The two guys I know are perfectly happy, as are their wives. And God bless 'em for that. I agree. God bless them. Now me? I went to the Philippines for mine. I made a good choice too.

Because of academic feminism's influence on young girls, lots of American women have grown up to be mediocre and litigious whiners. This makes dating a lot like aversion therapy if the girl you just shagged takes terms like heterosexism seriously. If women with feminist sensibilities identified themselves somehow, like enemy combatants in war, American women would be a lot more fun to meet.
While all moral men are against sex trafficking, which often manifests itself through mail-order bride services, I support any decent guy who finds himself embracing a Russian beauty. In general, Russian women are more pragmatic, have a more realistic concept of American culture, and a better grasp of U.S. history than American women do. Also, Russian women are HOT!

It's a joke. While the website is real, its one of the funniest things I have ever read.

Many Americans are so obsessed with things they place their families second in the pursuit of less important things. This is the reason for a lot of divorce in this country I think.

guys are likely seeking a 'northern european' look A lot of northern Europeans settled in the southern half of South America -- Scot, English, German, etc. Also northern Italians and some Spanish can be quite fair.

I'd appreciate it if you could expand on this thought. We are dealing with generalities here, so it goes without saying that my comments will not apply to a specific case. I think Russia is generally a matriarchial society; at home, the women are in charge. I say this based upon knowing many Russian couples here in the US and my involvement in the Orthodox church. Its kind of humorous, but most of the Russian priests I know defer to their wives in almost all aspects of home life.
Other things to consider are the raising of children. If the Russian wife is Orthodox and religious, she will insist (correctly) that the children be baptised and raised in the Orthodox church. It would be a good idea in this case for the husband to convert to Orthodoxy and raise the children in a household of one faith. Pulling children in two dirctions of different faiths is not a good idea. Also, in the Orthodox church, marriage is a sacrement; a spiritual bond that cannot be broken. So if you are married in the Orthodox church, be advised that divorce is not an option. This is of course a very different approach to marriage than American secular society.
We Americans are egalitarian. We think all men are created equal. In my opinion, Russians do not think this way. Rather, they view a boss-subordinate relationship as the natural order of things. Some have put it rather crudely that Russians have to have an ass to kiss and an ass to kick. This characteristic is manifest in Russian political dynamics, where the central government has a great deal of power and authority (and of course corruption).
You should also give some thought to logistics. Does she have a family in Russia? If so, she will want to visit her family and possibly bring them over here. A few trips here and there and you are starting to add up the money.
Hope this helps,

The weirdest thing is how almost all males avoid female comedians even if they are attractive. I was at a comedy club once and some good looking female comedian mentioned how when she is out on the club circuit, she can NEVER get a date. It was one of those revelations that I realized was so true. For some reason most guys would never consider dating a female comedian, no matter how attractive. I used to know a very attractive Australian female comedian but never considered hitting on her. Why? I'm not sure but it must have been because she was a comedian. For some reason guys just aren't comfortable being socially involved with female comedians. Can anybody figure that out?
...might it be because comediennes joke about men as part of their acts?

Divorce rate for American man to american woman marriages : 50+%
Divorce rate for American man to Russian Women : 20%
I'll take those odds in a heartbeat.
Don't forget another vital statistic...Percentages of divorces in the United States filed by women: 75%-80%. Percentages of divorces in the United States filed by men: 20%-25%.

5. Marriage in the Orthodox church comes down to two basic admonitions from St. Paul: a. Women, obey your husbands. b. Men, honor and love your wives. 6. If the woman you are interested in is somewhat religious and wants to go to a Russian Orthodox (real one, not the commie fake) you should probably get to know something about the faith before getting married.
You make them sound like the Catholic girls from my mother's generation (who are sadly MIA from mine...).

Most of those men wanting a foreign bride through Internet or from foreign bars are losers who in their delusions think they are quite a hunk
When we first moved to Asia, I quickly dubbed the country we were living in 'Ugly Men's Paradise'. It's just unnatural! From my observations the problem is not that these men can't find conservative women at home, they are just so shallow that they want a perfect doll woman on their arm and their chances of getting that at home are slim to none. I don't think American women are missing out on much by these guys being taken off the market by Asian women.

"If you search FR there was a thread on a study of why West Indian and African blacks score higher on 'biased tests' and seem to fare 'better' than many black Americans."
I noticed the same degree of social separation between black Americans and those from Africa and the West Indies while I was at New Jersey Institute of Technoloogy (in the Central Ward of Newark) 1975-1979. The latter just could not make sense of the former "culture", and most did not buy into it. Most hung on to a lot of "British Empirisms."
