This is the MOST Sexually Open City in the World
This city was named the most s*xually liberated city in the world in 2023, so I decided to head there and see how true it is.

Cologne, Germany
I’m texting my German friend right now from Dortmund and see if she agrees with your video. She is very candid whenever I ask her opinion so it would be interesting to hear her feedback.
so how did it go? dont leave a cliff hanger 😉
@@remyzzzzz She doesn’t agree. She said the YouTuber’s opinion was just her opinion and not of the average German. It really depends on who ask. For sure, she said, Cologne is not the most liberal city in the world.
Sexually liberated is not the same as sexually active. In other words, an average guy can’t just go to Cologne and expect to get laid easily.
If you drink no problem
Anyone can pay to have physical action but relationships are hard
So what’s it’s sexuality open? Accepting homosexuality? 🤦♂️
@@Frivals That’s exactly what it means they’re open to LGBTQP+ 😬
@@uncomfortabletruth2988 you missed the YRXESRE++-+
6:10 funny that you give a point against Berlin since almost all of my German friends have said Berlin is the friendliest city in Germany. Including those who moved to ‘friendlier’ cities like Cologne and Leipzig. Perhaps as a tourist Cologne is friendlier but after living in the city, Berlin definitely is friendlier.
Huh – interesting! Berliners have a reputation of being rude. Even if you google this topic you’ll see Reddit comments on this and the experiences of your friends seem to be in the minority. But Berliners are laid-back and blunt, which is also a positive, so if we look at it this way, their experience might make more sense. I haven’t lived there so can’t say for sure.
Cologne is the friendliest City
@@DatingBeyondBorders yeah, it definitely makes a difference when you live in the city or not. Have definitely heard of Berlin’s reputation for being rude but that’s mostly been from English speaking sources. From German speaking sources, Berlin usually has a reputation of being nowhere near as blunt or rude as the rest of Germany. Even DW (a German media channel) released a video about this some years ago. It’s a well-known stereotype in Germany that Berlin is so different from the rest of Germany that it’s not considered as part of Germany by most Germans because of how quirky and friendly Berliners are to everyone instead of the stereotypical serious German. But Germans probably have a different definition of friendliness than everyone else.
Leipzig and Berlin are more “alternative”, because they are in the East, but people in the western cities are more friendly and in my opinion Cologne has the coolest people in Germany, even though I like Hamburg the most, because I feel I fit there with my type of personality.
@@macroxela As a southeast European foreigner who has spent quite some time in Germany, I have to say that comparing friendliness in Berlin and in Cologne is almost useless… from my experience. People in Cologne were definitely the friendliest Germans I have ever met (e.g. friendlier and more easy going than people of Hamburg and those in southern Germany), while Berliners were less friendly, less polite, rougher and more aggressive than all of these.
Another excellent video, Marina.
@marina: the red live district where you have been is the student quarter hahah
Noo way. It was the red light district on Google maps 😲
@@DatingBeyondBorders don’t worry. But here is not a real red light district. But we have the biggest brothel in europe, it is called “Pascha”
Cologne probably wouldn’t even be in the top 20 in europe.
What world be some of those cities according to you?
I am curious what all of the population of Cologne think rather then just unmarried young people.
We could start off by asking their (the people interviwed by the Russian woman) parents for example on what they think about their children choices. 😆
Most likely it’s like how the rest of germany in 1920’s saw the weimar republic.
Interesting video
Is Cologne a city for you?
Can you stop using generative AI for the thumbnails? They are really uncomfortable IMHO.
I lived most of my life close to Cologne and still spend a lot of time there. I don’t want to leave – sometimes Cologne can be a bit dirty and ugly but it depends on the district and the relaxed, open-minded attitude and the scene-life make up for it; plus, my friends live in the area. Too bad I didn’t see you when you visited; would have loved to talk to you.
It’s Berlin☝️ 😛
Being proud of homosexuality acceptance is a bad thing for a society 👎 this should not be considered in the ranking of “sexuality open”
@@Frivals whats your problem?
If Everybody would nice to each other, there would be no war hate etc.
You’re just a frustratet person … it is not your business
I’ve been there. But I was on my way to somewhere else. Some people in the outskirts did lodge me. They were so nice. I walked around and people talked to me. Once a German girl on a bike we just exchanged a quick look from a distance and she was talking to me before I finished to think ‘too bad I am not on a bike’. Something similar happened at a comic book shop another girl. I was so naive. And stupid. Well for a nerd I was way beyond but lost many chances. Now it all makes sense.
quite interesting! thanks
Been to cologne couple of times, night life was good but nothing to really write home about
Looks like I’m headed to Cologne Germany 😂. Marina you are really out here putting us on. Thanks gurl!
It sounds like to me the sexually liberated part is just one facet of Cologne, Germany as it sounds more like the most friendly & social city in Germany akin to places such as Osaka in Japan or the North of England etc
nah germany isnt that grweat
I’ve been to Thailand this year and to be honest Phuket and Pattaya are FAR more welcoming than any European city could ever be. And I think it has to be because of the Buddhist background contrary to the Christian background most European cities have.
Definitely – or any major city Japan, South Korea, etc.
that is a good point!
I don’t think it’s just Buddhism, I think it’s the specific Thailand brand of Buddhism
Probably because they’re hotspots of sex tourism.
There is a lovely song about Cologne on Goldfrapp’s best album ‘Seventh Tree’
It’s on my Astrorelocation TAU Moon-IC line, and close to Beethoven’s birthplace, Bonn!
This video popped up in my feed during a 3 hour rehearsal, and BassLab–my favourite brand–is German. Also Cologne is along the same line as Amsterdam on my Astrorelocation TAU Moon-IC. So “slowly growing nearer to the time…a sign” -Greg Lake
Very nicely done 👍🏽
Really interesting video….gracias!
