SFI: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh

[marshtide]

Today we began with the politics thing. The extremely erratic discussion ended with a guy from Congo defending Sverigedemokraterna, aka the Thieving Immigrant Bastards Go Home party, while the teacher stared in some kind of fascinated disbelief.

Then we had adverb practice! We were divided into two groups - men and women. "Write down adverbs that describe what you would like in a partner! In groups!" said the teacher hopefully. "So what would your ideal husband be like?" I was asked. "A lesbian," I said, rather sulkily, I admit, because this is a point I have now been trying to make for some time. Apparently a hilarious joke! Ha ha how she kids us. Like any nice girl would actually be with a woman! Ha ha. So anyway, they got on with a list while I wished for tea (preferably with booze in, by that stage); they would like their husbands to be rich, strong, brave, manly, handsome, etc. Then we switched lists to see what the two different groups had written! Do you want to guess what the first two things on the list the guys had written were? Do you?

"Modest" and "patient".

It continued in much the same vein. "Shy" and "young" also made appearances.

Now I am home, and still feeling vaguely traumatised. Can I please have that tea with booze in? Or maybe just booze?

Oh wow. I never realized before how lucky I was in the other students in my Swedish class!

Eeeeeeesh. I can't figure out what you'd need to do to make the point more clearly at this stage, beyond making out with Val in public.

I think skip the tea and move straight to the G&Ts...

Man, people are dumb.

Skip the tea. Straight to the booze. Preferably in combinations you like. Possibly before class, so maybe they'll get the hint.

Also, "modest"? Really? Patient I can understand, and I need, but modest?

What arguments did the guy from Congo use in his defence of the super-right-wing party? D: Why would an immigrant defend said party...? idgi DDDDD:

idk, I recognise your reason(s) for dismay at the list of 'female' traits, but personally I am more DDDDDDDD: at the male traits...:| The whole thing is really a gender fail :|
