Do Norwegians Want to Date a Local or Foreigner?
Ойын-сауық
Norwegians are known for their reserved nature and colder temperament. Men and women are equal, so as a woman you shouldn't expect the man to open the doors and paying for your meals. So.. how do Norwegians feel about this? Would they rather date someone from their own culture or do they prefer the exotic factor of the foreigners?

It’s a nice tactic to show the world. It’s something psychopaths like norwegians do to gain the respect of others because they care deeply of what others(rest of the world) think of them. But what brevik(mass killer from 2011)said is in everyone’s mind in the end. And that’s the reality.

I am mixed race from the northern part of Norway where we are considered more rustic and open. This was a fun video and it's good to have some self distance and be honest with your culture. It always comes down to personality and yes the editing was class. Yes, some of my Norwegian bros do need the alcohol to open up. Once you're friends with a Norwegian, Finn or a Swede then they are friends for life.
Love your channel!! Keep up the great work you’re a rockstar!! 😎
Loved it. Can't believe they are not joking (I thought about it in the Face and Instagram vids). It bring tears to my eyes· What I knew is that some Norwegian women were having this trend to date and marry African people (pity I don't remember the name of the doc - about 5 africans in a bar how did they make it there). But if the girls there enjoy dating foreigners, maybe I will try it there.

Hey Marina! Really like this format where u interview random people. Plus they better represent the local views on certain topics since they are (usually) born and raised there. I do have a couple question suggestions that i'd like to u to ask in this vlog series. What are their opinions on cheating/promiscuity, what is their ideal type of ''dating'' like married+children/cohabitation/single4life and what do they think about feminism and the whole woke culture?

This is just wanting to give off the right answers to the camera. Despite all the continuous propaganda the vast majority of Norwegians choose Norwegian partners. Not counting other scandinavian nationalities you couldn't visually tell apart, the most mixed couples you will see here is older men and Thai/Filipino women.

Northern Europeans are some of the tallest and typically strongest people on earth. There's a reason why almost all of the world's strongest men come from Scandinavia, Iceland, England, Scotland, Ireland, Ukraine or from their descendents in North America. It's just a genetic thing and likely stems also from climate and diet. It's the same reason why the majority of the fastest sprinters in the world tend to be of West African descent. And why the best long-distance runners are very often of East African descent. Different environments influence local populations in different ways. Obviously there are always exceptions. Scandinavians also in general tend to have healthier diets and exercise more than people in other places.

the girl at 1:38 is another proof that no matter how emancipated a country is in regards to women's right ( being self reliant, self sufficient,independent and generally not approving of romanti /generous acts like a guy paying for them because that would go against their cultural norms) there will still be this need or maybe want to want to be spoiled by a guy. there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, i still appreciate when a guy is a gentleman and goes out his way to impress but surely that must be reciprocated with respect and lady like attitude

It only means that some women would appreciate it. I think that the most important thing is to find the person that is more compatible to your style of dating.
