This problem isn’t easy for sociological analysis because in modern Western and Russian society it has overly ideological character. Increased activity of various kinds of nationalist and “patriotic” formations, and also killing of LGBT activists evidence about this fact. We tried to focus on the sociological analysis of this problem. The paper thereby is more associated with demography and demographic policy than with medicine or psychology. Special attention is paid to the issue of adoption of children by same-sex couples.
