Unfortunately, believe it or not, my experience in Brazil has been exactly the same. I hate hook up culture
Interesting. We are making our next videos in Brazil and I was really curious to get the perspective on this since I saw a recent study about it
@@DatingBeyondBorders If you come to São Paulo and want to hear the perspective from a local about it, I'll be honoured to help :)
But with mostly fat pigs instead of toned good looking girls 🐖🐖😂
I think Brazil is different in the sense that there is always a judmental thing about women who are "too easy" or a man who hit every girl. Body count is a subconcious concern for many people,just like in US.
@@wagner9527 It might be something exclusive from where I live, but body count has never been an issue or a subject that we (me and my friends) talk about. No one ever asks “what’s your body count?”.
I’ve went in quite a lot of dates during the last 2 years and sex in the first date has been the norm to a point that if it doesn’t happen, it’s just strange. Dating casually in São Paulo has been quite easy, but it seems that everybody’s having commitment issues lately. At least, that’s a some of what I’ve been experiencing (I’m a 26 year old man).
Great video. I'd love the dutch version too!🤞🏾
Swedes cant talk to each other sober during the day, of course its difficult.
Unless it is about work or the weather
hhahaaha well I am sapiosexual and Talk a lot, NEVER drunk :D
Swedish women are gorgeous but nobody wants to date them the feminist mindset is quite disturbed
wow I am finding this to surprising. I live in on Australia and have met many swedes here and wouldnt have thought this. Maybe once they leave they lose their inhibitions
If you think dating is bad now, just wait.
Yep, it's getting worse by the minute. Thanks OLD!
It's a natural rubberband effect. Our culture gave people more freedom so now people are exploring freedom. When they get fed up and it starts being really problematic....people will be interested in a middle term again (no, not the old school way of things.......which people also try to shove down each others' throats as a solution).
@jeanjacqueslundi3502 looking at some bloggers in their 20s, I think it already started to happen
@@walkingwith_dinosaurs what do you mean ?
@@marvin2678 look up Patience Xina, she's not woke
i met my wife from east europe while we were both studying in sweden, safe to say as soon as we graduated and received job offers outside sweden we packed our bags and moved as quickly as possible
smart man, seems like that place is a hell hole.
Good decision. Staying away from the western world itself would be ideal if you plan to raise a family and children with morals.
where did you go? Germany?😂
nope Netherlands 😊
@@zainulabdin1720 what do you mean?
Couldn't agree more Marina. We have certainly lost our way. No one disagrees with freedom of choice and autonomy but always be careful what you wish for. If everything is approached with such a casual take it or leave it attitude then everything has no depth or value. So many lonely people in society pretending they are happy.
Dating apps,whilst championed and enjoyed by millions,have ushered in an age of people who simply don't know how to act or behave with each other in the real world. If you treat people as a shallow commodity to be swiped,it's gonna lead to problems.
Exactly!
sex is not the problem, the problem is the misandrism, hating men, that is rampant nowadays in lot of countries. I noticed that the more misandrism, more a society is degraded, if females hate men, how can a society function healthy and prosperous? Nowadays females just use men for their sexual needs and throw away and hate them, don't want to be submissive and this is the problem.
I disagree with freedom of choice and autonomy. It's actually easy and everyone should do it.
Very well said.
"be careful what you wish for" I couldn't care less tbh, having freedom and options in other areas of life is more enjoyable and healthy than dating in a certain way.
Shout out to the dad for supporting his daughter! :D
Haha will send him your love
Living in Norway,its really similar culture
Same in Denmark.

lso in Finland@@Mantos777
I have lived in Sweden for 10 years. I have basically no interest in Swedes now. True story.
Me with the Netherlands🤣
Likewise I'm sure....
Good for you to know your own mind - but does that not mean it is time to ditch Sweden and move on to greener pastures, to where the "natives" are more interesting?
Indeed.@@Halli50
@@Halli50 Excellent point. Exactly what I'll be doing this year.
I think the problem is that people don't even know why they go into partnerships. Like if it's meaningless, what's the point of being together? And so most people want to feel something is real when they are together. So that's why hookup culture has come to the state it is nowadays.
I really agree. It's not just about having too many options, it's about lack of internal direction or vision. People don't know how to deeply, sincerely want things anymore.
@@vattenflick When everything can essentially be given to you at a click of a button, a lot of drive and motivation kinda vanish. Our brains aren't built for the societies we live in. Things are so much harder because of the abundence rather than the lack of abundance.
