Be more like Europe, they said. Europe is so much more worldly and sophisticated than America, they said.
Let’s see what’s going on in Europe, shall we? Here’s a look at Denmark:
New York Times World ~ To combat body shaking and promote body positivity, an award-winning Danish TV show presents five naked adults with less than perfect bodies to an audience of 11, 12 and 13 year olds, who get to ask the models questions.

Allllrighty then.
Aelfred The Great ~ Everyone’s rightly losing it over the content, so let me be the one to say “shaking” is quite the typo.
FYI, the Times meant to say “body shaming.” Though that doesn’t really make this story less disturbing.
Kassy Dillon ~ What the hell?
I did not and will not vote for him. Calm down. ~ What the fuck is happening?
Inez Stepman ~ What in the ever-loving hell is this?
Comfortably Smug ~ WTF IS WRONG WITH LIBS???
Well, libtards are diseased, deranged perverts who hate everyone, including themselves.
Luke Rudkowski ~ Are you f****** kidding me!!! WTF is wrong with people in the "entertainment" industry.
JERRY DUNLEAVY ~ WTF is wrong with you. WTF is wrong with the Danes. WTF is body shaking. WTF is with the lack of an Oxford comma.
That Goddamned Finkelstein Shit Kid ~ Well, that's fucked up.
Yes. Yes it is.
The Red-Headed Libertarian ~ "Promote body positivity by exposing yourself to children."
RBe ~ What? Of course they're not trying to normalize ped....
If the New York Times is attempting to normalize pedophilia — or at least the sexualization of children — we’re honestly not sure what they’d be doing differently.
From the article:
The program is now in its second season, and while perhaps a shock to non-Danes, it is highly popular in Denmark. Recently, however, a leading member of the right-wing Danish People’s Party, Peter Skaarup, said he found “Ultra Strips Down” to be “depraving our children.”
“It is far too early for children” to start with male and female genitalia, he told B.T., a Danish tabloid. At that age, he said, they “already have many things running around in their heads.”
“They have to learn it at the right time,” he added, saying this information should be presented by parents or schools “so that it is not delivered in this vulgar way, as the children’s channel does.”
The New York Times is very deliberately framing opposition to parading naked adults in front of children as a “right-wing” position.
So basically they’re taking the “Cuties” defense route. If that’s what they want to do, well, best of luck to them.
Ezra Levant ~ So, the sequel to Cuties.
Post Master General Prison Mitch ~ Netflix: “Man this ‘Cuties’ thing is starting to look bad. If only someone would do something even more outrageous.”
Denmark: “Hold my Carlsberg.”
The closest the New York Times comes to pointing out why a program like this might be problematic is … well, actually, they don’t really do that at all. The whole thing comes off like an explainer of how America can learn a lot about inclusiveness and body positivity from those forward-thinking Danes.
And that’s messed up.
Noah Pollak ~ I'm starting to feel like I need to keep the libs away from my kids.
Uh, Noah ... you should've been very worried about that years and years and years ago!
Jacob Airey ~ This is the real reason Europe is confused by the reaction to "Cuties." This type of perversion is another day ending in 'y' for them. "Cuties" is a symptom of the problems in Europe and America has got to reject it or we'll follow it.
Courtney Kirchoff ~ Why are some people so obsessed with showing children naked adult bodies? Can we just ... not?
Yes, please. Let’s not.
Harry Khachatrian ~ Maybe global nuclear war wouldn’t be so bad after all.
