The ancient and classic swedish military symbol, a proud male lion, was recently castrated by feminist forces in European society. Scandinavian soldiers (whose ancestors were Vikings 1000 years ago) are represented abroad (in Afghanistan and elsewhere) by a castrated lion. A castrated lion symbol was given in the Middle Ages to vassals whom the king wanted to humiliate. The video can be viewed here:

In the past, any male would be greatly ashamed to be associated with such an unmasculine symbol. But today even the male military leaders will, without any hesitation, castrate their own symbols that for hundreds of years have been used to represent the best of male qualities such as male strength and male willingness to risk their own lives for the greater good - to protect women and society.
Today, Swedish men are only supposed to be pictured as having the courage of a castrated lion, a lion deprived of his masculinity.
Meanwhile, the governments of Sweden and the EU have established an organization called "Genderforce", with the purpose to force the military armed forces to become more feminine.
“what will they do with them,” indeed. I don’t think I want to know.
The US armed forces still have a "Florida."
Disgusting.
Sweden has a military? Who knew?
Actually, in lion society, all males do is eat, sleep, and have sex. It’s the females that do all the hunting.
“Meanwhile, the governments of Sweden and the EU have established an organization called “Genderforce”, with the purpose to force the military armed forces to become more feminine.”
The Europeans have become the laughingstock of the world.
Ping to the Swedish Ping List.
Wrong . Male lions are in charge of security, run patrols and defend against hyenas and other marauding lions. A pride of females without a dominant male is at real risk.
Thimk about it dude/
Leave it to the EU!
This is only funny (or outrageous) now. When Sweden gets a painful splinter or hangnail, the neo-cons will have us rushing over there to protect our ‘interests’ (while male Swedes will lounge and do their best “make Boy George look masculine” act.

Germans have a word for men who can't stand up for themselves, both literally and figuratively.
It's 'sitzpinkler', which means both one who sits when urinating and wimp.
I've always said we can learn from nature...
“This is only funny (or outrageous) now. When Sweden gets a painful splinter or hangnail, the neo-cons will have us rushing over there to protect our ‘interests’ (while male Swedes will lounge and do their best “make Boy George look masculine” act.”
Sweden does have a very popular band (won their Eurovision Swedish song contest last year) called “The Ark” that does indeed make Boy George seem masculine.
“Actually, in lion society, all males do is eat, sleep, and have sex. It’s the females that do all the hunting.”
- Not entirely true. The males more or less never hunt, but they have other functions in the pride besides eating and copulating.
According to a certain TV documentary I saw some time ago, even a bunch of 3-4 lionesses sometimes have great difficulties fending of a pack of hyenas. However, a full grown, 500 lb male lion entering the scene will shatter such a group of attackers.
Correction:
- It’s called fending OFF, not of, I believe.
Every man his own grammar nazi :)
Female lions live 10-15 years, male lions live 4-5 yrs. Ever wonder why?
OK. Thanks.
“OK. Thanks.”
- You’re welcome.
But in general, you’re right.
Greetings from Gothenburg, Sweden
