... in the Ulyanovsk region of Russia. It's a measure to try to curb the population spiral. This just struck me as interesting. It's a novel idea. The euphemisms they use are rather amusing too.

This is the town that's trying to boost it's population, right? I heard about this in a story somewhere. Sounds like a good idea. Not to mention a great deal of fun.

Something struck me as odd about this thread, but it took me like 5 mins before I could stick my finger on it... it can't be "National" Sex Day if it's only one region or town, can it? Still a funny link, nonetheless.

Would it mean we are all compelled to have sex on the same day?

 

Would that mean another national holiday?

 

Can I bring a sicknote?

 

I might prefer to go fishing instead.

In the Russian federal system regions are autonomous. You could call them 'nations.' It's also on the same day as a national holiday, so it has that national proportion. In other words: "shush".

Now that's not fornication.
