Weekly World News: "Best reporting on the planet."
Sweden is a very different kind of place.
This smacks of Scott Ott.
Parody.
ABOUT BLOODY TIME.
Damn.
This isn't serious, is it?
Sweden may very well have decriminalized looking up skirts, but the rest of the article is obvious fiction :-).
I suppose if I ever go to Sweden, I'll have cosmetic surgeons agog over my stretch marks and varicose veins, following me about with Kroner-signs in their eyes.
Aruba is OUT and Sweden is IN!!!!
I'm sure you have some comments. ;-)
"ABOUT BLOODY TIME"
I am in complete agreement but take your vacation to Stockholm now because in 1, at most 2 generations the typical Swedish lass will be wearing a burkha.
We'll send Helen Thomas over to do some on the scene reporting. That will take care of things...

HOW TO GET WOMEN TO PAY ON DATES!
Guys, are you sick and tired of taking out freeloading women on dates? Ever wish you could get THEM to foot the bill? Well, you can, if you follow the advice of Mason Gray, author of the upcoming book, Check Mate: How to Get Your Date to Pick up The Check.
Among Gray's suggestions to get women to pull their weight:
* Tell them you're a Nigerian prince and you have a fortune to give them, but you need a sign that they're sincere, like paying the bill. "The guy on the Internet has been getting away with this one for years. No reason it can't work in person, too."
* When the check arrives, go to the bathroom. "This is the oldest trick in the female arsenal. But you can use it, too. Just make sure to excuse yourself before she does. Then stay in the bathroom a long, long time." At some point, she'll feel pressured to pay the bill. "Or, if you don't want to see her again, just leave."
* Program your cell phone to ring during dinner. Then, in a sad voice, just loud enough for her to hear, pretend you're talking to your ex-wife and say, "What? Little Jimmy got hit by a car? We're not insured? The hospital bills are HOW MUCH? I guess I'll have to take a third job." Your date will not only feel bad enough to pay the check, she'll probably console you in bed, too.
The writer definitely has a good understanding of the very essence of Swedish culture ~ even though most of this article is totally BS.
If I should travel to Sweden one day, I will remember NOT to wear a skirt. :P
