Russian politicians are sending controversial messages to women in their country. A few days ago Tamara Pletnyova, in charge of the parliamentary commission for family and women in Russia, issued a statement in which she asked women not to have sex with foreigners of another race , as they could end up as single mothers with children of race mixed, something that, he said, is undesirable because it complicates life. The policy spoke in response to the so-called "children of the Olympics", a wave of pregnancies that occurred in Moscow in 1980, when there was not much access to contraceptives. As is evident, the meeting of cultures always has a component of sexual attraction.
The controversial comment has to do with its allusion to mix the race. Pletnyova said that being of mixed race makes the life of the child difficult, because it increases the possibility that it is abandoned and that the mother is single. It is necessary to clarify that Pletnyova suggested that children of mixed race suffer discrimination by the conditions of the society, did not say that said children are inferior; Either way, your comments are problematic. Russia is looking to clean up the image it has, to be a discriminatory and intolerant country.
A day later, Minister Mikhail Degtyarev replied by encouraging Russian women to welcome foreigners with open arms and make many babies in the World Cup. "The more love stories we have connected to the World Cup, the more people from different countries fall in love and the more children are born, the better", said the minister in a much more positive comment, presumably with the intention of counteracting the criticisms Pletnyova's comments had been won. For his part, Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: "As far as Russian women are concerned, they will make their own decision, they are the best women in the world."
This issue of Russian women and foreigners begins to become an alternative narrative to football, as there will be a kind of invasion, especially of men, to an immense country that has the reputation of having the most beautiful women in the world. The fantasy that the National Team wins, joins another fantasy. A few weeks ago, it was announced that the Argentine Football Federation included in its World Cup guide a section on how to seduce Russian women.
