Once upon a time, our ancestors sailed to England to rape the women and plunder the rich. Nowadays, we just send our sperm by air mail, and the English people pays up when we send them the bills.

We have indeed evolved - much easier, less screaming and more profitable. What's not to like? ^_^

@jakobdam According to science that is not true, no rape.. because if the was true there would be much more recognizable Danish DNA in the UK and there is not.

@Lennydk That's curious, since the Danes actually held a piece in Northern England around a thousand years ago, just before England started becoming a genuine power in its own right. I'd guess the scientists in question took that into account and were expecting to see more?

It could be that the English didn't allow the children of rape to live. It'd also be interesting to see if any English blood entered the Scandinavian countries back then, since that might indicate that the Vikings were taking women back... although going that far back, it'd probably be hard to distinguish Eastern English DNA from German.

@Lennydk @Draxynnic Or it may be that raped women (or at least those who got pregnant) took their own lives (or had their lives taken) before it came to term. A lack of a clear genetic pool does not equal a lack of rape.

@Kemm A little late to respond, but yes, that was one of the considerations I had in mind.

@Draxynnic the danes kind of became english and changed the english lalnguage from it's Germanic form to this weird ungermanic language we speak today, they also added the plural s , before that you wouldn't have a field of goats you would have a field of gaat, and you wouldn't have two houses, but have two house.

@Ice0tea
Well, the Vikings were Germanic, the reason English is so un-Germanic is because of the Norman-French. We get our plurals and Latin bases from them

@Australian-Person but it was the handy work of the vikings that spread it out

@Lennydk

It's important to point out that most of the Danes in England settled in the Danelaw (now Yorkshire) and that was the region put to the sword by Willie the Bastard in the Harrowing of the North

@jakobdam Well the whole sexual element's kinda lost, I'd say that'd be sad for both the men and women.. Maybe..? I'm a girl, I'd honestly rather have sex than just the pregnancy and the kid, the sex is the fun part!

@emma19 well if you'd rather have the sex part come to England I'm sure no one would complain lol (I certainly wouldn't ;-)

@MrOdinlemont I'm not sure it'd be as fun, if English men can't supply the necessary sperm for their own women ;)

@emma19 we can supply the sperm just incase you hadnt noticed British men (including myself) are probably the most goofy plain looking people around. Plus most men are dick who just want the sex and not the baby so the ladies are skipping the assholes and going straight to the bank.
Which is why I suggested nerds. You far more likely to get a good relationship out of a nerd as nerds are usually so grateful that someone wants to spend any time with them at all lol

@MrOdinlemont Yeeah, nerds are awesome. I'm a nerd... Yes, female nerds exist! :P

@emma19 aha awesome we could do with more female nerds lol and from what I'm told nerds are some of the most kinky lol

@MrOdinlemont ..... Maybe... I don't wanna comment on that... *Blushes* It's... totally not true..

@emma19 aha well you don't have to answer if you dont want to lol we brits are nothing if not we'll mannered. Though personally it's nothing to be embarrassed about. Sex is a natural part of nature and kinky sex is just a fun part of nature lol

@MrOdinlemont I'm not really uncomfortable about talking about kinkyness, I just think it's fun to uphold the illusion of me being a good girl. It's fun to see how much people freak out when they realize just how kinky and twisted I can be ;)

@emma19 ok call me intrigued lol plus those who play the good girl card tend to be the most kinky.

@emma19 also miss Emma you were quite adept at talking of sperm and sex why the discomfort over kinkiness ;-)

Nearly fell off my perch. Wonder what the post offices and airport cargo handles think about handling all this liquid gold.

Well the Danes always had very good seamen..

@ShadowAkatora i see what you did there ;)

@yvonnebello IT'S THE VIKAPOCALYPSE

@Giraffe *SCREAMS*

@Giraffe VALHALLA!

@Giraffe Baby blues

When I first saw this I thought she was just stealing his socks.

Why steal? Or use a sperm bank. Denmark will shag you for free

Just another example of history repeating itself. Male Vikings were highly admired amongst Anglo-Saxon women from all social classes, especially due to how hygienic and well-groomed the Vikings were, compared to their neighboring peoples.

@EricTheRedAndWhite
” (The Danes) …caused much trouble to the natives of the land; for they were wont, after the fashion of their country, to comb their hair every day, to bathe every Saturday, to change their garments often, and set off their persons by many frivolous devices. In this matter they laid siege to the virtue of the married woman, and persuaded the daughters even of the noble to be their concubines”. John of Wallingford, 1002.

As excuses for a massacre (St Brice's Day) it leaves a little to be desired.

@EricTheRedAndWhite
Indeed, the grooming among scandinavians was (and still is) legendary. Even the Salme viking ship burial unearthed some combs.
Although, the arabs on the Volga were not so impressed about the hygiene (when compared to grooming) of Scandinavian vikings.

Thus America was born

@partoftheuniverse In a way it's the story of my family tree. Though our members made direct deposits if you know what I mean?

The Vikings at cuming the Vikings are cuming!

@Clampity LOL...

This makes me feel inadequate as an American. Time to do my part and beat Denmark.

@Theomniadept somehow I doubt EU will transport sperm from america, when we got plenty of it over here. Even then, best of luck with that plan.

@daniboyi This isn't about who gets what sperm this is about who makes the most. I don't care abut a little chafing and bleeding I'm gonna put America back at #1 where we belong.

@Theomniadept Well, you have to remember the Danish men bang their women AND donate sperm. Good luck with that, America ;)

@Theomniadept He's not the thing you'd have to beat...

@Theomniadept makes YOU feel inadequate think of all the British virgins out there who feel inadequate. . . Me included *sniffle*

I heard about this some time ago in a German late night show, due to the exit of Britain, they will no longer receive sperm donations and the host starts to make jokes along the line of:´" that´s what you get for trying to leave, now we will simply close up your sperm supplies, so you have to use your own gene pool for reproduction", whilst simultaneously showing a picture of a stereotypical Brit.
