Hi JohnB!
Well, the girls are OK in Sweden. The only reason I stay here. In fact, I have a theory about this. Sweden was one of the last countries in Europe to change religion to Christianity, about year 1000. And the vikings were good sailors/traders. In at least two aspect this can result in girls being OK, compared to for instance UK (being Christianed much earlier). One could mary several women and get a good offspring. Slavery was allowed. Thus, one could have several beautiful slave women. Slave trading was allowed. One could keep the best girls and sell the other. Moreover, German nobles (being son number two, three, and so on, not being able to get his fathers land) made up much of the Swedish nobles. Naturally, these boys to a high degree were mistress-products (bringing good looking genes). Well, time will even the odds, and I estimate that Sweden in about 10 generations will be back to average girl standards (but still better than, for instance UK). But who cares about that. Finally, John B, I fully understand your son. Good spelling there, but even better is Goteborg (with two dots over the o).
