Brandão Jönsson participated together with chef Jennie Walldén in a panel on "Sunday in P4" that gave listeners advice on various dilemmas. A woman wondered what she should do to make her man better in bed. After first suggesting that the couple visit a sexologist, Brandão Jönsson advised the woman to send her man to Copenhagen and pay for sex.

That's what you do in Brazil to learn, and in Spain, said Henrik Brandão Jönsson.

These men have low self-confidence, they need help. This is not controversial to say in Brazil, but it's extremely controversial in Sweden, explained Henrik Brandão Jönsson, who has lived in Brazil for 25 years.

The program host Farah Adabi reacted strongly to his suggestion of buying sex, which is illegal in Sweden.

Are you completely out of your mind, she exclaimed and then asked him to leave the panel.

I don't think it's okay to suggest that someone goes and buys sex in Denmark, said Farah Adabi.

Henrik Brandão Jönsson is the Latin America correspondent for Dagens Nyheter. The newspaper's editor-in-chief Peter Wolodarski writes in an SMS to Aftonbladet:

"We will talk to our colleague about what has happened, refrains from commenting further for the time being".
