I keep getting email from a nice Russian woman who wants to meet me.

When my Nigerian business partner comes through with the dough I'm going to send for her.

Pravda must be in the pay of the Russian brides websites. I don't know whether it's urban legends or not, but I've heard some horror stories about those blushing Russian brides.

"And, at the same time when Russian women have so much responsibilities, their husbands spend their whole time dozing in front of TV sets in desperate attempts to find out the meaning of life and to understand the truth of the universe."

Now I ask you: Where in American journalism you going to find insights like that, peoples?!

When you're surrounded by rabid, man-hating femi-nazis Moscow starts to look very promising.

There is something quite basic here that is nearly Strangeloveian. Let there be no doubt as to who won the Cold War. Or did Gorbachev plan this as well?

[SouthernFreebird]

The whole of the burden, housekeeping, upbringing of children, earning of money are shifted onto women. And, at the time when Russian American women have so much responsibilities, their husbands spend their time dozing in front of TV sets in desperate attempts to find out the meaning of life and to understand the truth of the universe.

I have a Nephew who married a Russian woman. She already lived here so might not be typical.

He is actually a smart and handsome guy but a little shy and nerdy. He comes from a conservative family and we were all shocked to learn of the marriage.

We finally got to meet her a few months ago and it was a pleasant surprise. She was not only attractive, she is also pleasant and seems rather conservative herself.

This article is based on mythology about Russian women,orthodox or not.

Once they get their two feet in the U.S.A. and they become Americanized, you are history Daddy-o.

[enemy of the people]

Each party gets what it wants to have. Husbands get authority and status, and wives are given, in exchange, peace in family and well-being. "Families of this kind where husbands are Americans and women are Russians prove to be long-living, as the roles in the family are clearly distributed and the mechanism operates good, although these are mixed families. In such families each of the couple is ready to make concessions and on the whole, wonderfully performs the role."

What is wrong with this? Nothing! There are many reasons for the high divorce rate in America, and the above seems to be part of the answer why. A husband without any real authority or respect from his wife is doomed to an unhappy marriage or divorce. The above description sounds similar to the Biblical role models that God commanded for husbands and wives.

[Hermann the Cherusker]

When an American man switches from the model of American family where husband and wife are partners equal in rights to the model of an Orthodox family, he thus raises his own significance. In Orthodox families men are given more authority and are more respected. It is certainly an advantage for a man and raises his social and psychological status. In a word, American men seem to have tired of the feminism propagated by American women, and it is frequent that they seek Russian women to start families.

Feminazi's strike again!

Fortunately, not all American women are feminazis.

Russian women are beautiful! Don't believe me? Go to BLue Sapphires.

[Truthsearcher]

This one is so easy to figure out, it's the same reason there are a lot of American men marrying Asian women.

The #1 quality men look for in women, is beauty. The #1 quality women look for in men, is wealth.

American men are attractive to women from Russia and Asia because even an average American income can afford lifestyles that overwhelming majority of men in those countries can't provide.

And American men wants these women because there is a finite supply of attractive women in America, and mostly taken by the wealthy and/or attractive males. So the average looking middle class guy has the choice of either the average looking middle class American women, or the really attractive girls from Russia/Asia, and guess who wins out.

Many american women are so un feminine, due to PC- ERA-Cosmo-Oprah exposure that men here just don't like them. That, and their superficiality and empty heads. not all women, just most. And if you go into the urban areas, it is worse.

Americans Marry Russian Women. What For?

I can't speak to marrying Russian women, but I do know I'm marrying a Canadian for love. Ya think that could be it?

American men seem  to have tired of the feminism propagated by American women,

[boris]

I saw a documentary in which several Russian prostitutes were asked their goals in life. Every one wanted to marry an American and get out of Russia.

What qualifications did they look for in an American man? Oh, the usual secondary sexual characteristics: a fat wallet, a passport, and a house.

Hey, I can qualify for that!

Americans Marry Russian Women. What For?

One of my co workers married a Russian woman, but I went to the Philippines for my south sea island beauty. Smartest thing I ever did.

[Constitutionalist Conservative]

As psychologists say, now Russian men undervalue the essence of family. The whole of the burden, housekeeping, upbringing of children, earning of money are shifted onto women. And, at the time when Russian women have so much responsibilities, their husbands spend their time dozing in front of TV sets in desperate attempts to find out the meaning of life and to understand the truth of the universe. They merely disregard everyday problems that are essential for their families as they consider the above mentioned idle thinking to be of higher importance.

This may explain the rapidly-declining birthrate in Russia.
