  • Having kids can be extremely fulfilling, doesn’t increase human suffering at all. Having kids subjectively improved my life and the lives of many people adjacent to me, e.g. the lives of my family members and friends and my kids’ friends.

    I don’t understand how the Internet is so anti kids, it’s pretty baffling.




  • It’s not even that strict. In Denmark you have to have been a resident continually for 9 years, with no long periods of travel abroad, before you can even apply for citizenship, as well as a ‘permanent residence’ permit.

    You also have to have been employed continually for 3½ of the previous 4 years, have a clean criminal record, as well as pass several Danish exams and a citizenship test where you must demonstrate knowledge of Danish society, culture, history and so on.

    After that, you have to participate in a ceremony where you shake hands with the mayor or alderman of your municipality, sign a declaration where you swear to comply with the Constiturion, respect Danish values and laws, and support democracy.

    THEN your name is added to a formal law which must be passed by the parliament - as Danish citizenship is awarded by law.
