It can perform rescue operations, etch murals, hoist a flag and even steal ice cream from children.

I like the style of it.
But why? I know attitudes to sex are very different in the Scandi countries but this is madness.

But being Danish, here’s mine: The Danish equivalent to BBC has a long tradition for unorthodox kids-entertainment. As far as I know, their people creating it are usually young and have relatively large creative freedom in what they make.
The show has caused quite a stir in DK as well.
Bonus info: my 3 year-old likes it (at first he assumed it was a tail, until I broke the truth - which made it even better).
Fingers crossed for a female season 2...

In the first episode when the dog bites his penis holding a sausage.

When it's patently obvious that couldn't be further from the truth!
I find it joyously bonkers and don't have much time for the guy claiming it's "a celebration of the power of male genitalia", like penises can actually do what's portrayed. I'm very glad they include a comment from a psychologist saying that the opponents "may be overthinking things....kids do find genitals funny".
Also: Dammit - you beat me to it!

I blame religions and Victorian bullshit, Freud didn't exactly help.

Better educated children who are not embarrassed to mention them are more difficult for abusers to manipulate or blackmail. So much so that committed predatory types go to other cultures where it is easier, like Thailand or Cambodia.

you were beginning to sound like a naturist, and they seem to me to be attention seeking exhibitionists. I saw some nudists playing tennis once, balls flying around everywhere. It was pretty clear to me they were enjoying being looked at by those who passed by far more than they were enjoying the tennis. And they weren’t barefoot, trainers and socks, which made me think getting their cocks out was what it was really all about. Which given the courts were in a park with loads of kids all around the place made the whole enterprise highly suspect.

AFAIK the naturists are more likely to have private resorts or beaches. I imagine for most people once the initial embarrassment is over, it might become mundane, pity teenagers though, unexpected boner!

My 1-child test panel that has watched all episodes twice, is at the sexual awareness-level of “penis! - teeheh”. And I assume that the rest of the target-audience is similar.
I would argue that the creators (and the psychologist quoted) has a pretty good idea about their audience.
