Yep

The Nurses who do births in my country have been quite positive about millenial fathers and in particular the ethnically Swedish millenial fathers.

Same thing in the local parks where i live its about 50/50 and during some periods majority fathers with their kids in the park.

“Ethnically Swedish” 💀

Im of course referring to the tendency of middle eastern men in particular to refuse to change diapers of small children at all or to take paternity leave even back when that peternity leave is lost if not used by the father.

I looked it up and 4.5% of the Swedish population is from the Middle East, maybe I misunderstood something but doesn't it seem a little odd for nurses to randomly comment on 4.5% of the population?

now look at the children per capita. 20% of children born in sweeden recently were to immigrants. Thats pretty wild if theyre actually 4.5% of the pop

Middle Easterners are not 100% of the immigrant population

Just the vast majority of it over the last 15 years. But sure

Factually wrong, don't get all "but sure" with me, Redditor

"immigrants" or "immigrants from the Middle East"? 20% would refer to all children born to all immigrants. This includes, for an example, white Americans who came to Sweden just as much as it includes people from the Middle East.

It is but she can say this cause she is from Sweden which is „cool” country

She can say it because the Reddit circlejerk agrees Sweden is overrun with brown people

If it’s that noticeable and they’re only 4.5%, I think that tells you all you need to know.

u/Elite_AI Apr 24 '26

That's definitely one way you could interpret it. I'm not convinced
