so we had a discussion in class today, and i heard that denmark was feminist country. not like a faggot or anything, but more like a maternal or caring country. what's your thoughts on this?

I am not quite sure what you mean by "feminist country"?! But it is a sort of caring country.. We have a lot of social security
- free edducation (plus money for studying so you do not have to work while you study),
- free healthcare (but not free dentrestry),
- job guaranty to those who cannot find a job (and thus secure income),
- a slightly secured disability claims (although, I have heard that it is not enough)
-the list goes on like that.. besides that Denmark is one of the highest paying countries in the world, but we also pay around 42%-60% in taxes, not including 25% extra tax that goes on all things that we buy.. But it still amounts to more than most countries...

But it is a nice country to live in, if you get rid of the majority of people here... most have just become - well, "lesser" men and women to put it nicely :upset:

what exactly what i was asking, is denmark a caring country.

then I suppose the short answer is "yes".... or at least we would like to percive ourselves as caring... Although our politics are getting more and more anti-anything-not-european, and our people are getting further away from the yay-hippy-free-sex-and-room-for-all which we where once..
