Living in Sweden, I can say that the practice is presumably less common than it was 10 years ago. There has been a lot of bad press coverage a few years back, schools and the police etc. "warn" pupils and their parents alike. Times change, and I haven't seen much coverage in the Swedish press for some time. Way back, the Swedish gutter press even published some pictures with topless girls and naked guys in their paper edition. Needless to say, they certainly wouldn't get away with it today. Although I really enjoy these kind of pictures, I must say that I can't understand why making a fool out of oneself in front of one's peers, prior to beginning an education, would be desirable. I certainly wouldn't want my daughter (not that I have one) participating in this kind of rubbish "culture". They aren't even in "porn", just some stupid "bonding ritual".
EDIT: At least my above thought apply to college initiations. At uni they ought to have acquired a bit more sense...
