Denmark: Come for the Fjords, Stay for the Moral Chaos

[giza]

It is a little known fact that Denmark was the first country in the world to legalize pornographic movies. This was in 1969. Then, 20 years later in 1989, Denmark became the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage. Not "domestic partnerships", but full-blown gay marriage, with all the benefits from derived from such.

Now, it's 2008, and things have degenerated into what can best be described as "moral chaos". This video documents that:

So anyway, I guess the moral of the story here is that if you watch (or sell) porn, you should thank a Dane.

I can't say much on what things are actually like in the country... when I was over there, it was in a small town in the middle of winter. I wish I coulda seen what things were like in say, Copenhagen.

However, some of the Danish stuff I've seen online is downright crazy. Two examples that come to mind are the Wulffmorgenthaler comic strip (http://wulffmorgenthaler.com/) and Dolph the Fascist Hippo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolph) (an offshoot of the comic strip).

Be warned that both of those links lead to some highly offensive material.

Hah, maybe they hide this stuff from the tourists, and only let us see the pipe-smoking old men and pickled herring kolde bord.

Seriously, I can't think of a more quiet country. I'm amazed they produce this stuff.

I'm not surprised!

Best Example! The USA always try to pass as proper and puritan.

They remove sex ed from schools and try to teach their kids abstinence..

Yet they're the biggest porn producers and consumers..
