Swedish call for all-day porn
From a correspondent in Stockholm, Sweden
September 05, 2002
A Christian Democratic politician running for a seat in Sweden's parliament called for porn to be broadcast on television all day every Saturday in order to help boost the population and thereby the economy.
Teres Kirpikli, a municipal councillor in the southern town of Skoevde, said pornography was the best way to get couples to have more sex and procreate.
"I want erotica and porn on television every Saturday, all day. Then people would feel like having more sex. I think most people like porn, even though they don't want to admit it," she said in a statement.
"There is nothing wrong with a man and his wife or partner watching porn together," she added.
Kirpikli, a married mother of three, is running for a seat in parliament in Sweden's legislative elections, to be held on September 15.
But her proposal did not have the full backing of the Christian Democratic Party.
Ulla-Britt Hagstroem, head of the party's women's association, distanced herself from the idea and said she wanted to abolish pornography altogether.
"This is her own initiative. ... I want to find out what she really means, then we can discuss with her and see what our party program says," she said
