    Default Denmark launches children's TV show about man with giant penis

    This is how screwed we are.

    Quote Denmark launches children's TV show about man with giant penis

    John Dillermand has an extraordinary penis. So extraordinary, in fact, that it can perform rescue operations, etch murals, hoist a flag and even steal ice-cream from children.

    The Danish equivalent of the BBC, DR, has a new animated series aimed at four- to eight-year-olds about John Dillermand, the man with the world’s longest penis who overcomes hardships and challenges with his record-breaking genitals.

    Unsurprisingly, the series has provoked debate about what good children’s television should – and should not – contain.

    Since premiering on Saturday, opponents have condemned the idea of a man who cannot control his penis. “Is this really the message we want to send to children while we are in the middle of a huge #MeToo wave?” wrote the Danish author Anne Lise Marstrand-Jørgensen.

    The show comes just months after the TV presenter Sofie Linde kickstarted Denmark’s #MeToo movement.

    Christian Groes, an associate professor and gender researcher at Roskilde University, said he believed the programme’s celebration of the power of male genitalia could only set equality back. “It’s perpetuating the standard idea of a patriarchal society and normalising ‘locker room culture’ … that’s been used to excuse a lot of bad behaviour from men. It’s meant to be funny – so it’s seen as harmless. But it’s not. And we’re teaching this to our kids.”

    Society is totally collapsing. These are the signs of the end of a civilization. Perversity and loss of morals. O yeah, and ‘conservative’ people are the ones who are dangerous.... what a joke!

    When I first read this post I thought it was a joke. After clicking the link I am just speechless.

    Yes, the joke is on us and our children, and unfortunately it's not very funny.

    I was going to post about how this is wrong on so many different levels but it just makes me feel like crap even thinking about it!

    Although the Danes have a very specific sense of humor, I do not think this show backs that up.

    So... For the ones on here with a sense of Humor, just couldn't resist.

    On TV, in general, only debauchery and bloody militants show how good it used to be in the USSR, I remember my childhood and cartoons were interesting for children and fairy tales were filmed and Soviet films were interesting, but now all this is not and will not be.

    Any talk of genitalia or depiction of same to four year olds is abuse. Simple as that.
