That wasn't very evident, was it?
You didn't mention my name, you quoted Fbone, and then it was me you was responding to? And you "read" Copenhagen? Perhaps, but not under Fbone's information.
To make a switch mid-paragraph to another person is really bad communication. Unless of course, you actually did think he was from Copenhagen.
Another gripe is the Copenhagen/Denmark thing. The reason I pointed it out is that it seems odd to mention Copenhagen and not the country. Just like I wouldn't write "The bible bashers of New York are a detriment to the separation of church and state in the US", when the reality is that it's a matter of the entire country, especially in our little corner of the earth (our country as a whole has just under 6 million citizens).

I met a lovely Danish girl in college. I didn't ask her about her sex education classes or how many sex movies she saw so I was asking if its typical for Danish boys and girls to be exposed to sex earlier.

Surely you must realise I have difficulties responding to this, because I don't know if you mean actual sex, or pictures/literature/films about sex. And since it can be the latter, AND the fact that you consider 9 1/2 weeks to have
explicit sex in it, it seems that almost any suggestion of sex goes for "explicit sex". Hence, I don't know what to answer you in this regard. If "exposure to sex" entails watching a thing like 9 1/2 weeks, or a catalogue from an lingerie shop, well, they might be.

I don't know how your system of sex education and your typical attitude towards sex works for your country. I guess most Danes are happy with it.

Yup, we believe in education.
Quote:
I gave an opinion that children shouldn't watch sexual movies and you became upset.

I disagreed strongly. It takes more than that to upset me.
I disagreed because you seemed to imply that since we don't have such bible bshing moral groups dictating what can or cannot be said, of course our kids must have sex (or being "exposed to sex") earlier.
This put into the context of you claiming that 9 1/2 weeks have "explicit sex" in it, gives me a pretty good incling of your position.
Quote:
I also said that it shouldn't be illegal for people to show their children sexual movies. Do you have a problem with people having a different opinion on this?

No, I have a problem with people's arguments, when it begins on a false premise, then adds to the false premise by making an assumption, and then rhetorically "asks a question", that is in reality a conclusion to the strawman.
