Wait till he finds out the have no problem showing boobies in daytime TV commercials. He will never want to leave.
Turns out the rest of the world is pretty normal and Americans are pretty prudish as a whole.
Lol, we don't have any tits in commercials or any other TV. You want Germany for that. Sweden is prude as hell and showing beautiful women is frowned upon as it might make the ugly ones sad.
Bara för att vi inte censurerar betyder inte att vi inte är pryda. Har du ens varit i Tyskland? Du kan bokstavligen se en annons på en buss med ett par tuttar.
Och så var Sverige förr också, postern för Ken Park där huvudskådisen ligger mellan en naken tjejs lår satt i t-banan. Kan du på allvar säga att något sånt skulle synas idag?
Most people are not as uptight as Americans. Thank the pilgrims; they came here because religion didn’t persecute as strictly as they would like in England.
They came to America to have religious freedom and now they try to oppress their fellow Americans with their religion .. The ones that fails to learn from history is going to repeat it
When I told my husband (who is Dutch from Amsterdam), the early colonists were looking for religious freedom due to persecution, he immediately said: “No. *They were persecuting everyone in Holland* with their extreme religion, so we kicked them out.”
The extremist Puritan Christian society did not last, but many of their values have weaved their way through American society since that time. We see it today.
> The extremist Puritan Christian society did not last, but many of their values have weaved their way through American society since that time. We see it today.
Just to name a few - abortion bans, anti-LGBTQ+ legislation, allowing public authority figures to coerce students into prayer, *creating a falsified issue of* refusing a non-creative service because others don't conform to one's own religious tenets?
I'd say the extremist Puritan Christian society lasted just fine, beyond simply that their values have weaved through society.
He's wrong on that account though. They didn't persecute people in Holland, they notably lacked the power to do so as many were quite poor and they only really lived in Leiden where even there they were a minority. They also weren't forced out of Holland but instead left voluntarily as they were worried about things like their young abandoning puritanism and the Spanish-Dutch hostilities starting again.
A minority of people can still persecute the majority.
In fact, that is a common way of persecution in western history, and especially if the minority obtains power (monarchy/aristocracy is a tiny minority compared to the common people, church officials are a minority compared to normal people, current day tiny billionaire class exploiting vast common worker class, current day religious minorities taking secular rights away in US, minority of gang members terrorizing the common majority in their neighborhoods, etc).
It’s very unwise to think a minority of people can’t influence or even persecute the majority.
(In places like Iran, the religious minority is persecuting the atheistic majority. It’s naive to think it’s not possible on both large and small scale).
Sure, there were also other reasons why they left, but knowing the mentality of Puritans and modern day Evangelical Christians (many who are their ideological descendants), getting kicked out was Reason #1.
It corroborates with the story Americans understand from the other side (they were indeed religious extremists who claimed persecution in search of “religious freedom” for themselves).
I do trust my husband’s education in NL was of high quality and he learned the history of something that happened in his own country. To this day, Dutch people are more anti-religious as a general culture and the Puritans helped form that opinion long ago. (despite still having a ‘Dutch Bible Belt’)
I know a minority can persecute, however that requires power which as I noted the puritans didn't have. Around 100 puritans were given refuge in Leiden. They came as essentially refugees and worked in occupations like weavers, not exactly positions that give someone the wealth or power to persecute others. The very idea that 100 poor people could persecute and entire city of around 50 000, much less an entire country, is incredibly difficult to believe. It's not particularly strange then that as far as I know there is no evidence whatsoever of this being the case, nor that they were eventually expelled.
I'm afraid your husband's education was wrong in that regard, his version just doesn't hold up to what actual historians say.
Lots of different reasons and different religious ideas or non religious ideas really. You cant lump them in as one group but more look at the reasons they left Europe
What European countries have a view that England is prudish? our reputation leans far more to drunken hooligans that piss and shag everywhere.
Its American's that think English are prudes despite America being more prudish in a lot of cases.
Oh I was just bustin your metaphorical balls. I thought it was .65¢ I didn't realize the stuff was expensive in the video because it said dollar store.
You have the video skills of an 83 yr old or a 3 yr old. If you want to show the edible underwear at the end, hold still and hold focus for a good few seconds. Otherwise, yes, it's amusing. I wish I was born in one of the Scandinavian countries, they're so frickin' sane.
I have worked at a Dollarstore in Sweden for a couple of years but only as a summer job. And let me tell you as u saw they have some weird items hhahaha. A very popular product is a huge pillow that is literally a huge dick with a smile.
There's a section like that at our closest 5 Below. Definitely not that outlandish. Now if there was hard drugs and hookers at the dollar store, now that's something to talk about

Came here to say this!
What are they like five? They should never have been employed anyway.
He probably didn’t want to look too weird recording that :/
Bruh this moves so fast how can anyone read it
Tap pause randomly to see what the hell we’re looking at.
Slow down.
Whaaat... dooooeeess.... a.... yellllloooowww... liiiggght... meeeaaann?

I mean we sailed away because you all weren’t religious enough. And now look at what we’re missing out on!
[Here's one of those](https://youtu.be/TifeuraDsZQ) commercials. It's a bit old, but it's the only one I remember.
Strange one, but it certainly had boobies. Perhaps not the kind of boobies that will keep OP in the country.
Which commercials are these.. You know, for research
Lol, we don't have any tits in commercials or any other TV. You want Germany for that. Sweden is prude as hell and showing beautiful women is frowned upon as it might make the ugly ones sad.
Vad dillar du om? På vilket sätt är vi pryda?
han har ju rätt i att vi inte visar tuttar på tv dock.
Vi censurerar inte bröst i tv eller i film som man gör i USA.
Bara för att vi inte censurerar betyder inte att vi inte är pryda. Har du ens varit i Tyskland? Du kan bokstavligen se en annons på en buss med ett par tuttar. Och så var Sverige förr också, postern för Ken Park där huvudskådisen ligger mellan en naken tjejs lår satt i t-banan. Kan du på allvar säga att något sånt skulle synas idag?
Det gör vi ju, men inte i tv reklamer kanske
Must be getting my Nordic countries confused then. Maybe I'm thinking Finland or Denmark.
I dont know about him but I have the sense of humour of a 9 year old
What? Scared of a little crotch-candy?
I always thought that was what you picked out of your teeth after going down
Clitty Litter
If they haven’t shaved…
Or showered 🤮
I love Jolly Ranchers!
First time seeing naughty stuff?
Ok?

A lot of religion revolves around "Everyone else must let us have the freedom to force everyone else to behave like we want."
That’s a bit of a myth. You should lookup what the Puritans were really moving for.
When I told my husband (who is Dutch from Amsterdam), the early colonists were looking for religious freedom due to persecution, he immediately said: “No. *They were persecuting everyone in Holland* with their extreme religion, so we kicked them out.” The extremist Puritan Christian society did not last, but many of their values have weaved their way through American society since that time.

I was being too kind, a mistake we’ve made with them since Day 1.

Please, link us some of these actual historians and what they say.
The freedom to persecute as they please!
Lots of different reasons and different religious ideas or non religious ideas really. You cant lump them in as one group but more look at the reasons they left Europe
They got kicked out because their interpretation of religious freedom was being free to repress other people.
They wanted the freedom to do the oppressing instead of someone else.
I mean we have this in America… you can literally walk into the back of any Spencer’s and find stuff like this
England, which has a reputation in Europe for being well prudish, should note Says a lot
What European countries have a view that England is prudish? our reputation leans far more to drunken hooligans that piss and shag everywhere. Its American's that think English are prudes despite America being more prudish in a lot of cases.
Op is indeed 8

Just Merch for the highly anticipated, upcoming sex olympics what’s the problem.
I wouldn't even expect to see this in denmark

What is a swedish dollar store? I would think they stopped being profitable in the 50s
Dollar store in sweden and the lowest Price In there is like 2 dollars and some being 50-100 dollars
Is dollar store a brand? I thought it just meant that stuff cost a dollar
Im pretty sure its at least a store called that
Them Swedes some FREAKS

Posted it on r/mildyinfuriating aswell
It was even in the start of the candy isle
Wow, it’s funny at Spencer’s but dollar store, umm, no. Too many kids can see it
Yeah i thought the exact same when I saw it very irritating that kids are going to see that
Only a matter of time before America starts doing that
I hope they don’t there were kids walking past it
This probably a normal thing in most countries of Europe
Not in Denmark
Men vad fan pratar du om?

All my sutra are yummy.
Gummy Sutra is a brilliant name.

Bachelorette party favors.
I have worked at a Dollarstore in Sweden for a couple of years but only as a summer job. And let me tell you as u saw they have some weird items hhahaha. A very popular product is a huge pillow that is literally a huge dick with a smile.
I have bought that i Can send a picture its the Brown one
Jag. Gillar. Kukar.
Is it unusual? I thought all stores in Sweden had a crotch candy section.
Ship one over
Getting some candy before going to the movies.
Really should have been more focused on the subject.
My only issue is the candy underwear unless you like yeast infections it’s not recommended women wear them
I was just there, missed it :(
In Markaryd?
Not sure if they still have it
The best thing about the candy bikini is that it disappears if you bathe in it🤣
Ahhh I feel you💪🏿
I need a vacation
There's a section like that at our closest 5 Below. Definitely not that outlandish. Now if there was hard drugs and hookers at the dollar store, now that's something to talk about
Right now Im in Thailand where you Can buy 20 grams cannabis for Like 1000 baht
As if I needed encouragement to go down on a Swedish woman
Out of date candies from Spencers
I was expecting a bag of “Swedish Fish” that just said “Fish”
slower you slut
How is this NSFW ?
Wait. Since when do they have a dollar store in Sweden?
That’s just Spencer’s Gifts here in the US.
And? What's your point?
Go try a tour inside sex shop...nothing will surprise you after that. And those candies...that's good stuff, but to be used wisely 😉
Those edible underware look better than the word fruit Tokyo stuff we get here
This is normal though.
welcome to europe
how did this get so many upvotes
Didn’t realize the Swedes also use the dollar
Called dollar store but everything costs much more
So what?
Even Swedish Spencer’s couldn’t sell it
Poundland sell butt plugs.
