Cultural Engineering
1. Aggressive Pro-Natal Propaganda
Normalize โthe large familyโ as a patriotic ideal
Celebrities and influencers model motherhood and fatherhood
Schools promote family life over careerism
2. Revive Traditional Gender Roles
Encourage single-income households
Promote homemaking as a noble full-time role
3. Stigmatize Childlessness or Delayed Marriage
Tax unmarried women over 30
Celebrate large families in media, exclude DINK lifestyles from public campaigns
Morally Dubious Methods (For Extreme Fertility)
These methods are ethically indefensible in liberal democracies but historically proven effective in increasing fertility.
4. Ban or Severely Restrict Contraception and Abortion
As Romania did under Ceauศescu in the 1960s
Birthrate surged
5. Mandatory Marriage and Birth Quotas
Legal requirement for women to marry and bear children by a certain age
6. Forced or Incentivized Early Motherhood
Marry girls at 14โ16, ban higher education for women after marriage
Normalize 6โ10 births per woman
7. Eugenic Reproduction Programs
Encourage reproduction
Nazi Germanyโs Lebensborn is a historical case
8. Artificial Reproductive Systems
State-run surrogacy farms or artificial wombs to increase birth volume beyond natural limits
Not yet feasible, but part of long-term maximization scenarios
Final Consideration: Whatโs the Theoretical Max?
Biological max for a woman: ~15โ20 children with early and continuous reproduction.
To reach national TFRs of 4โ6, you need massive numbers of women bearing 6+ children.
This requires:
Early marriage (~14)
Child every ~2 years
Suppression of contraception, higher education, and full-time careers
Conclusion:
If your only goal is maximum fertility, hereโs the most efficient combined formula:
Early marriage + full-time motherhood + banned abortion/contraception + strong cultural pressure = Ultra-high fertility society
