I don't believe in the girls are beautiful in Sweden. And neither does my male friends. xD But in here Sweden is famous for gay people, no offense though. :3
And bisexuality.
Sweden has the highest percentage of bisexual women in the world.

Ah, I did not know that. That's kinda surprising cos I don't have that many female friends yet majority of them are bisexual. :| So I always thought it's a fifty-fifty between Finland and Sweden.

I think Sweden is mostly known for socialism. Sweden is often held up as a model of how a state or society should be run by people (such as myself) of a left-wing inclination.
Ooh, the red star, eh?
Would I be right in assuming you're a fan of Rage Against the Machine too?
Hells no. Whatever about their politics I can't stand their music.

They aren't socialist. I can't remember the exact term (Social Liberalist, perhaps?), but it's a fair shot away from socialism.
You're thinking of Social Democrat I assume. I'd treat the terms as more or less interchangeable, I think it's obvious when discussing Sweden you're talking about democratic socialism rather than Marxist socialism.

The red star is a socialist/communist symbol that rage against the machine adopted because it fits with the message.

I mean liberal/democratic socialism... characterise by healthcare, excellent pensions scheme and higher taxes for the wealthy etc.... not soviet/markist socilaism.... which is a perversion of thr term anyway.

and I certainly dont mean it in the way an american conservative does, whereby it becomes a word used for evrytthing from Hitler and Stalin tto Jon Stewart.
