The October Revolution evolution brough liberation to workers, agriculture proletariat and also woman in USSR. Woman were no longer a property of husband, and they could pursuit any career, like scientist, engineer, soldier or even a cosmonaut. Their voice finally could be heard publicly.

It seems that the years after the October Revolution were also the time of sexual liberation, e.g. like women could have more partners without social stigma, characteristic to patriarchal societies. Conservatives describe this as moral decandency, they write that the Bolsheviks allowed “sadism and masochism” and all kind of sexual perversion. Of course, these conservative fucks do not admit that this “sadism and masochism” cases were most probably consensual sexual practices.

Then, I heard, when Stalin took power, the sexual liberty was tamed. The conservative fucks write something like “Stalin was a monster, but at least he put in order the sexual and moral decandency”. And it looks that the sex matters were quite a tabu during Stalin times. Maybe because there was the Great War and a maximal mobilization and discipline were needed. But after Stalin, things seems similar. I read a story of some Polish man, who met some ladies from USSR, probably in 80s. He said that they were more sexualy prudent than people rised in (ultra-?)catholic Poland (even if at that time there was People’s Republic of Poland, this country is cursed by very strong catholic mind-worm). I know that USSR had many based gay posters, but I do not see evidence of any sexual playfulnes in practice since Stalin. To put it shortly, USSR since Stalin looks as conservative in matters of customs and sex.

Is a grain of truth in the above or I get it wrong?

      Actually Stalin did this so he could eat all the pussy in Russia, so unfortunately it’s true.

      The prefrontal cortex isn’t fully developed until around the age of 25. Militaries recruit 17 year olds to enlist them as soon as they turn 18. It’s at this age that the mind is most susceptible to indoctrination.

        Militaries enlist child soldiers in some places.

        People are inundated with propaganda at any age. How could they not be when literally any work that has a point is propaganda?
