specifically go to interact, and even then they tend

So, What Else Should You Know?
UNDERSTANDING SWEDES AND SEX
Let's get real here... there's no need to play games.

If a Swedish woman likes you, she will have little issues with taking you home the first

night. Swedes are raised with the belief that sex is a natural, positive expression of

your body and should be enjoyed to the max. If they want it - they go after it.

Or to stress out on "impressing her".

You won’t have to seduce her into it by promising her an amazing view from your

apartment or some expensive bottle of wine you kept in the fridge for a year for such

an occasion.

Also don't assume that having sex, she wants commitment.

Swedish women don’t hold back on sex just to secure commitment. is known for its

one night stands. In fact, relationships often begin with a series of hook ups. But the

night might just end in her walking you to the door and kissing you goodbye. No

contacts exchanged.

First Date Tip?


If you do make it on a first date, avoid a fancy first

date. Keep it laid back.

Drink in a bar?

Fika (coffee)?

Stroll around the park?

On Gender Equality
Swedish women are feminist and they strongly value their place in society.

The culture also prioritizes self-sufficiency. So while some Swedish women might

appreciate you paying, many will fight to cover the bill themselves. They don’t want to

feel like they are indebted to you in any way.

They also dislike the “macho” approach.

If you want to pay, do it, but let her know it is because you want to be a gentleman and

as mentioned before, let her get the next one. Don't bother trying to push the whole

"provider vibe" to her. She has her own money- and will spend it how she wants.
The Swedish "Personal Bubble"

Some things to keep in mind


when getting to know her...

In the first stages of dating especially, you will see

that the Swedish women like to keep their distance.

Texting her too much, calling her, and wanting to

see her too often will scare her right out of wanting

a relationship. Keeping your distance is the Scandi

way.

If you are an especially affectionate type, keep in

mind that Swedish women will feel weird about

holding your hand or kissing in a public place. There

is a discomfort around public displays of affection

here. Being impulsive or expressive are traits that

are not understood much by Swedes. Having self-

control is where it’s at.

Overall:
If you want to date a Swedish woman, recognize that you will

Always remember:
be with someone who is highly self-sufficient. She is someone

who prizes her independence, and who wants an equal

partner to walk side by side with her.

stand for gender equality. She will never expect you to buy

her expensive gifts or to surprise her with grand gestures. She

will, however, expect you to split your chores down the

middle.

Swedes are highly independent and expect the same of their partners.

BRAZILIAN WOMAN 🇧🇷

HOW TO MEET HER


It’s incredibly easy to meet people (and women) in

Brazil. Brazilians are highly social so starting a

conversation in a bar or at a club is surprisingly simple,

but you can also do it at a coffee shop or the beach.

How will you know she's actually keen?
Brazilian women will give you a ‘green light’ if they are

into you (smiling, looking at you) but will doubtfully

approach you first. Thankfully most are easy to approach.

They will be friendly and open to chatting. Dont get

cocky though- Brazilian women are friendly to everyone,

even if they're not that into you.

RUSSIAN WOMAN 🇷🇺
There are many stereotypes regarding Russian women.

"They are superficial and like expensive things"

"They just want a rich oligarch with money."

"They are plastic and fake."

"They expect the man to do all the work".

There are certainly women like that. But you can identify them fast: if you are meeting women in

prestigious clubs, if they are suggesting your dates take place in the priciest venues, if you are

paying through your nose time and time again, you can guarantee you are dating one of these

women. However, use your common sense here!

From Russia with Love...


Here's your checklist- and yes it takes more than
money - to win over your Russian Woman:
Are you assertive and a leader?

Can you plan a date?

Book a nice restaurant?

Pick her up and drop her off at night?

So if you've got the basics covered... but what about the


real stuff?

Can you be her strong shoulder in times of need?

Can you support her in times of need?

Can you solve a problem for her?

If a problem occurs, can you step in?

Are you financially stable (a kind of no-brainer)?

Are you serious and mature with your intentions?

If you don't think you can manage these expectations then believe me, Russian women
will find someone who can!

What Else Should You Know?
Japan and Sex
They officially have an aging population majority.

Every year, Japan's population gets older and older. As of

2020 28% of Japan is over the age of 65 and only 12%

percent are younger than 14. That means the dating pool has

gotten, smaller and smaller.

Online and speed dating is how most people meet their

partners- and it is often paid for by government.

This matchmaking industry is worth 62 billion yen or roughly

(500,000 USD) so that Japan's young people get married-

and have babies.

Japanese people are less interested in sex and more in

partnership.

The reality is with Japan and dating is complicated. Long

work hours, high pressure social norms, and a gender paygap

mean that sex and dating is probably the last thing on their

minds.

DATING IN UK IS ALL ABOUT THE BANTER

Now, what is "banter"? Let me explain.
