In an opinion piece published over the weekend, Danish psychologist and therapist Finn Korsaa likened the #MeToo movement there with the Nazi Gestapo. Korsaa, a privately practicing psychologist, author, and regular columnist at the Danish daily Berlingske, said that the push for female equality has gone too far. That a columnist living in one of the most progressive parts of the world would say this speaks volumes for the trajectory of the #MeToo movement here in the United States.
Korsaa took issue with workplace gender quotas, pointing out the logical fallacies. “The issue of women’s quotas in corporate boards has long been like a hot potato. But how come no one insists on changing the significant overrepresentation of female psychologists? And why do we never ever hear demands for more men in the role of nurses?” Korsaa wrote.
