The problem with the Swedish Language

I usually don't bother thinking much about my native tongue Swedish but I've always had a strange distaste for it. Recently it hit me that it wasn't the languages structure or grammar that bothered me so much as that it contains a plethora of words that have a very strong negative/vulgar/obscene meaning for some of the most beautiful and pleasurable things in the world.

Take one of the prime examples that really turns me off Swedish: Nipple, in Swedish we have the word Bröstvårta which literally means breast wart (No I'm not lying).. Breast wart, like it's some kind of diseased outgrowth.. I like nipples, I like the word nipple. Really rolls well on the tongue and has a whimsical and happy feel to it. I'm struggling to find a good substitute to it in Swedish but so far turned out blank.

This goes on and on, the words used for different body parts in Swedish are loaded with negative connotations or are just assimilated medical terms with a clinical dryness that takes all the fun and pleasure out of them.

Aureole, in Swedish it's called Vårtgård (sigh...) Wart Yard ( or Wart Farm depending on the translation of the word gård).. Aureole... another word that fits perfectly in the mouth, almost delicious to say and really has that nice feel to it that you associate with Aureoles...

Language envy. Thinking of moving to an English speaking country and rid myself of the heinous linguistic heritage I've come to abhor so much...

Sick of pr0n

Growing sick of pr0n was something I thought I'd never do. But here I am, watching one of the myriads of massproduced humpmovies and I can't for the life of me find it even the slightest bit arousing.

  1. Is the girl goodlooking? Yep, check
  2. Is the guy ordinary enough not to draw attention? Yep, check
  3. Are they doing the standard poses? Yep, check...

Acrobatic sex, modern produced pornography can best be called acrobatic sex, none of the participants looks like they are doing anything but faking their enjoyment of it.

The poses they use are so weird that you can't do anything but think about how painful it must be doing them. Who in their right mind has sex in those ridiculous poses anyway? It sure doesn't feel good doing them, (trust me, I've tried much to her amusement), and it's so bloody uncomfortable that one can't help but wonder: Why do a whole multi billion dollar business devote so much money to make pr0n that is
supposed to be arousing and exciting, fail so miserably?

It's the wierd acrobatic poses, it's the lack of context of the actions, it's simply the lack of realism and that those who actually has some real life experience can plainly see that it just DOESN'T FEEL GOOD. No wonder amateur porn is growing so fast.. At least it's authentic... Well... Up and until they get too much money and they start doing the same mistakes the big producers repeat categorically.

Sick of this shit, why even bother with the crap.. Just glad I'm not wasting any money on it..
