– I think actually it is just fun. I was both laid up in years, and last year, and I see it not as something offensive or something. It is actually a little bit ridiculous. Actually, I think it is bloody stupid that they close down for it, says Sara Frithjof from 2.G at Egedal Gymnasium for a Extra Magazine.
She backed up by Viktor Koch Ortvald, who also find it ridiculous that the school has chosen to close down for the babe calendar on Instagram.

Need to know the rights
Message from the management to the students is clear. They need to learn to befærde on the social media.
– We have been going to have to say hey friends, there is something you have misunderstood in terms of how to behave on social media. And when we see that there is someone who thinks it is not in order with such a profile, we must say, as a school, we do not think it is a good idea, says Egedal Gymnasiums rector, Camilla Rye Jørgensen to Ekstra Bladet.

Back among the students at Egedal Gymnasium there is a big ærgelse the decision to close the babe-advance down.
‘It makes me not really matter, that it is there. I think it is too bad that it has been shut down. We have not heard anyone that has been bored over to be on the profile,’ tell the girls in the choir. Photo: Stine Tidsvilde
‘I think it’s crap actually. I think it is very fun, it is there,’ says Malou from 3.G for Extra Magazine, and she is backed by her friends.
Among the pupils, who are behind the Instagram-profile ‘egedaljulebabes,’ is the message clearly. They will not find themselves in that their traditions are being taken from them.
‘We go against the school, as we believe that there is nothing wrong in having such a babejulekalender. We believe the school is for adults and too old to understand it. We have already been deprived of our put videos, which also has been a tradition for several years. They are too old-fashioned. We are tired of it,’ sounds from the people behind the profile in a written reply to Ekstra Bladet.
There is already now been created a new profile, despite the fact that the school’s leadership in the first place was put a stop to the babe-the christmas calendar.
