From what I have seen there are indeed similarities, I would understand a word or two occasionally. Often the words have different meanings - I have borrowed this CD and one of the sentences was "jag riser ensam" which is translated "I travel alone". however "ensam" would be "einsam" in German, which would mean "lonely". I found that quite interesting.
Norral!!! come to Europe. I mean it. Maybe your company could relocate you? It would be awesome to have you around the corner.

We try to make it fit into the box it should be in (between happily married couples only!) so it may be fearfully controlled. But amazingly, at the same time, it's glamorized in movies and television shows, and as norral says, advertisements. Education on the subject and how to approach it naturally and responsibly is, as norral says, severely lacking...
Do you think that is still a part of the US's puritan heritage?
