This is gonna work great....right------Denmark may make refugees take sex-ed courses with focus on consent

Denmark may make refugees take sex-ed courses with focus on consent | New York Post:
"Refugees seeking asylum in Denmark may soon be required to take mandatory courses in sex education.
The initiative gained steam last weekend, after three Eritrean men were arrested for allegedly raping a 25-year-old Eritrean woman in Hjørring, Metroexpress reported.
Five other asylum seekers were charged with rape there last year, the site noted.
Copenhagen’s parliament expected to support of the mandatory courses in what constitutes sexual consent, and all parties across the board are in favor of the effort to help integrate foreigners into Danish society.
Similar five-hour classes were introduced in Norway in 2011, with a focus on teaching asylum seekers and refugees that, “a kiss is not a yes to sex.”
The Norwegian program was launched following a series of sexual crimes committed by refugees near one of the asylum centers, The Local reported.
Linda Hagen – who runs 34 asylum centers in Norway – explained how men from conservative countries frequently misinterpret the more open Scandinavian attitude towards sex.
“It’s difficult if you come from a country where women never go out,” she said. “When you see a girl with a short skirt dancing at a party late in the evening, what kind of message will it give you?”
“It’s important to tell them that this kind of behavior or clothing doesn’t mean that it’s allowed for you to go the whole way. If a girl says ‘no’, it’s a ‘no.’”
Peter Skaarup, Danish People’s Party Spokesman, believes the same principals should be taught in Denmark.
“If they’ve done something in Norway that works, we should just copy it,” he told Metroexpress."
