I could say I'm in Korea to connect with my birth culture and stuff like that, but I think I am mostly here to eat.

The biggest difference between visiting Seoul in 2023 and 2026 is that the exposure to very loud K-pop everywhere has increased by 500%.

I don't need you to make a video explaining how men hurt women and benefit from male violence. I need you to stop hurting women in all aspects of your life and sit down.

The performative male ally is loving all this attention. Yes, that dude who is a staunch intersectional feminist and hates the patriarchy. The ones where we gush and say, oh he can have a podcast. Him too.

One thing that really p*sses me off though is the infantalising language around #adoption and the fertility industry. We are constantly referred to as children as if we never grow up as adult fully shaped people.

There was a panel with members of the council, a few researchers, a donor concieved person and a representative from the donor industry. That representative obviously argued against anonymity because, as she put it, then it might be difficult to get the product. Yes, she called it a product.

Went to an event by The Ethical Council of Denmark this evening. They presented their new recommendation on anonymous egg and sperm donation and the recommendation is to remove the anonymity. www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...

Overvældende flertal i Etisk Råd vil afskaffe anonyme sæddonorer
Hensynet til barnet bør tillægges særlig vægt, når det kommer til æg- og sæddonationer, mener Etisk Råds formand Christine Nellemann.

For #Chuseok celebrations, Koreans traditionally visit their families and pay respect to the spirits of their ancestors. For #adoptees this is complicated. I can't wait to see the land of my ancestors next week.

Her er Adoptionspolitisk Forums svar på høring om lovforslag om forlængelse af denne klausul. #adoption 🥚
Adoptionspolitisk Forum finder det fremsendte lovforslag til yderligere udskydelse af solnegangsklausul for Ankestyrelsens hjemmel til at varetage adoptioner i forbindelse med DIAs lukning yderst bekymrende.

Som nævnt i sidste høring om udskydelse i marts 2025, er det dybt problematisk at den selv samme organisation, der gentagende gange har ignoreret ulovligheder, fortsat skal håndtere adoptionsprocessen - uden ændring eller yderligere kontrol. 
At staten ønsker at fortsætte med at gennemføre adoptioner, via en styrelse, der ikke kan garantere hverken forsvarlig eller lovlig praksis – samtidig med man venter på et lovudkast, der skal sikre forsvarlige adoptioner, er for Adoptionspolitisk Forum uforståeligt men også er klar tilkendegivelse af man alene tager et hensyn til adoptanternes behov og ikke de formidlede børns rettigheder.

Siden sidste høring er der kun kommet flere eksempler på manglende tilsyn og ulovlig praksis, der har direkte konsekvenser for børns vilkår og rettigheder. Det må forventes at fortsætte under en forlængelse af Ankestyrelsens hjemmel.Vi henviser til vores oprindelige svar på indførslen af solnedgangsklausulen og henstiller til at man tager alvorligt at en offentlig instans forlænget sin hjemmel til at fortsætte en praksis, der ikke kan garanteres lovlig eller forsvarlig.

Solnedgangsklausulens udløb er en god anledning til at stoppe formidling af børn indtil forsvarlig praksis er sikret.

Venlig hilsen
Adoptionspolitisk Forum

Da det sidste private adoptionsbureau blev lukket ned, besluttede socialministeren at give Ankestyrelsen tilladelse til at agere adoptionsbureau indtil man har besluttet hvordan et nyt "forbedret" adoptionssystem skal se ud. Tilladelsen blev givet med en solnedsgangsklausul. > #adoption 🥚

Og lad mig tilføje, det er ikke en menneskeret at få børn og ingen dør af at det der fødselstal daler en smule.

I'm going to Korea next week with my 17yro. Last time we went was in 2023. The major difference between travelling with a 14yro and a 17yro is that this time he's the one who wants to do all the shopping.

There are several stories at fhe moment, highlighting serious problems in the fertility industry. Calls for regulations follow, but can we really regulate our way out of an industry that sells children?
000
MJ @moonjoo.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
Can we regulate the donor/surrogacy industries to not violate human rights and cross basic ethical boundaries? In my opinion, no. They have tried for decades to regulate the #adoption industry and failed. A demand and supply industry, involving children and money, can never be ethical.

Lidt lissom da Ankestyrelsen skulle føre tilsyn med adoptionsbureauerne og fejlede grelt. Nu er bureauerne lukkede og gæt hvem der formidler adoptioner. Jep, Ankestyrelsen.

Just like the adoption industry lies, the sperm banks lie. Do not trust them. Do not sell your genetic material to them. Do not buy generic material from them.

MJ @moonjoo.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
The European Sperm Bank scandal comes as no surprise to us adoptees. 60+ years of transnational #adoption has taught us that children are something you can trade for money via a private companies. This is the capitalist way and basic human rights do not apply. This is only the tip of the iceberg.

Posted something about racist white men marching through Copenhagen and Dover, and how their masks and hoodies cover the fact that they are actually our neighbours, colleagues, children's teachers etc. Have spent the last 24 hours deleting racist comments and blocking berks.

Adoptionspolitisk Forum (the adoptee led org I am a part of) were actually approached by this Christian org, after they had secured this sweet money deal from the state. They asked us if we could advice them on the adoptee's perspective. No money was offered for this work.

MJ @moonjoo.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
They will help pass information on to local authorities in the birth country, nothing more. The offer only runs for a 2 years. This is part of several initiatives including independent legal advice from a, I kid you not, Christian organisation.

I have no idea why Lebanon is one of the four countries. Denmark has only adopted 63 Lebanese children. The support mainly consists of informing the adoptees of what they can or can't expect to have access to in their birth countries. They will not do any active searching for the adoptees.
