How old is Denmark?
To buy alcohol in bars you need to be 18, however there is no drinking age, and an adult can buy alcohol for you. By tradition youths are privately allowed to drink alcohol after their confirmation[29]. If a shop or bar fails to ask for an ID-card and they are identified having sold alcohol to an underage, they are fined. A national ID-card can be obtained in the local town hall in order for the youth to verify their age in shops.[30] This card is rarely used though, since a passport or moped-licence can be used.

W.C.T.U. stands for the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, founded in 1873 in Evanston Illinois. It and the Anti-Saloon League were leaders in the crusade for Prohibition. Members originally advanced their cause by entering saloons, singing, praying, and urging saloonkeepers to stop selling alcohol. Later they began using education, mobilization of anti-alcohol forces, and other activities to advance Prohibition.

Frances Willard had asserted that "Our policy is 'The Do-everything-policy, and do it all the time.'" Accordingly, it has addressed a number of other social reform issues, including "lust-free" marriage, sanitation, abstinence from tobacco, public health, abortion, homosexuality, labor rights, premarital chastity, eugenics, prostitution, gambling, pornography, international peace, dress reform, illicit drugs, suffrage, same-sex marriage, women's rights, the "War on Christmas," the display of Scripture in public places, and maintaining Blue laws prohibiting golf and other leisure activities on Sundays. Currently emphasized is abstinence from alcohol and drugs, pornography, same-sex marriage, premarital chastity, homosexuality, and keeping Christ in Christmas. The WCTU currently reports having 5,000 members, a staff of four, and an annual budget of $250,000.
