The Danes know what’s important.
COPENHAGEN – Sales of sex toys in Denmark have more than doubled after Danes were told to stay at home to limit the spread of the coronavirus, according to the country’s biggest retailer of the merchandise.
“It makes me happy that we are doing something good during this difficult time when people feel vulnerable,” said Mathilde Mackowski, co-owner of Sinful, the biggest sex toy seller in the Nordics.
Gotta have your priorities in order and do what’s important.
In the first week of April, sales at Sinful rose 110 percent in Denmark, where it estimates it commands three-quarters of the total market.
The country’s biggest sex toy review website Eroti.dk said traffic has more than tripled during the lockdown compared with the same period last year.
At least some companies are doing well during the Moo Goo Gai Panic.
In particular demand for sex games and toys for couples has spiked. Sinful said sales of a 10-day love challenge for couples rose more than four-fold since mid-March compared with the same period before the lockdown.
“I think it’s only natural that when we spend more time together we want to have a little extra fun,” said Mackowski.
“We take better care of each other in this difficult time and that also reflects on our sex lives,” she said.
In nine months we’re gonna have a baby boom that will prolly exceed the number of people who died during this pandemic.
Way to go Denmark!
We English speakers have a lot to be thankful for from the Danes. When they were raping and pillaging England, many of them wound up settling there. The Danes raped and pillaged the English language and got rid of gender. Unlike most European languages we don’t have to worry about our articles and adjectives having to agree with the genders of our nouns. None of the Die, das, le, la, les, las, los bullshit. All that is replaced in English with “the”. “The” is both singular and plural. Thank you Danes!
Enjoy your sex toys!
I am old enough to remember when Denmark was the only country which allowed printed pornography. Nowadays, if that FedEx package starts writhing and moaning, it ain’t the Energizer Bunny, it’s Plastic Patsy with the weapons-grade 44Hes.

You can learn a lot hanging out here.
So true! Morning coffee and GOC. Nothing better. Then on to Surber and Limbaugh. I must admit Saturday morning is one of my favorites.
I can support Quiller’s post from April 14.
I made me the number one target in this state.

Fuck you “Half” Whitmer! Catch me if you can.
Yeah, right, uh huh, for sure…blame ME, hey?

Most recently she’s decided to (as I flatly predicted) share the blame with other goobernators in this region, and set a common date to release-the-inmates-who-aren’t-really-inmates-because-the-real-inmates-all-got-released….
Ah…there’s nothing surprising about Democrats wanting to free criminals.
Professional courtesy.
Maybe the Vikings were very pragmatic!
I was sent to one of those schools where they tried to teach us foreign languages. Latin numbers were a mystery. Image trying to land a Man on the Moon if you had to do the calculations with latin arithmetic.
I once saw a Roman numeral division problem of three digits divided by two digits that took up two sheets of 8×10 paper.
Thank you Clyde. Now I feel less bad about failing Latin!
The Scandies also introduced many th,,, words such as this, that, these those, etc. These words also have no gender which makes writing and speaking a lot easier. If English were only more phonetic, but it turns out the language is a hodgepodge of many languages without a simple logic as its basis!
From what I’ve seen of parents stuck home with kids any children born nine months from now will be first children.
Or, with the sales of sex toys, likely to be AA sized batteries. If the ladies boyfriend is nicknamed “Buzz” then what else would you expect?
