I am and I guess that is (or was) true. I mean that’s how I was raised at least: love who you want however you want as long as there is consent (and legal age of course). Though The Netherlands has gotten far more conservative over the last few years sadly.
During my stay in Netherlands (two two three years in total for different temporary jobs) I just loved big cities like Amsterdam: amazing people, queer culture, a lot of neat things! Some small towns were surprisingly horrible and conservative, though. There were situations that really shocked me and trashed my idealized expectations. It was such a mixed bag
I’ve read papers that indicate that there’s much less risk of damage in casual sex in places like that compared to the US where the culture and sex ed are much worse. As MLs, we need to observe these kinds of phenomena in the context of the world around them.
Aren’t you Dutch? I heard the Netherlands was one of the most “sex positive” places on the planet.
