Thank heavens I don’t live in the god old US of A. When the alarm goes I stumble out of bed. I always sleep in the nude. I go for the kitchen and the percolator. When started I head for the loo and do what I need to do. After that I return to the kitchen and get a cup of coffee and light a cigarette. Switch on the telly and slowly start to wake up for real. After this I head for the shower, gets a shave and proceed to get dressed. If someone peeped through my windows and then phoned the cops, they would tell the idiot where to get lost, as I am perfectly entitled to do that in my own home. An example on the laws for nudity comes from our beaches. Unless signposted otherwise all beaches is considered clothes optional. About 1 % of the shoreline in Denmark carries these signposts. Years ago the idea of streaking started in USA. One major daily newspaper decided to try it out in Copenhagen. They hired a young very attractive couple to run naked in the main streets. Obviously had photographers posted to capture the moment. Well after 20 minutes no copper showed up and it was February and sub zero temperatures the journalist in charge decided to get things rolling and phoned the cops and ask what they intended doing about it. The officer in charge gave the following answer: It is not a police matter if some duff heads want to catch a cold!! Well it put an end to that idea. Just wasn’t fun when nobody reacted. On the island of Laesoe it was pretty normal with nude swimming and so forth. In the end the joke became a little too much in as far as the baker for hygienic reason posted a sign “No entry to shop unless dressed in minimum bathing suit”. Nudity in a natural manner never harms the kids. It is the adults reaction to it which harms the kids. If it did, Denmark would have many times the number of traumatized kids than the USA. According to what I know, the case is actually the opposite. Besides this entire story I can only say to. In a country which has severe gang, drug and violence problems, don’t the cops have more pressing problems than something like this? I also remember the French prime minister being handed an old model photo of his wife naked. He took it and looked carefully at it for a while. Then he politely handed it back to the journalist and said: That is nice. Can you send me some copies. LOL. So much for that scandal. But substitute Obama for Sarkozy and it would have been the scandal of the year. I am a great admirer of USA in many regards, but on certain points you guys makes me either shake my head in disbelief or laugh so the tears rolls down my cheeks. Sometimes I believe that the mantra is “We must have standard and that is god, double standards is then double as god”.
