Swedish Left Party politician Barbro SĂśrman has suggested that itâs âworseâ when Swedish men rape women, than when immigrants do so.
âThe Swedish men who rape do it despite the growing gender equality. They make an active choice. Itâs worse imo [in my opinion],â SĂśrman tweeted.
SĂśrman, a self-described socialist and a feminist, made the observation in response to what she claimed was excessive media focus on the fact that most of the rapes in Sweden are committed by immigrants.
She explained that Swedish men are brought up in a society that believes in gender equality and therefore should be held to higher standards than migrants, who come from cultures where women are treated as second-rate citizens.
When faced with a storm of indignation, she tried to walk back the comments and admitted that her sentiments had been âclumsily expressedâ.
She later deleted her Twitter account altogether.
Sweden is widely known as the rape capital of Europe. It has been noted that Muslim immigrants are massively over represented in the official rape statistics.
Sweden has the fastest growing population in Europe, due nearly totally to the influx of Arabs and Muslims from the Middle East. At the same time, its crime rate has increased astronomically: In 1975, 421 rapes were reported to the police; in 2014, it was 6,620.
