Crap, for a minute there I thought they were talking about Mexico.
As far as this thread's comments on Russian women...they are beautiful. They get not so beautiful after the hard life of Russia.
Walking around Moscow in the early evening of a summer day can be breathtaking. Tall, blue-gray eyed Russian blondes stalk about, still holding their heads high. They are beyond belief. The Rus were a Swedish tribe that went east, which tells you about the ethnicity that they share. They do have a hint of Asian genes; you can see it in the slightly hooded eyes.
It is a horrible tragedy and evidence of the utter evil of Communism that it destroyed these people who were once great. And now, 15 years gone, forces their young women to sell themselves any way they can to survive.
The passing of the Russians will be celebrated by some here, but not by me.

When is the last time you were in Moscow? A good majority of the prostitutes now are from Ukraine, Moldova, or the provinces. The Chechens are usually their pimps. Still a horrible situation, but the numbers "Muscovites" engaged in prostitution has plummeted enough that prostitutes will advertise on the internet or in papers stating they are a "true" Moscow gal (so they can up their price).
What's really sad is if you talk to these girls (they hang out in bars frequented by Westerners) you'll find that a lot of them are very educated and if they had been born somewhere else they'd probably be doing quite well for themselves.
It's been my experience (and observation) that most Russian (and Ukrainian) men take their women for granted.
