The state of Sweden is located on the northern peninsula of Scandinavia. It is inhabited by beautiful people. These are the Swedes, whose appearance many delight. And this statement has very real evidence. The appearance of the Swedish men is considered the most attractive among representatives of other nationalities. Do not believe? Meanwhile, in 2012, the international company Travelers Digest compiled a rating of countries where the most beautiful representatives of the strong half of humanity live. Among the first were exactly the Swedes.
Appearance of a man: a description of national traits
The Scandinavians belong to the Caucasian race. Therefore, the appearance of the Swedes differs little from that of the British, Germans, Slavs, and so on. They have regular facial features, a straight straight nose, medium-sized ears, lips and eyes. Growth is usually slightly above average. But quite tall people are often met, because it was from Scandinavia that there were the very Vikings about whom legends still circulate.
But it is worth pointing out the national features that distinguish precisely the Swedes. These people usually have fair skin. The appearance of the Swedes is also characterized by fair hair and blue or gray eyes, like most northerners.
Today it’s hard to talk about a clean nation. Even if “Swede” is indicated in the metric, there is no guarantee that the genotype is fully consistent with what is written. Perhaps mom on the passport was Swedish, and dad was a native of the United States. And mom took her nationality thanks to her dad, who was only 25% Swede. Therefore, all reflections on what the appearance of the Swedes are in the modern world are only conclusions drawn from subjective impressions.
Handsome … Perhaps he is a Swede?
Most women find representatives of a strong half of humanity, whose passports have the entry “Swede”, very attractive. Some even take responsibility, claiming that a third of all men could become world famous by becoming models. Why are Swedes so attracted to ladies?
The appearance of a man of this nationality is quite average. Most of them are blond or light brown with greenish, blue or gray eyes. If we compare their average growth with the parameters of representatives of other nationalities, then it will have a slightly greater significance. And according to statistics, tall blondes have a higher rating in the female perception of male beauty.
But not only the innate traits attract Swedes. The appearance of a man depends on grooming, physical fitness. So, the Swedes pay special attention to her. Almost everyone goes in for sports, they have a slender, slim body. Of course, among them come across flabby and untidy people. But this is rather the exception. Therefore, Swedish men are so attractive in the eyes of women.
Appearance, the description of which was given above, almost always corresponds to fashion trends. Most of them have a stylish hairstyle, wear branded clothes and shoes. Although you should not be surprised to see young people in ordinary clothes among the Swedes, but quite attractive. Neatness and accuracy in the appearance is an integral national feature.
Next, we look at specific examples of what the representatives of the northern nation look like.
Swedish Prince Carl Philip
This globally recognized handsome man has no typical appearance at all. Swedes, as we have already mentioned, are usually represented by fair-haired handsome men. He is far from blond and not even blond. However, this did not prevent him from being included in Forbes magazine in 2008 in the list of twenty most enviable young grooms and brides, in whose veins royal blood flows.
Subtle aristocratic facial features, a beautiful proud posture and truly royal become - well, how can one doubt his belonging to the upper world?
Marcus Helner
Many Swedes have made a career in sports. Such is Marcus Hölner. In the 2010 and 2014 Olympic Games he was a relay champion. In 2010, Marcus also won the title of champion in skiathlon. And at the Olympics in 2014, he was awarded with this kind of only a silver medal.
It is clear that many female hearts fell at the athlete's feet. But it cannot be said that this handsome man has a typical Swedes appearance. He has brown hair with a redhead and brown eyes. Perhaps redness is the highlight in his appearance, which so attracts his eyes. Or his athletic physique, which is also important.
Henrik Lundqvist
The hockey goalkeeper has such a charm that only because of this the Swedes should be proud of them. Appearance - the photo perfectly conveys his charm and attracts the eyes of ladies of different ages - this athlete can be called the standard of male beauty.
It is not surprising that the goalkeeper “lit up” as an actor. His incredibly sexy commercial promoting Head & Shoulders brand shampoo is world famous.
Dolph (Hans) Lundgren
This representative of a strong half of humanity is rightfully proud of everyone in Sweden - both ladies and men-Swedes. Appearance (photo published below) Lundgren is the most typical for this nationality. A tall blond just five centimeters does not reach two meters. His addition can only be envied. Since childhood, Dolph has been involved in contact wrestling. The athlete achieved special achievements in karate and bodybuilding.
Beauty and intelligence, according to the majority, rarely belong to one person. This incredible case takes place when it comes to Lundgren. After serving in the Marine Corps with the rank of corporal, Dolph entered the Stockholm Royal Institute of Technology, which he successfully graduated with a bachelor's degree.
A career in cinema was not long in coming. A global sex symbol is not only a famous actor, but also a producer, screenwriter and film director. He will be 60 years old in November 2017. But this does not prevent him to this day from remaining one of the most attractive men in the world, to excite the imagination of ladies and to appear in erotic dreams.
Peter Stormare
The track record of the famous actor is quite long. After eleven years of service at the Royal Drama Theater, he became a movie star, starting his career in this field in 1982 with a small role in the film "Fanny and Alexander." Then the real glory awaited him. In 1996, Stormare played a criminal element in the Coen Brothers movie called Fargo.
An interesting fact in the film biography is his role as the Russian cosmonaut Lev Andropov in the film Armageddon. This once again indicates that the national features of the Swedes practically do not differ from those of the Russians and other representatives of the Caucasian race.
Alexander Skarsgård
First, Alexander’s father, a veteran in the cinema of Stellan Skarsgård, earned fame. And not only in the acting field. His second remarkable feature is the subtle aristocratic beauty, which he endowed with his offspring. Each of his son is a real sex symbol due to his physique and high growth under two meters, blue eyes, beautiful fair hair, regular features and charm. Yes, here they are - real "thoroughbred" Swedes! The appearance of the photo can convey, but the inner beauty, fortitude, confidence and calm?
Interesting can be called the fact that the first success came to Alexander with a tiny role as an idiot fashion model. It was the comedy The Model Male, where appearance and sex appeal, attractive appearance and a slender figure played a special role, that made the handsome Skarsgord popular.
Are all Swedes beautiful and slim?
If it seems to someone that only slender and lean people with the right facial features live in Sweden, then they should be sent to the famous work by Astrid Lindgren. One of the main characters of the tale is Carlson. And his appearance is not at all a demonstration of the true national features of the male appearance that were mentioned above.
Carlson is short, quite well-fed, even pot-bellied. Having looked at the illustrations for the work drawn by the Swedish artist Ilun Wikland, we can conclude that the man’s face with the propeller did not differ in the beauty in the sense in which contemporaries used to understand it. A fleshy large nose, a drooping chin, a large head of irregular shape - this is how the illustrator depicts a character.
Without diminishing the merits of most of the Swedish male population, one can nevertheless draw certain conclusions. Not all Swedish men have natural face beauty and slim figure. And men are judged in the country, not only according to external data. Indeed, almost all the people of the world are impressed by the funny and funny Carlson, whom Astrid Lindgren so skillfully described and painted by Ilun Wickland. Although handsome in full bloom, except for Carlson himself, no one considered him.
The famous Swede, who can hardly be called beauty
The same tale destroys the belief in the postulate that all women who were born in Sweden are charming and slim. Froken Hildur Bock, perhaps, inherited only one national trait of the Swedes. She is tall. But its heaviness negates the attractiveness of the figure. A double or even a triple chin, small, deep-set eyes can hardly be attributed to the traits that evoke admiration of others.
In the story there is a mention of the appearance of the sister Hildur Bock - Fried. Trying to seduce an old maid, apartment thief Fille with humor weighed her a compliment about the "nose", which is good in any weather. So this character is not particularly attractive.
Like all writers, Astrid has the right to fiction. But most often, the authors themselves give descriptions in accordance with what they see around them. That is, the writer would not invent ugly sisters and an absurd fat man, if it were impossible to meet people in something outwardly similar to them in the country.
But still…
Scandinavian beauty Elsa Hosk
Girls of the North Caucasian race have always attracted attention with their tenderness and charm. Swedes can be proud of so many beauties. The girl’s appearance, the description of which corresponds to the attached photo, is typically Swedish: huge blue eyes, a chiseled nose, blond hair. Of course, the blonde's eyebrows slightly tint, but only the hairs themselves. “Minimum makeup! Elegance and natural charm! ”- this is how the Swedes formulate their attitude to the female face.
The appearance of the girl - top models - is truly beautiful. And the reason is not only a magnificent face. Her figure is also perfect! With a growth of one hundred seventy five and a half centimeters, she has a chest circumference of seventy nine, a waist - fifty six, and a hip - eighty nine centimeters.
Anne Margaret is an American star born in Sweden
This is another typical Swede, in whose appearance all the main national features are traced. Anne Margaret at the age of five was taken to the United States, where she made her career as a singer, dancer and actress.
But despite the fact that she became a naturalized American, the Swedes can rightfully be proud of her. The appearance of the girl, whose photo can be seen above, helped her to play the role of Cinderella in the "Tenth Kingdom" in 2000, Dell Monroe in "Marilyn Monroe". Of course, in addition to beauty and attractiveness, her industriousness, talent and faith in herself play a huge role. But if she had not been so charming and graceful by nature, she would hardly have managed to achieve such successes.
Maud Adams
Having played the role of the James Bond girl in the movie twice, the beautiful blonde won real fame. Although the main role in her achievements is, of course, talent. But not the last place is occupied, according to the Swedes, appearance. Pictures from the films "The Man with the Golden Gun" and "Octopus", between the shootings of which a lot of time has passed, prove that years do not always age - sometimes they turn a beautiful girl into a gorgeous extravagant lady. The appearance of the Swedish woman, even in adulthood, is distinguished by grooming, a refined taste in clothing and makeup, and sportiness in the figure.
Martha Thoren
The luxurious light-eyed brown-haired woman, a native of Stockholm, was also an actress. Despite the fact that her life was so short, she managed to leave her bright mark in the world. Thirty beautiful films in which you can enjoy the magnificent game of the brilliant beauty of Sweden - this is the legacy that Martha Thoren bestowed on people.
Helena Mattson
Another charming actress whose appearance is hard not to admire. The blue-eyed blonde began her career in the modeling business. Then she entered the theater school, for training in which she had to move to London.
The career of the artist Helena can hardly be called very successful. Some of her roles, if they were not failures, did not win universal acclaim. Critics were not always kind and generous to the work of the diva. But not a single bad word can be said about the beauty of Mattson.
Greta Garbo
One of the greatest cinema stars of the first half of the twentieth century - Greta Lovis Gustafsson (she became Garbo later) - most people remember from her beautiful films. In 1954, she was awarded the Academy Award. Greta received this award for her outstanding contribution to the development of cinematic art.
The fate of the beauty was not the best way. At thirteen, the girl lost her father and was forced to look for jobs at first in a hairdressing salon, then in a department store. But the proverb about beauty and happiness in relation to a pretty woman failed. Not being happy, Greta, even in such a modest position, shone with beauty. And they noticed her. First, she posed for advertising in front of the camera, then - in front of the movie camera. And then she was invited to shoot the film.
Swedish Princess Madeleine
This representative of the royal dynasty is famous not only for its pedigree. Many people consider her the standard of female beauty and attractiveness.
Madeline Theresa Amelia Josephine really captivates with her regular facial features, soft skin, lovely blond hair that create such an amazing contrast with expressive brown eyes.
Anita Ekberg
The stunning blonde who played in the sensational films of her time Federico Fellini, her fans remember to this day. It was Bocaccio-70 and Sweet Life that became important milestones in the creative life of the actress.
Although there were also dizzying ups in the fate of Anita. True, they were associated not so much with her creative career as with beauty. In 1951, she became a winner in the contest of beauties of her country. And therefore, she was honored to represent Sweden at the Miss Universe 1951 international competition.
Camilla Sparve
This universally recognized beauty is known throughout the world for her role in the film "McKenna's Gold."
Perhaps the fact that this film in the Soviet box office took fourth place among foreign films on box office, there is a merit of a fair-haired beauty with a magnificent figure.
