ENTRY #1784

Calling in sick today?: Until 1983, the Two Kingdoms of Jyskerige and Østveg classified homosexuality as a mental illness. That year, activists and those who wished to exploit the system took the classification as an illness to its logical extent. Jysk-Austwegians called in too gay to go to work. The law was changed by the summer of 1983.
