Burqas in Sweden? lol what?
I live in gothenburg which is the second larget city and I do see muslim women in the city a lot I've never seen a burqa.
It has to be pretty rare.

*Edit* I'm being dumb and confusing burqa and hijab.
I live in Sweden too. Hijabs are being used by pretty much every foreign-looking woman in my town (Åstorp) and around here, in Skåne (south Sweden) you'll find that same pattern everywhere. Burqas are indeed rare. I have seen them here in Åstorp, I've seen them in Helsingborg, and I've seen them in Malmö. It is ABSOLUTELY a thing in Sweden. Still, it is kinda rare.

Never seen one in Gothenburg sounds like a lie.

I don't doubt that there might be a few women brainwashed enough to wear them in gothenburg. But there are probably few enough that I've never seen one.
