In today's VG (Norwegian only, I'm afraid) a mayor candidate from the second biggest party, Fremskrittspartiet (which for some reason is bunched in with the so-called conservative parties) advices Norwegian men to get Asian wives. He further states that in contrast to egotistical, career-obsessed Norwegian women, Asian women are polite, modest, and value the traditional family structure. Dude goes even further, and states that kids today are nervous and overweight because of the equal rights movement. Norwegian women, Per Bjørnar Rødde claims, are prone to drinking, fighting and casual sex, are rude in traffic, and are more or less indistinguishable from men. The picture below shows Rødde and his Indonesian wife in an - according to him - ideal family.
The female leader of Fremskrittspartiet, Siv Jensen, does not wish to comment on his statement, and who can blaim her. I've got no particular love for Fremskrittspartiet, but I can't help feeling for Siv Jensen when one of their mayoral candidates - who even claims to be "relatively young and highly educated" - does something like this. EPIC meltdown (unrequested fission surplus, that is) from a loser who had to go to the other side of the world to find a woman who's willing to hang out with him. I bet he's the kind of "guy" who suspects that every woman who's ever turned him down (and barring his sister, if he has one, I suspect that's a woman for almost every attempt on his part) is a lesbian.
Still think that there should be no formal requirements for people wanting to hold an official position? Methinks a simple IQ test would've weeded this specimen out. I really wonder what he means by highly educated though - probably that he finished junior high school as the first one in his family before he turned 30. Damn oxygen thief.

This guy is born 3 centuries too late. Poor him. After that I really wonder if he will be elected. The sad part : probably yes.
There are people from different parts of the world who marry because they have much in common, are at the same place in life and have had a chance to get to know each other by being geographically close for at least a while, and there are people from different parts of the world who marry because one of them saw a picture of the other in a catalogue provided by some mail order pimp agency. You take a wild guess as to which category this dude belongs to.
Well, he isn't a major candidate, actually. He just a local politician with a slight possibility to get elected, and now he's after the female votes... ;-)
And the funniest part of this story (except that Siv Jensen is probably one of the female politicians that has taken most crap of all today, and FrPs delightful history of sexism and rape cases) is that Per Bjørnar Rødde actually send is views in an e-mail to VG, and did not expect the paper to publish it.
Truly a genious of hitherto uknown proportions. But in local elections such as the upcoming one and in smaller communities, I'd say dude's got a fighting chance, unfortunately.
It doesn't say why he decided to send the email stating his life's philosophy to the newspaper - and I'm using the term lightly - in the first place, though.

He was pissed of about the news story about international reseraches suggested lower taxes for women so that more women can take a job outside the home. I don't know if the story was featured in VG or Dagbladet (couldn't find it in a serach in either of them), but it's just the season for such news...
Forgot to ask, which term are you using lightly, philosophy or newspaper?

Does it really matter?
