What are SWEDES Really Like?

I ask Swedes on the streets of Gothenburg on what they think is the most true and least true stereotype about Sweden. Are Swedes really rich? Are Swedes as happy as they say? Are Swedes reserved and unfriendly?

I used Envato Elements for graphics and visuals.

  • -"I don't agree with the tall and blonde" - "but , you are tall" - "yes , i used to be blonde" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ this one got me

    • I think there is a missconconception where some people think they are not blond beceause its common in sweden to be born blond but as you get older you get darker and darker hair. until you have like what we call it "rat-grey" or sometimes like for me it is actually brown. But I was totally blond as a child. These people should probably be called blond because that is how they started.

  • Love it. Generally found the same thing in Sweden. Can't visit for a short time because of the social circles but that said if you can make friends in Sweden, things open up but you can say that about most countries. Major advantage is that most Swedes speak English.

  • Looking from here I realize that the height stereotype is not a stereotype, it is the pure truth, even women too, they seem to be my height (5'9 / 174-175 cm, yes, I'm short guy) or even bigger , introverts, don't talk much, look for "Fika", hate the weather, etc.๐Ÿ˜‚

  • Swedes seem like my kind of people! ๐Ÿ’ž from a non-confrontational, extroverted, punctual (!!!) southern European!

  • They say "we aren't blonde" and mostly i saw is blonde hair ๐Ÿ˜‚ , they say "we aren't introvert" and mostly said they don't like to talk especially with strangers ๐Ÿ˜‚ , they say "we aren't tall" when the "shortest" guy i saw is probably 5'11 / 180-181 cms ๐Ÿ˜‚

    • Yet they have been importing conflict into their country for a few decades now. Ever since Olaf Palmer was PM. They have also sponsored a number of marxist terrorist organizations in both South America and Africa since the 70's. I lived in Sweden for awhile and hypocrisy is also a very big Swedish trait.

  • Lagom=mellan mjรถlk ...๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ i love this extra attention to sweden , its like the moon
