I give the word to my husband Thomas Finn👇🏽(and yes the orgasm gap is actually a ‘feminist thing’ here in Denmark - WTF).
Sat here working on a new design for The Word this afternoon while enjoying some good music and Krisztina lounging in the sun.
It was one of those designs where the word GOD features pretty centrally.
And then it suddenly hit me again. The orgasm gap.
Yes I know it seems like a strange place for the brain to go. But well - you know how I work by now… “Oh God… Oh God… Oh God…” …so yes. You probably get the connection. 🤷
Anyway.
After all those years with the podcast Ild i Hjertet - where we practically had to excavate our way to something resembling a minor PhD in men, women, relationships, polarity, longing, communication, conflicts and all the other things modern humans walk around trying to make sense of - it is probably time for the annual status report.
And since we are now approaching 20 years together… …and things have honestly only gotten worse with age……I think it is important to shine a light on the issue.
The situation here as we enter our 52nd year is by now so lopsided that I am starting to feel like somewhere between a small to medium-sized European country trying to keep up with full Chinese industrial production.
I simply do not stand a chance.
What exactly is expected of me here? Is there no public authority one can contact? No support scheme? No emergency package? No Council Lady who can look at the case and say - “Yes Thomas… this is clearly a case of serious structural imbalance.”
Maybe someone could call Mette Frederiksen and ask if a formal Orgasm Check could be considered ahead of the next election campaign?
Just temporarily of course.
A small financial subsidy for men fighting heroically on the home front with no realistic chance of ever closing the gap.
Because this CANNOT be right……that I should live with this growing sexual inequality year after year without any support from the state.
We talk constantly about equality in this country. EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO AN EQUAL NUMBER OF ORGASMS!!!🤓🤷
Have a great weekend friends. Enjoy the sunshine while it is here. ☀️ Grill and eat a steak. 🥩🥗🍺
And make an extra one for someone you know who is in a care home - and smuggle it in to them. They are only allowed root vegetable mash, legumes and potatoes and bran crackers with scraped Philadelphia LIGHT and ONE cup of squash per day. Climate you know. 🥴
