Sexual norms in Sweden

Hello

I hear very often that Sweden is a sexually permissive and open-minded society and women are not judged negatively for having many partners, unlike in other countries that are 'patriarchal' where women's sexuality is suppressed.

Consequently, I hear, Swedish women, very often, take on the role of the pursuer in sexual relationships and make the first move in sex. As a result dating and sex is a lot more easier for men in Sweden. Generally, men can expect to be approached by women for sexual relationships.

To put it in simple words it is a lot more easier for a man to obtain sex.

Do you think this perception is true?

I would really like to know the observation and experiences of people in Sweden, particularly men regarding this. The subject of dating & sexual norms in society interests me a lot. And I read and write about it as well.

Hi iknppss,

I've been doing some research on dating trends in Sweden too. Judging from the names of some dating sites that I came across, such as www.katakvinnor.se - horny women or www.lattfotade.se - easy going women, or at least that's how I would translate it based on the imagery, and the way women are positioned on them, it looks like females as pursuers are a norm. I also registered on these sites just to see if my hypothesis gets confirmed and got bombarded with pretty straightforward offers from women straight away.
