One thing that has to be added is that dating doesn't necessarily need to be a thing here.... Sure, of course, people are dating, we have dating apps, even hookup culture etc. But most people I know just met their partners through school, work, friends or at a party. That initial spark tends to happen naturally and organically in settings like those. An important aspect for a lot of Swedes (I think) is to feel a meaningful and emotional connection with another person. Dating, at least to me feels much more like an imported "American concept" that turns love into a commodity where there is a big focus on consuming goods and services and where it is implied that men should "show off" to swoon girls. I think most Swedes just like a more natural settings. The biggest cultural difference I can come to think of is that there isn't a large divide between genders. A friend of mine threw a big birthday get-together just a week ago, and we were basically just a big group of mixed adults ranging from 25-45 year olds, everyone was interacting with one another in a very mixed setting, gender, age or sexual orientation didn't really matter, and people mingled around quite organically. Something that objectively felt quite unique compared to what I have witnessed when traveling abroad (where people tend to group up in guy groups and girl groups)

Yeah, thats why everyone here isn’t drowning in debt

pretty funny considering im gonna be todd soon

That’s why as a Turkish i find American culture more similar to ours than Western / Northern Europe. When I learned for the first time that in Scandinavia hosts literally collect money from their guests before they leave the house it blew my mind

Oh, they’re like the British. 😂😂

Same as German culture 😂

As I recall this is the same observation by some of the original wave of Norwegian black metal musicians.

Hello I just watched yalls video and I’m from Dallas Texas. The cute girl at 1:37 min mark can y’all ask who she is plz? I would like to take her out for a date 😊 thank y’all have a good day/night

What she is describing is common amont students who cant afford to pay for everyone's diner. So its more about eatint together, socializing and then share the bill instead of eating alone. Some friend groups may keep the habbit after graduating but for most people when you invite guests over it's not common that you make them pay. Same with the baggel per person, thats not common. I suggest she looks for better friends..

I'm a Gemini man, extrovert and with a parrot in my mouth to describe how locuacious I am. The typical loud mouth, funny, angry extremily social. While I know being social is cool. But, In Defense of Swedes, they're into something with their approach to social life; Excessive talk don't build, like:thinking.... And not all Friends are real friends. My Father told me: in Life You'll be Lucky to have at least One Real friend. " friends come and go, only there be the one who comes to save and protect you. In times when youve fallen in deep trouble, sickness and loneliness, they would come to lift and save you. Real friends. Just a few....

Lmao cringe

Im swedish and I love to make new friends! No matter the time of the year! And since I tend to fall asleep if I drink, I dont promise things I cant keep 😂

Dating in canada is boring as fuck hahaha. From both sides, my female international friends also complain about the guys.

Iryna Fedchenko is very famous in Mexico.

Honest opinion, japanese and Indonesian women are good. Others are cigans

I find it so dumb that Croats and Serbs “hate each other” I’m from Croatia, and if you are nice and don’t hurt other people with the fact where you come from, I don’t really care. (This is my opinion)

No les preguntaron sobre el uso del BIDET; es un tema tabú en los países de los entrevistados... sobre todo en Alemania, no sé me dijeron 😂

No soy Argentina (uruguaya) pero me siento muy identificada con las cosas que dicen! Tanto las buenas como las malas. Muy TAL CUAL

I am American with a whole lot of Irish...I am kinda cray like this . But sober . Kinda Extra... poor guys haha

Tip: create a leak that you have an important, high paying job.

I've dated a Mexican woman for 2 years, what my biggest culture shock was, was that Mexicans work a lot, she works like, 6 days a week, 12 hours a day, here in the Netherlands it's like, 4 days, and 8 hours a day, for most people, anyway, it was the best time of my life, an experience that I will never forget, and also, I hope to one day, end up in Mexico, and just go party with her and a couple of her friends, because that's something the Dutch, and the Mexicans have in common, they LOVE to party, I also love Mexican food, spicy food in general is amazing, but Mexican food is my absolute favourite, music wise I also love Mexico, Mariachi has become one of my favourite music genres to listen to Karla, I am forever greatful that we crosses paths, you mean so so much to me, I will always love you and support you for who you are, and what you desire in life <3

The finnish lady is straight up resentful with brazil, I think its jealously

Is this a joke?? That indian girl looks the prettiest among them.

Yo la verdad no entiendo a estos extranjeros , hacen contenido sobre Mí país y no son capaces de subtitular a el español. Un Desastre... Je.

Aaaaaawwww!!! <3

Sounds like Norwegians are emotionally constipated

Can I now see a Hijabi Moroccan?

That mens don't open doors for you is not true at all.

Ga niet voor elke kennis betalen vriendin

Qué lindos somos los argentinos ❤

Like Switzerland...

I never had to pay to eat dinner with my friends or family. However, my neighbours and best friend's parents did not like having people over for dinner. They used to send me home before they had dinner, soon followed by my best friend popping down the road to join my family for a second round of dinner. My mum always invited anyone to join us for dinner, from neighbourhood kids to my dad's customers, who seemed to always drop in by dinner time, enquiring if their favourite chicken soup was on the menu that day. Wednesday was pancake day, which was very popular in the neighbourhood. Our dinner table used to be very crowded almost every day.

Great, so now I know why I have social anxiety and come from a family of alcoholics 😂

Hey! I want to clarify something. grasshoppers are not a normal food. Some indigenous ethnic groups from places like Oaxaca ate it, Oaxacan vendors took it to CDMX and sold it as something from our roots, but 99.9% of the country does not eat those things on a regular basis and they are part of our purchases in the market. It's a tourist trap.

Kazakh women are so gorgeous 😍 . A combination of Asias and Slavics.

damn...the way argentinians speak spanish is very attractive

On the first sight it looks like this girl has some mental problems. I am scared that this is representative of Australians. Please tell me you are different guys !

A lot of the interview men that she speak of are probably hypocrites. I've met men like that (and women) They get upset if women say they wont have children etc but if they do they are punished career wise

Man who says that he doesn't know what to do with a child... Yeah um... Like ok if his girlfriend is fine with it, but that's just sad man. Just because he's an idiot doesn't mean all men are. I've known women that can't. men that cant. Men that can and women that can.

I'm greek im suffering rn

So wholesome. Thanks to all of them. Aguante Argentina!

Indian girls are the best❤

The hypocrisy of the woman, wishing more Estonian men would step up and be more brave. Maybe if you weren't so cold and unwelcoming, they might be more apt to approach you! This isn't rocket science.

I lived in Greece for a number of years. As long as you try to pronounce a word correctly they love you. If you are too lazy to listen properly and try they usually just say thenbirazi and move on.

sad but very true

How to normal person turn into a war criminal in just two words.

This is spot on. For me, and perhaps for most Western men, these personality traits common with German women come across as unfriendly, cold, and often rude. They will defend it by saying they are just honest and direct, but that doesn't fly with me. Basic courtesy and kindness, especially on a first date, go a long way. I am sure there are some German women who aren't like this, but the stereotype exists for a reason.

Very similar to japan. Been living here for almost a decade, and it's the same type of conversations and reactions, just less social.

1 52 i think an even bigger peoblem with that one was that u didn't even let him speak a bit of smalltalk at the beginning is ok to find something deeper to talk about but u should let him actually finish saying something. I am also german and it's seen as very rude to just cut in when someone is trying to talk.

Thats not even remotely true. Maybe the problem is her? She seems kind of obnoxious.
