Shouldn't that be demerit badges?
Young Norwegians can earn a merit badge in sex this summer. The pin, modeled on a popular summer swimming merit badge, is an offer from Swedish-Norwegian sex education group RFSU, also the main producer and importer of condoms to Norway, newspaper VG reports.
The badge, which displays sperm cells swimming in waves, can be won by correctly answering 10 out of 13 questions about sex.
"You need a license to drive a car and you should have a sex certificate
that shows you don't take health risks. This is done seriously and with humor
and the goal of course is to get more people using condoms," said RFSU
manager Tone-Berit Lintho.

The only surprising thing in this article is the fact that there are still young Norwegians. Oh well, that won't last at the present trend.
