I know that the headline is a bit hard on my subject. Firstly, because this of course is a way of getting as many readers as possible. It is however also pretty much how I feel about the country I am living in at the moment. The case is, that I am a Dane who has been living in the UK for more than ten years. Last year, my family and I got the opportunity to move back to my dear little father-land, Denmark. The beautiful little spot on the map, with the little Mermaid, Hans Christian Andersen and all the other fairy tales. What I forgot about, was the latest addition to what Denmark has become famous for: The Danish Cartoons. After ten years in the UK, is has been rather sad to realize, that those cartoons were more than an editorial mistake on a right wing newspaper. From my point of view, I think the Danes over the years have become so xenophobic and paranoid, in their fight to protect their tribe of blond welfare society, that they can do whatever they like when it comes to avoiding foreigners. This blog is therefore not going to be about the Danish Cartoons ... I am a bit fed up by them, to be honest. What I would like to tell you all about, is how I experience my little country, and the ways in which the Danes are trying to keep it completely Danish. Don't get me wrong: I love my country. I think the Danes - after all, I am one of them myself! - have so many good qualities, and I do have a lot of fantastic Danish friends ... but I think the xenophobia has become an ingrained habit in the population, and therefore more or less 'acceptable behaviour'.
