Johannes Singhammer, a member of parliament and father of six, said Germanyâs aging population needed to produce more offspring to sustain its overstretched pensions system.
âChildren are our future,â Singhammer told Germanyâs Bild newspaper. âGermans need to work more on that again in bed. Things mustnât get to the stage where German men are scoffed at abroad for being limp.â
His words were echoed by fellow conservative Armin Klein, who said Germans had become too selfish.
âWe need to have the courage to have sex and take the consequences,â said Klein, who has two children. âPeople concentrating on themselves, which has led to a life without children for many, has gone wrong.â
Germany will have the worldâs oldest population by 2035, according to a report in Germanyâs Der Spiegel weekly.
