylin wrote on Telegram, according to a translation.
OG fascism aimed that everyone participate in building the Nation. Women’s role is supposed to be producing children, i.e., future soldiers and workers.
That’s the same idea than Christianity. Homosexuality and contraception do not lead to babies, so they are vilified.
Fun fact, the Hebrews had a belief about gametes that was almost exactly backwards: they believed that men had a limited amount of viable sperm they could produce in their lifetime, while women had no such limitation. This is why the Old Testament condemns male masturbation and gay sex (they waste potential children) but stays silent on the female equivalents.
