The nationally known sexologist Carl-Mar Møller has died at the age of 72. His wife Helle Møller has confirmed this to DR News.
He was pronounced dead at the couple's home in NivĂĄ yesterday, it is reported.
For many years, Carl-Mar Møller appeared in the media and provoked with statements such as "the penis is god, but the vagina holds the power."
He truly became famous in the 1990s for his comments on gender roles and genitalia, but he also participated in the debate many years later.

He was a declared feminist, and in 2016 he stepped into the gender debate (https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/feministen-carl-mar-moeller-kvinder-lever-paa-mange-omraader-et-lorteliv), where he said that women's conditions in society had worsened over the previous ten years.
– Man is psychologically inferior to woman. That is why man needs to oppress woman through religion, culture, and economics, because he is the weaker sex, Carl-Mar Møller said at the time.

He ran the school from his home on a large farm near Kokkedal and also held controversial bachelor party events. There, men in more or less undressed states were subjected to various boundary-testing experiences.
Ekstra Bladet (https://ekstrabladet.dk/nyheder/samfund/polterabend-gik-helt-galt-hos-carl-mar-tager-konsekvensen/7255162) has previously described how a bachelor party went wrong when a car with lightly dressed men in a cage on the roof tipped over. However, no one was seriously injured.

The farm burned down in 2022, but he continued his work as a therapist.
In connection with his 70th birthday, he said in an interview with Ritzau that he would work as long as he could.
– I get inspired and have something to think about. Every time I have a new client, I learn something new, he said at the time.
In addition to his work as a therapist, Carl-Mar Møller published 13 books on body, children, relationships, and therapy, and developed several board games.
He also appeared in a number of TV programs both as a couples and psychotherapist, but also with entertaining segments on 'Big Brother VIP' and 'Zulu Djævleræs'.
