Alcoholism was a major social problem in Sweden in the early 20th century, and Nerman considered alcohol being a drug that made the working class passive instead of fighting for better conditions. Ture Nerman had younger twin brothers, the artist Einar Nerman and the archeologist Birger Nerman. Nerman grew up in a middle class family in the working-class, industrial city of Norrkoping. His father owned a bookstore in the city and had married an employee who was many years younger: she became the mother of Ture and his two younger brothers.

Nerman graduated from the Norrkoping gymnasium (secondary school) in 1903 at the age of 17. On the graduation day he took his school bible and tossed it in the Motala strom river. In his autobiography, Nerman describes this as his first revolutionary action. Some years later when he was asked by the Swedish Social Democratic Party's leader Hjalmar Branting what had made him a socialist, Nerman answered that it had been the questioning of religion. After graduation he moved to study at Uppsala University. The year 1905 saw both a revolution in Russia and revolutionary development in Scandinavia as Norway declared itself independent from the rule of the Swedish crown.
