Apparently Denmark Has A Custom Of Anonymous Sex With Tourists

You know, we always thought that Southeast Asia and Jamaica were the hotspots for sex tourism, that is until we watched this video advertisement for Denmark. It's a brief bit that appears like an earnest new mother searching for the father of her child, someone with whom she had a random one-night-stand, and he happened to be a tourist.

Now she's got a baby (named August, aww) and it's all thanks to the Danish "custom" of hygge, or hooking up with random foreign strangers. Although Denmark wants to promote its nightlife in this way, we're not so happy about their encouragement of anonymous and unprotected sex, and it sounds like the rest of Denmark agrees with us, since the spot has been pulled thanks to a backlash. But of course, not until it had already gone viral and generated more buzz than the ad agency had ever hoped for.
