Virtus:

Is this a parody, or is this a serious ad?

I was wondering the same thing. Either way the people that made that commercial at least have a sense of humor and don't seem to be taking it too seriously.

Quote:With a nosediving birth rate—in 2012, Danish women were having 1.73 births each—Denmark is searching for increasingly unorthodox methods to encourage a baby boom. The Scandinavian country is technically not behind the ad—travel company Spies Travels is—but Denmark isn’t exactly against the ad either.

Belated response to "Don't Bang Denmark"?

Theres's actually a current government founded campaign to advise young people to get children while studying: http://www.dr.dk/levnu/parforhold/ny-kam...du-laeser.

It's founded by the Copenhagen Municipality, and it's a social media and poster campaign i think.

On the 10th of october there is going to be a debate program called "Bang for Denmark". It's on the public service channel number one DR1: https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/debat/knald-for-danmark

In Denmark, infertilityy is acknowledged as a disease, and you can get free fertiity treatment. That's how my fat co-workers in the late 30's and start 40's get pregnant at least.

At least there is some awareness on this major problem.
