My knowledge on this topic is limited. My understanding is that the laws referred to do not ban homosexuality but rather ban propoganda aimed at or distributed to minors that promote alternative sexual lifestyles (other than the married procreative heterosexual norm). Russia has a real population decrease problem. I think that is the "rationale" behind these laws; plus Putin has, in my theory, been recognizing that Russia's Orthodox religious heritage can replace the Soviet myths that once held together the country.
If there is more to the laws (such as a ban on all gay "propoganda" or a ban on certain sexual practices or on assembly of effeminate males at places that serve alcohol (as FDR instituted in the US), I just don't have a resource to determine this--but please share here if y'all know).
