Smith a t t e n d e d schools in uregon and Wash ington, arsi holds a bachelors degree In IrslustrlalManage ment. lie lias erqerencod 22 years of service In tie A ir Force, arsi l i s a served Black men extremely attrac tive physically and are quite vocal In their expressions of sheer admiration. Then too, tliere are less than two hundred Blacks living liere. Most are men. The darling Danes are ab solutely color blind. If you catch them staring at you It's easy to see that it's done with warmth and often a de sire to meet and know you. In addition to Danish, this social welfare state Is an Engllsh- s|ieaklng nation. If a Dane sees you more than once and wants to meet you, lie will politely approach you and Introduce Ids faintly aid himself to you. They're very faintly minded peofie. One moves, all move. At private parties litre, seeing American Black men dancing liter funcky chicken or slow dragging with pretty, blue-eyed blordes doesn't even rale a second look or a hat of the eye. The Danes love to dance and are su- purb dancers. The reverse Is also true, American Black women fasci nate many of tlese ancestors of die daring Danish Vikings. Typical of male hospitality Is tall, soft spoken and charm ing Kurt Nielsen of tlie Dan- marks Iu ris tra d . While es corting you on an extensive tour of his country, he places emphasis on die smallest de tails that add to your comfort and make you feel right at home. T ie Dares are among the world's finest cooks and gour mets. While dining w ld iN lel- sen, if by a l i r e chance some thing doesn't quite suit your fancy, he becomes agonized and shows a pained expres sion until you taste something else and eat up with delight. If you are not overwlelmingly pleased with your meal here, die c le f will have a heart attack and consider shoot ing himself right after hand ing In his resignation. T hat’ s how prixal tliese Danes are of dielr unparalled, superbly prepared food. 11!.

And, It only takes a few hours. Ladies, If your man even suggests to you that he's think ing about beading this way for a lew days'» rest, quickly, |>ack your lags and lie ready to accompany him uri his SAS flight. A woman certainly would be out of her cotton pick ing to let tier man land liere alone. Scaitllnavlana— Danes In particular are addicted to rolling out tlreir royal red carpets lo r Black Americans who come liere, es|ieclally men. Having (raveled around tie world four times numeruus stops, tills reporter has found few oilier vacation havens— In predorulnaiitely Caucasion countries- where Black men are treated more godlike. Why? It's easy to pin point! D a n is h people es- pec tally women, consider Novem ber lung up over sex like so many Americans are. 1 ley know and realize that sex is liere to stay, has a place and keep it in its place. Here any schoolboy can wander down famed I ’ edes- tratn Street, oogle frank and honest sex posters and a r tl- faks and. keep going. In fact, if you watch most children, you’ ll see that soon, very soon, tfey become bored looking at sex displays and soon skip off to become hyno- tiz.ed by plastic whales skit tering around in water while spouting steam. There are sex shows here too-all legal. And they too are kept in d e ir place, in one part of town. Dne thing for sure, if you vacation liere you can never he bored or lonely. 7 here's always some thing to do and always friends with whom you can do it.
