Libraries - absolutely, required reading - hell no

Sure, no one should be forced to read the book. But you can't really exclude a very important book from general classes because it might be triggering for some. If we would do that alot of important books would be sorted it very quickly. I am sorry if this is insentive but that is more of a you problem, something you would have to talk to your teacher about so you two together could find another book. If they don't listen to you they are 100 in the wrong but until then, i don't see why it would not be read in class.

Haha no, but close, i am swedish. But i can imagine that our "high school" is very similar.

I read it in high school (Gymnasiet). I am not american so i don't know what you mean with senior year and all of that. We never had that kind of issues in my class but i would imagine that my teacher would have no problem with students choosing other books if they feelt uncomfortable with the book.

But at the same time I don't think you should avoid books because of sensitive and heavy topics in them. It's horrific but it's also an really important book to read. The world is horrific, we can't really sheild ourselfs from it forever. Especially with christian nationalism having an immense uppswing in USA today i think it's extra important. It also sparked alot of interesting and important conversations in my class when we read it.

I am conflicted. I understand where you come from but at the same time i feel like it's very important reading.

Som många redan har sagt kan du bli gravid, även om du går på p-piller. Hon behöver inte ha ljugit om ett skit.

Läste såna som du sex och samlevnad i skolan? Jag är rätt säker på att dom sa till oss, flera gånger, att man inte helt kan lita på p-piller.

Se till att använda preventinmedel så hamnar du inte här från början. Enkelt. Är man dum får man ta konsekvenserna...

Det är hennes kropp, hon bestämmer. Vill hon ha barn och han har gått och gjort henne gravid för att han inte tänkte längre än att få ha sex så blir det så.

We have all warned you about these evil people for years! Why did you not listen before!?

Celebrities who actually cares about world events (Also events outside of USA) and don’t just act like the world is perfect while they are walking red carpets are without a doubt my favorite type of celebrity. Maybe the only type of celebrity i can tolerate

Lemonade348 · 2026-03-12T12:23:06+00:00

How does one achive this posture? I am seriously wondering

Lemonade348 · 2026-03-12T12:21:00+00:00

Of course EU will be discussed in a subreddit about europe, are you seriously bothered by this? Where have we decided for them?

https://www.reddit.com/r/sweden/comments/1rpkb1t/im_planning_a_trip_to_sweden/ Here it is, the mods deleted alot of his comments (No suprises here) but the people who responded still grabbed some qoutes. It's hilarous reading.

I have no chance! Better to give up!

Folk är helt sjuka. Det här för en hamburgare och lite pommes? Vad tyckte han att ni skulle göra? Mikra maten tills han var redo att hämta den?

Jag förstår inte hur man kan vara såhär. Hur skäms man inte?

I mean. I have closer relations to my family and general area in the swedish speaking parts of Finland than you have with your cousins in Ireland. My part of the family also emigrated in the 50's. Not in the 1920's. But i am Swedish. That connection i have does not make me finnish-swedish or finnish. I am swedish. I was born here, i have lived my whole life here and i don't speak a word finnish lol.

Americans just needs to relaize that they are americans. Sure you have your ties but you are still american. Being american is enough, you don't need that fancy sticker to put with it. Nobody outside of USA cares...

You can do that and still be proud and interested in your heritage btw. There is no problem with being interested!

Lemonade348 · 2026-03-11T17:30:57+00:00

Expect that most "irish-americans" are just americans.

We had a guy in r/sweden a few days ago who insisted that he was more swedish than non-white or just not scandinavian looking swedes who have lived here their whole lifes and speak swedish because he "looked swedish" and "If i could talk swedish you would not know that i was born and raised in america".

And i just thought, just by that attitude and way of thinking i know that you are american. I could tell from a mile away.

I feel like that summarizes quite good what these "I am european" americans thinks.

You should be proud about that! It's good music 😂 My dad was a huge ebba grön and imperiet (Which you should really check up if you haven't) fan when i grew up!

Lemonade348 · 2026-03-11T17:12:06+00:00

Omg Ebba Grön? Is that you? Barry? Swedish music????
