To be clear, I've formed no belief. The author clearly wished to provoke thought and discussion on the subject.

I think that my point was that you have read three Swedish novels and, from that, seriously asked about the levels of misogyny in Sweden.
My further point was that I could easily point to a dozen or more American novels that clearly beg the question, according to your logic, whether or not America has a massive number of evil serial killers.
Asking questions of that nature based on reading three novels is naive to say the least.
