I know, he has a point. I just was at a thrift shop today who thought they were super clever by playing "Thrift Shop" in the store so the example was fresh on my mind and I had to point it out.

And that rapper is an exception. If I looked out the window in the winter I might very well see women in fur coats, but there is no chance I will see men in fur coats. On the other hand I might see men in suits, whereas there is pretty much 0 chance of seeing women in suits. Just like here in the summer you will see loads of women in dresses, but no men in dresses. Some clothing is just gender specific.
Hey I did see a black man in real life once when I was 9; he was sitting in the back of a bus. And once in a blue moon I see brown people (middle easteners).
In TV yes; not sure I have in real life. I would slant towards no. (Remember there only is ~55k Greenlanders in total and most live on Greenland.)
Businesswomen? They tend to wear suits.
Huh, that's weird. Germany and Holland have plenty of black people, as does Sweden.
Scratch that: I have seen Greenlanders. All the drunks at Klostertorvet (monestary square) in central Århus are Greenlanders. There is a common stereotype here about Greenlanders being drunks and that didn't come from nothing. Greenlanders in general have loads of alcoholism problems and high suicide rates. As of yet it hasn't been found out why living on Greenland is so depressing that people take to the bottle and commit suicide. Greenlanders in general also are poorly educated as they sadly drop out after primary school. Again it hasn't been found out which part of living on Greenland leads to that.
We even have a word for being really drunk, grønlænderstiv, which literally translated means Greenlander paralytic. (With paralytic meant in the "very drunk" meaning.)

Would your family be accepting if you brought a Greenlandic chick home for dinner (without too much cutlery, of course)?
Don't they rather wear skirts and some kind of jacket? That is my impression here. And women most certainly don't wear ties here.
There are some here too (e.g. that Somalian who last election bragged about how he had been here 22 years, worked for less than 2 and hence been on full benefits for over 20, and hadn't even learned a little bit of Danish...) But all those people live in the ghettos (plus we have more brown than black people) and I never travel in the ghettos.
They wouldn't care. Those times where parents tried to decide who their children should marry ended with my great grandparents. (As in my great grandparents was the last generation who tried to decide it when my grandparents got married around half a century ago).
Now nobody cares who you bring home. Also the dinners with a dozen different silverware ended around the time I was born and pretty much all of the people who upheld that tradition have now sadly died. Boy have I been to loads of funerals already despite only being 24---and I haven't even participated in all the funerals from the old generation (since many of them I didn't really know).

Ghettos in Denmark?
Black people here really aren't viewed as lower class or anything. That "honour" goes to Arabs, I've never seen anyone speak ill of a black person.

or this brunette
Notice no tie and how you can't really call it a suit what they are wearing.
With regard to ghettos then the Arabs live there too. And of course we have them---and so do all the other Nordic countries too. If we prevented them we would be violating the human rights of the people in the ghettos after all.
You are telling me you don't have ghettos in the Netherlands? That sounds unbelieveable.
And where did I speak ill of Blacks?
Unless you can read lips, I wouldnt expect you to see somebody speaking ill of anybody. You hear them.https://www.google.nl/search?q=busi...ved=0ahUKEwjwqcvV76jOAhVEvBoKHbmnDOkQ_AUIBigB

Thanks for showing women in shirts, jackets, skirts and pants, Wagonlitz.
Never seen any thus attired before.

Unless you mean highrise neighbourhoods mostly populated by immigrants, which have a slightly higher crime rate but excellent services, running water and electricity, schools, shopping malls, police stations and vast stretches of parks/parking spaces - no, we don't.
If you do mean those neighbourhoods, I suggest you visit the USA where they have real ghettos. I'd say Brazil, but you wouldn't come back alive
In fact, tourism into the Favellas (sp?) is increasing, and the locals seem to encourage it. It's a good source of income from what I understand.Unless you mean highrise neighbourhoods mostly populated by immigrants, which have a slightly higher crime rate but excellent services, running water and electricity, schools, shopping malls, police stations and vast stretches of parks/parking spaces - no, we don't.

I advised him against this in another thread.
Or he could go to Bangladesh, where they have real ghettos.Unless you mean highrise neighbourhoods mostly populated by immigrants, which have a slightly higher crime rate but excellent services, running water and electricity, schools, shopping malls, police stations and vast stretches of parks/parking spaces - no, we don't.
