Historical Characters, Including Frederick the Great, Discussion Post 39

[cahn]

Last post, along with the usual 18th-century suspects, included the Ottonians; changing ideas of conception and women's sexual pleasure; Isabella of Parma (the one who fell in love, and vice versa, with her husband's sister); Henry IV and Bertha (and Henry's second wife divorcing him for "unspeakable sexual acts"). (Okay, Isabella of Parma was 18th century.)

Lol, I think your search hits may be localized to your region (and language?), because after deciding that Sami looked remarkably Middle Eastern, I looked more closely at the captions and saw that I was almost exclusively getting men with the Arabic name "Samer"!

I will take your word for it. :)

Ha ha, okay! Yes, the search was localized to Sweden, and I thought it would be preserved in the link...anyway, here is a random photograph from the search.

Ah, yes, thank you! That looks much more like I how think of Swedes looking and much less like I think of Syrians. ;)

I will pass this information on at the next opportunity.
