"Coloured" is insensitive in swedish too, since it implies that pasty aryan-white is the norm and all others are, well, coloured. "Black" is actually a better term. But I agree most Swedes tend to believe "coloured" is a "kinder" term, also, it's used as a general term for non-whites. There hasn't been much public debate about what terms are better to use and such here, so we kind of suck at this. The icecream is mighty tasty though.
