I did read and post a translation of the bill and it's comments on the homosexuality criminalization, I don't feel like searching for it but the big thing is they thought homosexuality was lowering birth rates when that was the topic of the day postwar, and it was even implied to be temporary along with other measures. Cuba is taking the correct approach now, if you want LGBT people to have kids, you need to support non traditional families.

I chalk it up to traditionalist and non scientific brain worms, they ended up walking back most of those changes once they actually measured them. The demographic crisis after ww2 can't be understated though, I recall reading a worst case scenario projection for it and they expected the Soviet Unions population to half

Reading about childcare in the Soviet Union sometimes seems like a dream, I'd give an arm and a leg to be able to have kids in an environment like what they were able to build.
