Sometimes I honestly can’t get over the fact that I’m living here.
When I first arrived in Russia several years ago everything was one BIG Culture Shock after another.
Of course the Biggest Culture Shock of all were the Women..
Because what I encountered truly went well beyond anything that I had originally imagined or anticipated.
Not only did these Girls Obviously “Look” different..
But they sure as heck “Acted” differently too..
So as silly as this may sound..
It really did feel like I was surrounded by Alien Princesses that you could only see on celluloid.
From Princess Leia in Star Wars to the nameless native girl in the original Star Gate film..
I’m sure there are tons of others you can name but quite frankly now that I live here.. I really can’t remember who they are anymore..
Anyways..
Take a look at these latest photos and let me know if you also start to forget..

HELLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ladies!
January 8, 2007 at 2:02 pm
A very nice change from the usual earthy crunchy types we have here in western Massachusetts, even with five colleges (including one all womens college) tucked away in our little valley.
January 8, 2007 at 4:23 pm
It sure is David..
Best of all any of these ladies are not only “easy on the eyes” but also easy in terms of having a conversation with too.
Friendly and curious is the word of the day here.. just like those Alien Princesses in all those SciFi Movies.
GL
January 8, 2007 at 7:01 pm
David, I’m a little closer in towards Boston, so I’m straddling “earthy cruchy” land and “nose in the air” land. Talk about a rock and a hard place!
GL - the girl in Stargate was called Sha’uri. She was in some episodes of the series too. She ended up with a snake inside her. (NOT like that, you guys have such dirty minds!
)
January 8, 2007 at 7:04 pm
Holy smokes. Just when you think they can’t get any more beautiful… wow! Every one, simply amazing. The third lady in this series is frankly stunning, making the breath and heart drop a cycle or two each.
January 8, 2007 at 7:15 pm
The reason I remembered that Star Gate girl was because of how her demeanor was portrayed as the hero develops a bond and then a relationship with her.
The way they portrayed her in that first film honestly reminds me of many of the girls that I’ve met here.
Including all 3 of these incredible ladies..
January 8, 2007 at 7:30 pm
Yeah, me too. She was SO soft, sweet and beautiful, it made me melt. All she wanted was to make Daniel Jackson happy.
Something occurred to me the other day - how often Hollywood still protrays women this way to one degree or another. They KNOW that both men and women STILL respond to that. But it can’t be acknowledged openly. So they also have to give us a parade of kick-ass bi*ches to pander to the conscious feminist mind.
January 8, 2007 at 10:45 pm
This is the gutsiest blog I’ve ever seen. The unadulterated truth isn’t always pretty, but being in its presence is beautiful.
January 8, 2007 at 11:40 pm
The alien girl’s name was actually Sha’re and yes she was a completely feminine lady until the Ga’ould stuck a snake in her head. No surprise Dr. Jackson responded to her, in the movie I thought it was funny how he at first didn’t quite know what to say to her. How she acted before and after being take over by the snake is a pretty good way of describing what feminism has done to three generations of women here in the U.S. But there’s more, in real life, the actress who portrayed Sha’re (Vaitare Bandera), was involved with Michael Shanks, ( Dr. Daniel Jackson) believe it or not. They have a daughter now. As for the lovely ladies pictured, all three of them look marvelous…..though I have to admit the one in the first photo is especially attractive. Siberian alien princesses is right, but I have to agree that would only be in contrast to what I encounter here.
Taras
January 9, 2007 at 12:21 am
> The alien girl’s name was actually Sha’re..
Oh, I was using the original Abydos spelling
I didn’t know Michael Shanks went out with her. He’s the MAN! They made a nice onscreen couple, though. I bet if I was on an alien planet and a beautiful girl came into my tent and took her clothes off, I’d be momentarily speechless too. Especially after I passed out.
January 9, 2007 at 12:47 am
My mistake Craig……..you have to admit Mrs. Bandera is one smokin’ hot lady too. Must be because she’s of Polynesian and European ancestry…..:-) She wasn’t in the original movie, she appeared in the Sci Fi Channel series.

No argument there. I’ve always had a crush on Samantha, and Amanda Tapping is even hotter in real life. I like brainy blondes. (Guess that puts me in the same league as Rodney McKay. Hmmm..) I even forgave her for the “Just because my reproductive organs are on the inside..” potshot.
And then there’s the Tokra babe in the tight gray leather top…..
January 9, 2007 at 1:17 am
I’d say these look like _normal_ Russian girls. I say normal, meaning most girls there make a big thing about looking good. Combined with being naturally pretty, many of them are just a wonder to behold.
In my country (at a guess), only the top 3% of girls are this attractive. Many people (men and women) are obese and some just alarmingly so. In Russia, something like 30% of the girls are very good looking or better, and less than 3% are even slightly overweight (as a westerner you really would NOT consider them overweight).
On my second visit there, I decide to take some photos while I was wandering around. I wanted to show the difference in the appearance of women there. A few random shots in the street, as a representative idea. My wife (who is Russian) even helped me out

The first pic looks a bit ‘arranged’ but wasn’t at all. She was just the conductress from our train carriage. So if you take what you see here and repeat indefinitely, thats what young women look like in Russia. I was not being at all selective.
What isn’t so obvious is that Russian women are relaxed, positive, thoughtful and friendly in the company of men. They do not have a ‘reflexivly compettitive’ attitude towards men. Its a pleasure to spend time in their company - no awkward pressure.
Anyway I’ll stop spouting opinions and just recommend Russia as a life experience even if you are not looking for a partner. It is a crazy place and has its problems (I got a criminal case after 3 days for not properly registering my visa on arrival, but it was fixed at a fee of $20 and a nice ’sorry’ haha :-), but it is wild, _lots_ of fun and it may change you.
January 9, 2007 at 4:04 am
I was thinking US women would also be attractive if they weren’t so doggoned fat. But, that is not true. One of the first things I used to notice when I returned from Mexico was the nasty, ugly, angry look on the women’s faces.
The good news is, what you see is what you get. Nasty, ugly, angry women who look nasty, ugly, and angry.
January 9, 2007 at 4:23 am
GL,
The Russian women on yours and Visitors’ pictures are so so so beautiful. They truly are alien princesses, and I don’t say that lightly at all.
By the way, I really hate it when women throw hissy fits. I think that you probably discussed this before, but I can’t remember where, so I am going to ask this question here: Do Russian women throw less hissy fits than American women? What do you think is the percent difference between the number of hissy fits that Russian women throw and the number of hissy fits that American women throw in a given period of time?

I had 2 experiences at work just today that bear this out. Not so much nasty and angry, just ugly and dead.
I saw a girl in the cafeteria whom I hadn’t seen before. We rode up in the elevator with our lunches in our hand. She got in before me and lamely indicated whether I was going to the same floor as her, which I was. When we got there, I saw her reach for the phone to get let in (she must be a temporary contractor.) I said, “Here, let me” and swiped her in (though I wasn’t supposed to.) She said flatly, “Thanks” and went in. No smile, she didn’t look at me or acknowledge me, or the small favor I had done her, in any way.
A little later I was going out and saw another girl, who I recognized but had never spoken to, headed in. I held the door for her and she went through, barely saying thanks under her breath.
This goes beyond simple rudeness. It’s as if these women have been taught that every man is a potential rapist, bent on destroying her life if given the slightest encouragement.
To all the feminists who lurk on this blog until you can’t contain your bile anymore: Shame on you, for turning young women into this. Shame on you!

Hi Craig,
Please be patient.. the spam filter that WordPress uses is overactive and I made a post about this earlier. I check my spam cache frequently so your comments will get posted like they have now.
Hang in there and please keep commenting..

OK, GL. I’m nothing of not persistent, when I have something to say!
Do you know what triggers the spam filter? I can’t figure out what I tried to say that it didn’t like.
I’m a programmer, so I obsess about these user interface types of things. And my pet peeve is when the application doesn’t tell you what you did wrong so you can fix it!!
And I’m still not convinced it’s not a conspiracy. Like the Kennedy assassination, and the Roswell coverup, and the lizard people, and the …

Good day and Hi to everyone. Am so glad to find so much brain cells floating around and yes it is true that sometimes we hesitate gentlemanly gestures because they are not responded accordingly.
Craig probably the male-female species in the workplace no longer exists. They now called them workers, and gentlemanly behaviors such as yours and mine are viewed as too much testosterone in the air. A gentleman will always be a gentleman and ladies aknowledge that, but a b#*tch will always feel entitlement to our gestures. Sad but true.

Luke,
Honestly I’ve almost forgotten what a “Hissy Fit” is since I’ve been here. But now that you’ve brought it up I can unfortunately recall from a long time ago in a galaxy far far away…
January 9, 2007 at 8:28 am
Craig,
As grateful as I am to WordPress.com I’m sure they are under too much P.C. pressure to give this site the recognition it deserves.
At one point we were consistently listed in the hot blog or blog of the day section but now we have been “removed” eventhough we have a lot more traffic and incoming links now as opposed to then. If any of you guys reading this have any contacts with the wordpress boys I’d try to have a chat with them to see what’s up or if this situation can be changed.
Is this a Conspiracy? Maybe..
Probably more like certain Guys not being able to take the heat from the various Feminist Trolls and Lurkers that complain about us to them.
I used to worry about this.. now I don’t.. I feel confident in knowing that we are starting to reach a certain level of critical mass as far as our readership goes and the word of mouth that comes along with it to be so easily disgarded.
I’m not taking anything for granted here because constant vigilence is critical. However I just understand that we Men are “On the Right Side of History” as far as our principals and beliefs are concerned. And clearly this wave is going to continue to grow..
You just can’t kill an idea who’s time has come..
January 9, 2007 at 8:35 am
Amorcito,
Many of these Ladies actually have a hard time believing that WE Men would want to devote the time that we do towards understanding them.
This is something that they do not normally encounter here.
When I tell them about this blog they simply ask “WHY?”. Because they believe that Western Women are just the same as they are in most respects so why should any more special attention be brought on to them?
One of my fellow collegues who has been reading this site is a drop dead gorgeous lady who is starting to gain this understanding as well.
She said something very cool to me today..
She said.. “You are promoting our Women and helping to raise their self-esteem in relation to the rest of the World.”
Well I guess I can chalk up another smile on my face..
January 9, 2007 at 11:17 am
Such a wonder to behold GL. I am excersizing all my patience. All the comments and pictures cannot sate my appetite. I most make the journey, for that my destiny is assured. Keep up the good work and the posts are only making me more anxious.

Looks like it.. We used to be a daily fixture on their Blog of their Hotblog list and if you check out some of the other sites they have listed there I don’t “understand” why we aren’t included in that given how active this site is.. Go figure..

Amazing, beautiful pictures. Just a quik question for RW man. Are feminists trying to break into the Russian and Eastern European markets now that they have conquered western Europe?
January 11, 2007 at 6:38 am
GL, I just told a whole bunch of people at my school about my blog and your blog, and told them to spread the word. There was a trade off to doing this. Like that one Russian politician, I am one of the “popular but controversial” people at my school. The good side of this deal is that more supporters will be coming our way. The bad side is that not everyone likes me, and feminist indoctrination is ever-present at colleges nowadays, so there are also some bombthrowers that will undoubtably be coming our way. However, because I have established my reputation very well at my school, more supporters will be coming than bombthrowers, so I thought it was a good trade.
–Luke Skywalker
January 11, 2007 at 9:58 am
About how many views per day do you have to have to get onto the Hotblog list?
January 11, 2007 at 1:18 pm
Hi Brilliant Site..
Welcome aboard and thank you for your warm words. I think the feminist will obviously try to break in but I honestly don’t think their impact will be felt on a general basis due to the seriously patriarchal nature of this country along with the demographic imbalance of eligible women to qualified men.
Feminism in Russia will NOT help a woman to find a husband or to start a family. It will do just the exact opposite. So there is a pretty strong incentive internally to disregard feminist dogma. And for this we can all be thankful.
BTW please tell your friends.. Cheers GL
January 11, 2007 at 1:24 pm
Hi Luke,
Much grattitude for spreading the word.
But Young Padawan..
Always remember to..
NEVER WORRY ABOUT THE CRITICS..
Because no matter what you do they will always be there unless they realize that you are completely beyond their control.
Do what you know in your heart and soul is right and you will be a much Happier Man because of it..
This is one of the deepest principals in life that exists. When you do what you want to do you have something special that those who cannot follow their dreams do not have..
It’s called an IDENTITY.
And it’s FAR more valuable then Gold, Guns or even your Dream Girls.
Understand this.. and you will indeed become a leader Luke.. I sense it is already starting with you.. MTFBWY
GL
January 11, 2007 at 1:28 pm
Siberianow..
wordpress like google has a secret voodoo ranking algorithm that they use that is not necessarily weighted mostly towards number of visitors. I’d recommend that you build up your content and network with as many other quality bloggers as you can and trade links and you will start to see progress..
As with all good things in life including finding the right Russian girl.. it’s just lots of work but it’s also the kind of work that just continues to build towards your future success.. good luck.. GL
January 11, 2007 at 1:28 pm
Because I have an idea. If my blog becomes really popular like your blog is, and gets on hotblog, then the feminists will have TWO blogs that they will have to worry about and cover up and censor. And this may be harder for them to do without people knowing about it.
–Luke Skywalker
January 11, 2007 at 7:32 pm

Don’t do it for the feminist..
Do it for yourself and the audience you wish to reach..
If you do it for the feminist even if you hate them you will attract them.. get it?
January 12, 2007 at 1:16 am
Luke, don’t worry about people who don’t like you. It doesn’t do anything but create sterss for you. I’ve never been a popular sort, but I never gave a damn about what others thought anyway, especially when it came to what I knew to be best for me. Just remember, life is not a popularity contest. I’m not advocating going out of your way to rub people’s fur the wrong way, but if someone doesn’t like you because you’re anti-feminist, it’s just a question of mind over matter. In your mind, they don’t matter.

And in the words of the master (I forget which one) - the harder you resist something, the more you become it.
On the other hand, when you stand up and speak for what you believe in, no matter how unpopular it seems, it’s amazing how many people come out of the woodwork, who were afraid to speak up themselves, to support you. They may not always be ready to take the public stand that you do, but at least you can take some encouragement from their presence.
On another page here, I mentioned the Take Back the Penis rally I held with a friend years ago in Harvard Square, a bastion of liberalism. I was AMAZED that more women than men came up to us and said “It’s about time!”

Don’t be so silly. Women are the same, everywhere in the world. They kill you, bit by bit.

To some degree I agree with you.. but it all depends on if you are enjoying the ride or not..
January 12, 2007 at 3:05 am
Well I don’t agree with him, because as GL has said, Russian Women have done so many things to set themselves apart from the crowd that Western Women just don’t do. Thus they are truly different, and it is in a very good way.

Taras I’m not worried about people who don’t like me. I was just trying to give GL a heads up that because I told a lot of people at my school about his and my blogs, a lot of supporters, but also some bombthrowers, will be coming our way.

Good day everyone
Let me get GL’s feedback on this and let me qoute Luke
“Russian Women have done so many things to set themselves apart from the crowd that Western Women just don’t do. Thus they are truly different, and it is in a very good way.”
Don’t you think
-some thirty years or so ago American Women such as our mothers are but mirror images of today’s Eastern European women-Russian in particular
-that AW have evolved from femenine to another fem???????
-that Russian Women have viewed some role reversals in America that we American Men are now more like mothers in contrast to RW.
Just a thought.
January 12, 2007 at 9:50 am
Hi Amorcito,
You’d have to go much farther back then 30 years. American Women 30 years ago were in the throes of calling us MCP’s or Male Chauvinist Pigs, Burning Bra’s, and pushing for the completely Communist inspired ERA or Equal Rights Amendment.
No if you wanted to see these traditional types Russian Women in the US you’d have to go back AT LEAST 60 years or more in my opinion.
With some of the girls I’ve meet here you’d have to go back over a hundred years or so based on the level of traditions and customs they carry within.
This is one of the biggest reasons why these women are so incredibly special and need to be treasured as such by all of you.
GL

Can Anyone Ever Explain To This Ukrainian Antic, Why In The World Should Women Burn Bras?????
January 12, 2007 at 4:54 pm
The bra burning you’ve hear about was for lack of a better word, REBELLION. It was one of many stunts the feminists here have done to either gain recruits or just get attention like a spoiled brat. Unfortunately, the radical feminists no longer need to burn bras anymore Natalia.
Taras
January 12, 2007 at 5:36 pm
Besides, the bra is a symbol of male oppression, don’t you know.
January 12, 2007 at 6:55 pm
because we all know that saggy boobs = femminism, somehow…
(sorry for disappearing for so long! College breaks :D)
January 12, 2007 at 7:34 pm
NO PASARAN!!!
When they are small, you long to underscore you have them… and to wear Beautiful Adult Lingerie…
When they are bulging, you convince yourself into the bra to spare them…
When they are flopping, it’s disgusting uncomfortable even to imagine. Something like having a ring in your tongue… Protest at the cost of convenience? Idiocy. Russians call it “Gonna stick away my eye, let my mother-in-law has a one-eyed son-in-law.”
They never knew what it is like choosing between a dirty-blue tank cover or faded-carrot melon bag, if ever present at the store.
Heartfully, N.
January 13, 2007 at 12:50 am
I’m glad I found this blog — great discussions. I am taking that the purpose of this blog is to understand Russian women? It seems there is the group on this blog who thinks “Russian women are the answer to all my problems.” Ok, well I would say sort of — but it’s complicated. Why aren’t Russian men and Russian women happy together (divorce rate is above 50%)? (although I would also note it’s above 50% here in the US).
My stab at the question (as I’m just about to go live with my girlfriend in Moscow for a few weeks) In order to understand Russian women, you have to “step into their shoes.” I would argue the essence of a RW is contradictory: 1) RW’s goal is to look nice, be perfect and recieve love 2) want someone as nice as them 3) need someone now. (2) is in contradition with (3) because there is almost no one who lives up to the RW’s high standards in (2).
You are going to find yourself “put on the shelf” since a RW wants (3) if you don’t measure up to her high standards. Which is almost impossible, measuring up to her standards in (2).
If you think you can be a slob and the RW will love you, you are sorely mistaken!
If you are going to have a successful relationship with a Russian women you are going to have game plan for when she doesn’t think you are great. Anyone who is in a relationship with a RW knows it is like a wave. When she’s not happy, she’s going to pull what I call “power moves” — not answer the phone, not show up to dates on time, break dates with you, etc. In my experience, it happens to almost everyone, Russian men and non-Russian men, because RW have two ideals: perfection and the need to get married right away.
What I suggest is use humor, and be a bit depreciating towards her when she pulls power moves — and in general. Just slightly. Has to be funny but also slightly insulting so it is a bit of an artform. So for example, my girlfriend and I played badmitton, I just crushed her — didn’t even let her win a point — and then said “You are very good are you” and kep saying I am the best, in a funny way. Then laughed — she didn’t like it for the first few minutes then thought it was alright, and admitted I was a much better player than her (and athlete). Another example — she was going to an interview and I said “Ok, let’s role play, I’ll be the boss” Then I was asking her some really tough questions, such as “How GOOD are you?” Just playing with her. She sort of objects at first but by now I’m playing with her all the time and our relationship is quite good — she pulls some stuff but knows she can’t really do it because I’ll just joke and that will be that.
Again, I warn all men who think they are going to waltz into Russia and “be themselves” and the Russian woman is going to “fall in love” with them because they are a foreigner, rich etc — you are going to be made into MINCE MEAT.

Hello Kirk and welcome aboard.
Thanks for your excellent comments and great advice. I agree with everything you’ve put out completely.
Most guys don’t understand this simple fact that no matter how stacked you think the odds are against the Women here demographically if you show them the slightest bit of disrespect or inattention to them..
You will know it. DO NOT EXPECT to land here and have a line of girls waiting for you..
Please keep on commenting.. good luck with your trip to Russia and please tell your buddies..

Hey Kirk - Great points but I think if you go back and reread all the articles and comments here, the simplistic mindset you’re talking about just isn’t there. If it is, it’s a tiny minority. GL does a great job of explaining all the complicated facets you’re talking about.

RW - Happy ‘Old New Year’! This is the traditional New Year for Russia, based on the old calendar.
I want to comment on the hissy fits as one who is married to a Russian woman.
Total hissy fits in the last two years of our relationship - that would be zero. Yes, zero.
Number of calm, rational discussions when there is an issue or friction in our marriage - some, but who cares. That is called a healthy relationship.
I love the one picture visitor posted, I am always amazed by the stunning women wearing frumpy uniforms in Russia. That one pic by the train - I see that a lot!
I just returned from St Petersburg, men the women are as RW says. RW your pictures are very typical. But better are their personalities.
They WANT THEIR HUSBANDS TO BE HAPPY!!!! What a concept.

That’s awesome Rule62! By the way, I have a post about this on my blog, and I really need more testimonials from people like you about how they have seen Russian and/or Siberian women throw none or very few hissy fits.
–Luke Skywalker
January 13, 2007 at 12:16 pm
Also GL, because I invited a lot of people from college onto my blog, and a lot of them major in Math and the Natural Sciences and are very numerical people. Thus it would be really nice if I could have even a ballpark guesstimation as to the number of hissy fits you have seen total in your experiences in Siberia.

…And this is what Natalia says about “power pulls” and “negs”:
“The difference between poison and cure is in dosage, recipe and application.”
They may be “spice” and “acupuncture” to daily relations, and such they are as an important part of Russian women’s charms.
They may be total bad taste and race of climbing over each other’s egos.
They may be deal-breakers. Got a draft about how “negs” can cancel your Russian relationship.
Humor is vital. But there is always a fine line between pricking blisters of vanity (”now prove me how good you are”), and trampling over the neighbor’s failure. I am sure that Kirk’s girl was sent to school sufficiently on the badminton playground, that she would naturally have expressed her admiration for the winner by her own initiative, and would have fun watching him enjoying herself. But I disapprove the general message of “intentional disciplinary insulting”. Hate-love-hate game is dangerous. A breakup may become the mildest consequence.
A duet of self-ironists is a golden mean here.
Sincerely,
Comrade Natalia

Yes they look beautiful.
But do not breathe too much life into a picture.
I have said in another post that:
Apicture is worth only a few words, not 1000 words! As the metaphor suggests.

Oh yeah and the metaphorical meta-messages in Stargate movie, where “Ra” or “Re” is actually a symbol of The Devil or the evil empire enslaving a more simple kind of people.
I am unsure of egyptian translation of
“Sha’ Re” but i am sure that the “Re” means
“of the Sun” but what does “Sha’” mean “She” perhaps? “She’s of the Sun” perhaps?
But what makes the story more ineraesting is the “adam and eve symbolism in that movie”
And why does “sha’ Re” have a metaphorical “Snake” inside her?
Well I will say that “eve” was tempted by a “Snake” in the garden and as most who know a bit about biblical parables the “Snake” represents: The Devil/The opposer of good.
See what you can get out of a great movie that actually has a plot and meta-messages?
Pretty Awesome, Huh?

Hmm, what about “Ru”-ssia? ))
One of our popular authors (a patriot of Russian mind / soul / spirit and a castigator of American materialism and other -isms) traces it back exactly to “Ra” the Sun. The Land of Sunshine Sown Around.

Curious, What author is that then?
January 14, 2007 at 10:34 am
I’ll write an article on him. A very important part of modern Russian culture (humor) he is. There’s more about him than the fact of being denied a visa to the USA, for mopping the floor with GWB. (Also to Egypt, for exposing their bargainer descendents of Faraons and Astronomers, for a short time to Ukraine, for riding on its then-President, and wondering how is he still left living in Russia with his jokes all over the Government, bureaucracy and Putin cult.)

Can Anyone Ever Explain To This Ukrainian Antic, Why In The World Should Women Burn Bras?????
Like any advertising campaign here in the west: IMPACT, AIR TIME, and UNIQUENESS are crucial in getting the message across.
I percieved this BRA BURNING as the following:
-Women’s Bras are like labels and wrappers which oftentimes gives better picture of what it insulates.
-It insulates the breast which gives life or pleasure and to both the young and the old.
-It gives me a message that our life source at one point or another, comes in a very attractive container and gives freshness to its content.
-Should it ever runs dry, I am sure it is ready to make any man happy and so the cycle goes on.
It was pivotal at that time to send a message (BRA BURNING), that our western women were tired (still is) and wanted out of the traditional gender roles.
My best to all.
Amorcito
February 1, 2007 at 9:25 am
Thank you for an insightful explanation, Amorcito!
But, if we speculate along this logic, burning bras should have stood for defending more “sexual” than “social” rights against the moral standards that made the common practices of the preceding ages. Like,
- the right to be pleased and allowed to enjoy sex without feeling “an indecent woman”, not only to be used as a source of pleasure
(”Everyone has a natural right to orgasm regardless of age, sex, race, height - let the Market, not Regulation decide on the enforcement of this right))”;
- the right to decline claims from men you dislike, or to postpone sex with your partner when you feel bad (I don’t mean the proverbial lame excuses “now go tell Tarzan about your headache, darling”);
…In Former Soviet Union, I happened to run across a crazy male stereotype “You are a beautiful woman - so YOU owe favors to Men [not men to you!]; female beauty is, like, Public Domain [it's unjust that you belong to your partner only!] Wrapped myself into business jacket+trousers suits, couldn’t allow doing without trim-tailored waist, feminine shoes, shape, grooming & makeup, - and the results didn’t change…
- and, as the extreme conflict, the right to multiple partners. Not going further into this topic, because it would lead away from my initial message…
However tempting it is to mention a Russian Revolutionary Alexandra Kollontai (with her complex agenda on communism, feminism, and nuptial contracts…)
I’d say that if the general Russian womenfolk went on such demonstrations, they would go out burning mops and ugly clothes of poor quality, to win the right of being cherished as a Source of Life, Pleasure, Freshness, Youth, Attraction etc. … a WOMAN.
Sincerely,
Comrade N.

what older women say is true………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
all men are pigs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT’S FROM EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT’S JUST THE WAY MEN R!! WHY CAN’T MEN EVER JUDGE A WOMAN BY HER PERSONALITY, INSTEAD OF HOW BIG HER TITS ARE OR HOW SKINNY SHE IS?????
And if u don’t post my comment then u men really are sexists (anti - woman comments!!)
February 8, 2007 at 1:02 pm
How would u men feel if u asked a woman out and she turned around and said, “Sorry ur whatsit isn’t big enough!” ?It’s practically the same as saying a woman is fat or over weight! u should learn that u never judge a book by its cover!!!! So don’t judge women by the way they look. u could meet the most sexiest woman in the world and she could turn out to be the biggest bitch on earth!!!!! so be carefull what u wish for!!!!!
February 8, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Wow Anon,
So can you tell us how you REALLY Feel?
It’s funny when I get challenged to post comments like yours.
Your “comments” (or should I say outbursts) are VERY useful to us..
Let’s see if you can figure out why..
Because of your obvious JEALOUSY towards physically beautiful women I can likely assume that you probably don’t belong to that category.
I understand that this might be a real bummer for you especially if you are the kind of girl who doesn’t want to take care of your own appearance. But it’s interesting because if that wasn’t enough to deter any civilized person from being around you.. You decide to add one huge overshadowing characteristic to make this a permanent feature.
Can you say.. SPITE or VENOM?
Anon here’s the deal..
I actually feel sorry for you because I can honestly tell you (with no malice or spite intended) that your life is seriously screwed unless you decide to make some big attitude changes in your life.
You carry around a nasty bag of emotions like that at such a young age (which I presume you to be) and you will have a VERY HARD Time finding the following.
Good Friends (this is obvious by the “older women” you are hanging out with btw)
Good Boyfriend or Husband
Good Job
Healthy Relationship with yourself
Normally I would jump all over comments like yours and pull out the knives but in this case..
Your comments are so out of whack emotionally that I think I need to show some tough but honest compassion towards you..
Because words like yours could only come from someone who is having a pretty tough time in life..
So there you have it.. Here’s my flower to your gun.. (and by the way i know you don’t have any bullets in it..)
One last piece of unsolicited but valuable advice.. don’t try to fight something you don’t have any control over Anon.. you will only get more frustrated and depressed.
Try to understand that there is a HUGE difference in life between things that you wish for (like Men being attracted to unattractive women) and the reality of how nature and biology actually works.
Yes life is “unfair”.. It’s always has been and always will be quite frankly.. And yes some people in life seem to get a more raw deal then others.. So if that’s the case then really the only thing anyone has to deal with this and to win in the end is their attitude..
And believe me Anon.. Attitude is honestly more important then anything else in this world.. including beauty. Because you are right I certainly would not go for any beautiful women who had a bad attitude.. and neither would any of the men here. But in the process of making your point.. could it be possible that you have a bad attitude too?
Especially if you want to call all of us men “Pigs”?
Be careful what you say anon.. because it really truly reflects on who you are..
Good Luck
GL
February 9, 2007 at 6:19 am
First of all there is nothing wrong with my life!!! It’s not, as u put it, “seriously screwed”!! And the reason i don’t have friends my age is because i don’t like back stabbing, bitchiness and females who accuse others of suppoesdly trying to take their boyfriends!!!!
I prefer to stick to myself that way i don’t have any s#@t with “friends”!!! Or get stuck in the middle of their fights!!!
And for ur information i do have a very good boyfriend and i have one of the best jobs anyone can get in my country!!!
Yes, i agree with u, life is unfair, but one thing i have learnt is that life is what u make of it!! people control their own lives, their is no such thing as destiny or fate, if u want something in life or if u want to get somewhere in life, then u have to push urself to get it!!!
Yes, i am young, but that has nothing to do with my emotions or feelings towards men and the way they judge women!!!
And another thing i am not unattractive, my only problem is that i am big bonned. In other words i don’t have a small bone structure like most women. But i don’t let it bring me down!! If people don’t like the way i look, then that’s just tough!!!
Fine, so maybe not all men are pigs! But some men are, whether u want to admit it or not!!
Let me tell u something else, u don’t know me or my personality, so don’t say that this “reflects on who i am”!!!
I am NOT jealous of physically beautiful women, jealousy gets people no where!!!
Don’t think that u know me!!!
February 9, 2007 at 7:33 am
GL,
Don’t think that i’m trying to say that i’m sorry for what i said yesterday, because i’m not!
But maybe i did go a little bit over board.
But like i said in my last comment, don’t think that you know me!!!!
February 9, 2007 at 8:22 am
Oh girl, what you - are - making of your life… (
February 9, 2007 at 8:58 am
Let me tell you something. I make the most of my life, i enjoy every minute of my life!! I live my life to the fullest!!!
At least in my country us women don’t have to put with men who think they are “God’s gift to women”!!!
What really pi#@es me off is, people who think they know everything about everyone!!!
February 9, 2007 at 11:53 am
“Speak so I could see you”, - said the same man who coined the saying “I know that I know nothing”…
Dear, your use of the exclamation mark alone tells more than a biodocumentary videoseries.
February 9, 2007 at 12:08 pm
do me a favour and find some one else to pick on and stop speaking in riddles
and who do think you are calling “dear”?
i’m not your “dear”.
i only use exclamation marks in excess when some one has crossed the line!
February 9, 2007 at 1:08 pm
This is my first time on this site and when i read through all the comments on this page i couldn’t beleive what i saw. Sure those russian women are beautiful, but what’s wrong with the women you can find in your home town?
And why do you have to pick on Anon?
All she’s doing is voicing her opinion, what’s wrong with that?
If us men are allowed to say what we feel, then it should be the same for women.
February 9, 2007 at 1:11 pm
Well, honey, the fact that you have a compulsive need to come here and vent your rage at strangers also speaks volumes about you. We may not know you, but you’re putting your true personality under an electron microscope for us here.
February 9, 2007 at 1:22 pm
I’m not venting rage, do you honestly think that i’m the only woman who gets angry when i see the way men talk about women?
maybe if u men would stop picking on me now,(or is that too much to ask?) maybe u’ll be able to see my real personality.
February 9, 2007 at 1:30 pm
Anon,
I’ve given my best shot to be civilized with you and so have others.
Here is an honest question I have for you..
Are you capable of communicating to us in a civil way?
Or are you just waiting for some easy excuse to be “pissed off” all the time as you say?
Petrus.. I assume you are friends with Anon and she got you on board here.
There is BIG difference between “voicing one’s opinion” as you say and “screaming” with rage. It is not possible to voice a decent opinion under those circumstances.
If you care about Anon I’d truly recommend that you ask her to take a step back and a breather.
She is welcome to voice a semi-civilized opinion and to back up her assertions but if she just wants to scream and be incredibly defensive with any more “men are pigs” type posturing then I’ll remove her from this blog.
Sound reasonable? I think it is.. and if you two had your own blog I’m sure you would do the same.
GL
February 9, 2007 at 1:30 pm
Petrus:
So when Anon screams, she’s just expressing her opinion. And when anyone responds to her, they’re picking on her. Hmmm.. interesting. Better lay off the koolaid!
Anon:
Are you kidding?? We’re just warming up! I see the patented GL “Anon profile” in your future.
February 9, 2007 at 1:56 pm
GL,
ok fine u guys win! i’ll back off.
Happy now?
by the way i have no idea who petrus is.
and yes, i am capable of communicating in a civil way.
Craig,
ur a real joker aren’t u? (and i mean that in a good way!)
ok, from now on i’ll keep my cool, but i have to let u guys know that i don’t have a sense of humour like other women, i grew up in a very mischievous family.
Truce?
February 9, 2007 at 2:53 pm
Petrus- interesting “handle” choice. If you rearrange the letters and substitute a “U” for the “P”, you get UTERUS.
Anon-”big boned” usually describes fat girls. But it’s the inside that counts right?
Sorry, I had to get that one in before starting my day. I don’t have alot of time to read my favorite blog. I’ll go back to my corner now
February 9, 2007 at 4:55 pm
Ok Anon,
I appreciate your common sense and calm in this matter. Don’t worry about the other comments that’s from the old momentum of your earlier comments but if you want to set a new course right at this moment that’s great with me..
GL
February 9, 2007 at 9:14 pm
There is nothing wrong with the women in my home town, the women in my church, the woman next door (except she’s married…off limits), nothing wrong with the school teacher. I just don’t like the way they squeeze the toothpaste, but I am sure there is a perfect match for them.
and I’m not a pig, actually I’m a pretty good guy and most people, men and women, respect me. Some women even think I’m the neighborhood DrPhillip and ask me if they should cheat on their husbands with other married men.
At this stage in my life I am attracted to a certain type of woman, and it has a lot to do with personality truely more so than looks. It just so happens that the looks are there and reflect years of her taking care of herself, and she happens to be Russian.
February 12, 2007 at 6:00 am
kzarz,
if a woman has a big bone structure it does not mean that she is fat. being fat is someone who has a bulging stomach and flab under the arms. and i am certaintly not like that.
GL,
I know i started off in a bad way and i’m sorry, it wont happen again. but please do me a favour and ask the men on this blog to lay off with the fat thing.
Ceiver,
at least there are some men out there who don’t go by looks. not everything counts on looks. the best part of a person is their sense of humour and personality.
February 12, 2007 at 7:23 am
kzarz
well if you had ever been to South Africa to a town called Komatipoort, then you would know that the name Petrus is sort of common here.
And that it has nothing to do with a “UTERUS”
February 12, 2007 at 7:33 am

Look i didn’t mean to intrude on your disagreement with Anon, but just because i did doesn’t mean i know her.
And i was looking up alien sites when i came across your site.
February 12, 2007 at 2:41 pm
Well it seems like no is sociable on a Monday.
It seems like it’s the worst time of the week for almost everyone.
Anyway,don’t work to hard.
good-bye till tomorrow.
February 14, 2007 at 5:25 pm
Anon,
I’m still confused about the fat and big-boned thing. Can you send us an unretouched photo so I can actually see what big-boned is? All the women that I know that are big-boned are fat, flabby with “arm baggage”.
February 15, 2007 at 5:05 am
kzarz,
There are women who are big boned that do have “arm baggage” as you call it, but there are women who are big boned that don’t have it.
Most women who are big boned don’t have any shape to their bodies except being round, then you get big boned women who do have shape.
There is such a thing as a big boned woman with no “arm baggage” and no bulging stomach.
And that’s what i am. I have shape, no “arm baggage” and no bulging stomach. So in other words i’m not fat. My bone structure is a bit bigger than most women. Where you would be able to wrap two fingers around a woman’s wrist, if someone did that to me, there would be a bit of a gap between their fingers.
Unfortunately i’m unable to send a picture because this computer that i use belongs to my work.
February 16, 2007 at 6:31 pm
Munching my salad and reading Anon’s comments–well fellers, kind of makes you appreciate the Mongoose a liitle more, eh?

February 16, 2007 at 10:44 pm
Anon,
It would be better if you could send us a pic. Really, I see big boned women who are fat with or without arm baggage. I have yet to see a big boned woman without a some belly flaps and arm baggage. Please prove me wrong.
mongoose, where’s your picture?
February 17, 2007 at 3:22 pm
“Munching my salad and reading Anon’s comments–well fellers, kind of makes you appreciate the Mongoose a liitle more, eh?”
Probably one of those 10,000 calorie taco salads. What did you do, throw a few shreds of lettuce onto 3 pounds of ground beef and refried beans?
February 19, 2007 at 6:07 am
Mongoose,
Well it’s good to know that there are other women who comment on this blog.
Don’t you thinks it’s amazing how men judge women by the way they describe themselves?
kzarz,
Big boned women in your city might be the way you describe them, but in my country not all big boned women are like that!
If i had the right set up on my computer i would send you a picture to prove you wrong.
Hero,
Not every woman eats like that. Just because a woman is big boned doesn’t mean that she eats fatty meals. At least if a woman puts on weight she does something to lose it. Most men who put on weight don’t even bother.
You guys seem to like picking on women who think differently to you.At least the men in my country don’t judge women by the way they look, they judge women by their personalities.
February 19, 2007 at 1:48 pm
I think I’ve heard of that country, Anon. Is it Erewhon, or Utopia?
February 19, 2007 at 2:04 pm
anon,
Maybe you should get a man to help you with your computer problems. We’re better at those things.
“At least the men in my country don’t judge women by the way they look, they judge women by their personalities”
HAHAHAHHA. Man, that’ so old. You obviously do not understand men and you never will. What is your country anyway? Seriously, men will always look at women’s appearances. We judge by what comes out of your mouth from your brain. And since I can’t see you, then I will judge you as a bitter, deluded and possibly dried up fat,old woman who has nothing better to do than scream at men trying to find themselves a true woman. I’m just saying.
February 19, 2007 at 2:18 pm
Craig,
No actually i’m from durban in South Africa.
kzarz,
For one thing i am not old, i just turned 21.
You know, if it wasn’t for GL, i would really give you something to think about! But at least when i asked for a truce, he stopped picking on me. Unlike you. You are so lucky that this is on a blog and not in person because what you just said to me would have earned you a one way ticket to hospital.
Slap Duis!!
February 19, 2007 at 2:32 pm
I doubt that you are woman enough to hurt me. Besides, I would place you in a figure-four-leg-lock ala Ric Flair. Enough to make you scream “unlce”.
GL is a true gentleman, I’m more selective in my gentlemanly manners. Just change my description to “fat, young woman” and I still stand by my comments on your big-boniness and arm baggage until you prove me wrong.
But you’re right, I’ll truce.
poka,poka

Anon says:
“At least if a woman puts on weight she does something to lose it. Most men who put on weight don’t even bother. ”
Just curious, did you break your computer screen when your nose grew longer?
Men in the USA take MUCH better care of themselves than the women. Everywhere you look, there’s some guy who looks like a Baywatch lifeguard paired with a 300-lb landwhale! I can’t believe it when I meet some guy who gets up at 5:00 AM every morning to run 6 miles, while the wife can’t even go up a flight of stairs without help!
February 19, 2007 at 3:16 pm
I have to agree with Hero. I see men who are in much better shape because they are so busy running away from the landwhales. If I had a body like a lifeguard, I wouldn’t be running around with the local Shamu. I’d be practicng my figure-four-leg-lock on anon (just kidding)
February 19, 2007 at 4:04 pm
I hate taco salads. My favorite is raspberry vinagrette with chicken and lots of berries. I must live in an out of the way place, because I see more fat men here than fat women. However, if a guy treated me right and has a sense of humor, a few extra pounds wouldn’t bother me. I’d shag it off him very quickly!!!
Marie
Hi anon–you should pick a name sweetie.
February 19, 2007 at 4:09 pm
“No actually i’m from durban in South Africa.”
Q: How many feminists does it take to change a light bulb?
A: THAT’S NOT FUNNY!!
“would have earned you a one way ticket to hospital.”
VIOLENCE AGAINST MEN!! VIOLENCE AGAINST MEN!! WHERE’S DADDY?? WHERE’S THE GOVERNMENT!!
“i just turned 21.”
Ah. That explains how you can live in a little bubble insulated from reality. Do you actually believe men in S. Africa don’t care what a woman looks like? That is possibly the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
February 19, 2007 at 4:16 pm
And why are girls who insist that looks don’t matter so defensive about what they look like?
Could it be … DENIAL ??
(btw, a computer doesn’t have to be “set up” any special way to upload a photo. That’s a pretty bogus excuse.)
February 19, 2007 at 7:01 pm
Most people men and women want an attrative partner. But I belive men fall in love first with their eyes and women fall in love with their ears. (anon–you need to be less abrasive or the guys here will pick on you until you leave.
Marie
February 20, 2007 at 4:41 am
Anon, with the way you rant, scream, and threaten to send people to the hospital, you are incredibly immature for 21.
February 20, 2007 at 6:14 am
Mongoose,
Well maybe if the guys would stop going on about this weight,fat and big boned thing i might stop picking on them.But that’s the thing with some men,they like to pick a fight with women.
The reason i didn’t put my own name is because a lot of my male frinds enjoy reading these sort of blogs and i’m not going to make them angry.
Craig,
My computer at work is an old model,it’s windows ‘97. For the work we do here my computer is too far back dated.Because we deal with Linux and Open Source.
To tell you the truth, i’m not even bothered to give a response to the other comments, because i’m not even going to get riled up about it.
February 20, 2007 at 7:17 am
Anon,
I am willing to say that some men here made the mistake of continuing to engage you on the point of your own personal bodily traits.
For example,
“what exactly do you mean by you are ‘big boned’”,
“what exactly do you mean by you are ‘big boned’”,
“what exactly do you mean by you are ‘big boned’”
seems to have been repeated over and over again in one form or another, and it really shouldn’t have been because it is a point that is at best tangential and at worst completely irrelevant to this blog.
With this, I must say to all men on this blog that we have more pressing and relevant matters at hand than to question Anon on her weight and bone structure, so the subject needs to be dropped.
However, Anon, I must say that your weight or bone structure would never have been discussed at all had you not brought it up on your own first, and then continued to go on and on about it. Why you did this, I really don’t know. In other words, your continued and involved engagement in the debate of the difference between “fat” and “big boned” seems quite inconsistant with your request of
“Well maybe if the guys would stop going on about this weight,fat and big boned thing i might stop picking on them.”
Also Anon, I am in the scientific computing program at my college, and have worked with all sorts of computers and operating systems throughout my life. A Windows 97 operating system, although dated from our point of view, is still capable of uploading photo.
Nonetheless, we are dropping the subject of your weight and bone structure. As a consequence of that, this should be the end of all requests that Anon to send us a photo of herself; Anon’s photo is not relevant.
With that being said Anon, as I have said before, you need to have a more mature attitude when posting comments on this blog.
Statements about sending someone to the hospital are totally inappropriate. Also in the future, if you don’t want something about yourself to be discussed:
a.) Don’t bring it up in the first place.
b.) Don’t continue to vehemently engage people on a subject if you want them to drop it, as it will prompt them to continue to make replies about it.

Luke, I thought it was GL-sensei speaking ))This time you’ve sent all kids to school )) - respect!
“…and when I was a man, I spoke as a man…” ))
To calm the boys and defend Anon’s frame, I testify that I’ve seen enough miniature women all puffy-wrapped in cellulitis. On the other hand, I’ve got several girl pals as big-boned as to have hands 1.5 the size of mine (I wear smallest gloves) - and some of these girls are as handsome as Lara Kroft, 170 cm tall, some are stone-fleshed Venuses like no less stout woman can be, and some are skinnier than myself.

February 20, 2007 at 1:59 pm
Siberianow,
If you remember,when i apologized to GL for my first comments,I asked that the subject of my weight and bone structure be left out.But kzarz is the one who insisted about going on about it.So now that subject can be dropped and forgotten.
Wonderlander,
At least someone out there knows what i’m talking about.

I live in a state with a lot of Scandinavian and German Americans. They are big-boned–ei–tall and strong looking, not fat.

This could be in the wrong category, but I think it fits. I arrived in Odessa yesterday, and about 98% of the women aren’t worth looking at twice. Oh, sorry, not the Odessa you’re probably thinking about. Odessa, TX. I was in Walmart last night, and almost wanted to tear my eyes out. Most of the guys there were within a reasonable weight. Quite a few looked like they threw calves for a living. But the women????????? Overweight, with rolls of fat hanging off of them. During my 2 hours in there, I counted a total of 3 that looked like they were a decent weight. I only found 1 of them attractive. Sad. Many of those women could stand to lose 50+ pounds. I bet if you asked any one of them if they should lost weight, they’d say something like, “Well, if you don’t like the way I look, you won’t get a real woman. Real women have big bones and have curves. You’re just a (insert explicative here) and a male chulvanist that thinks that women should be thin and look like supermodels. Get out of my face.”
I had a similar conversation with a girl once. Later she had a heart attack at 24 from cloged arteries. Obesity isn’t just a looks problem, it’s a health problem. If wating the best for my future wife and myself is male chulvanism, I’m exctly that to the hilt, and proud of it.

What did you expect to see at a Walmart? Go to a real department store or boutique, and you will see American beauties. You were at the trough, so don’t be surprised that you saw pigs.

I think the only difference at a real department store or boutique is that the pigs will have gold rings in their snouts.
February 20, 2007 at 9:19 pm
Besides, Wal Mart is the “real” America. Right?

Anon, you better hold onto that copy of “Windows 97″, because you have the only one in existence!
But attaching a file to an email, or uploading one via your browser, works the same regardless of operating system.
And you’re just like every other womyn who’s charged in here full of anger and then cried “Stop picking on me! You guys like picking on women! YOU HATE WOMEN!!” I bet every problem you have in your life is because you’re a woman and someone is oppressing you. Boo friggety hoo.
You’re the poster girlll for Jack Nicholson’s comment “think of a man, then take away reason and accountability.”

Walmart–to quote my grandmother “I no lika da cheap stuff”. You guys are looking in all the wrong places. Everyday I see chic well-dressed women going to work or other places. The ladies who work in my building are all slim and classy looking. And I see just as many, if not more beer guzzling fat-assed men as women.

OK, Marie, so where’s the picture of you in the white fur coat and stiletto heels? (And nothing else but a smile..
)
February 20, 2007 at 10:10 pm
Yeah, Marie, put your money where your mouth is.
February 20, 2007 at 10:12 pm
Marie, so far you’ve revealed that
(1)You’re a superficial human being who needs to own lots of expensive stuff so she can feel superior to everyone else. “Wal-Mart? Eww!!”
(2) You hang around in the same places as “beer-guzzling, fat-assed men”.
(3) You work in a building with lots of slim, classy looking women.
I figured it out: You’re a high-priced call girl!

And you are all Jedi knights with the force strong in you–Alien Princesses half your age supporting your delusion–or at least some nice pictures to look at and fantasize over since society has not evloved to suit you. Very interesting that you take spiritual inspiration from movies for teen-aged boys–oh yeah–I guess I just don’t get it–I get it all right–I just don’t buy it. Let’s see some pictures of you guys in jock straps–now that would be something.
May the force be with you LOLOLOLOL
February 20, 2007 at 11:30 pm
Aww, c’mon, don’t be that way. (Them little mongoose teeth are still prety sharp!)
Ruffle your fur and you go back to painting with a broad brush.
February 20, 2007 at 11:32 pm
And since I don’t have a jockstrap, I’d have to go commando. Unfortunately I’m using Windows 2007, so I can’t upload the picture.

So Marie, if what Hero says is true, are you trolling for clients? I mean, what other reason is there for sticking around this site? If you really think we are all delusional, then why stick around unless business has been real slow lately. Maybe you should troll for men in other areas. STD bars would be one suggestion.
February 21, 2007 at 9:17 am
Well, I wasn’t trolling for women in walmart. The truck stop was out of headlights, and I needed one as I had just been ticketed for driving a comercial vehicle with a non functioning headlamp. So, I wandered around wally world for a while looking at food, etc., looking for a snipe bar as someone lifted mine out of my headache rack, cause I had nothing else to do for the next few hours as insulting mongoose really wasn’t high on my list of priorities at the time. I will however ask her where she works, and if the gorgeous, classy women that work in her building are feminasties. From my experience, a nice looking classy lady wouldn’t look twice at a nice looking guy that has ‘truck driver’ or “transportation facilitator” as a job description. Kind of amusing to me that womyn that think they want to travel and yet long haul truck driver doesn’t even register as a good possibility. I get paid to see the world.
Womyn hear the occupation of truck driver and automatically want to deduct 175 IQ points from my intelligence, which I personally find very insulting. My facination has less to do with some imagined “miracle Russian cure all ailments bride”, and more to do with the differnece in he quality relationships I had with the North American and the Russian girls I had as gf’s. The relationship quality was much higher with the Russians. I really, really regret letting one of them slip away. She wanted to get married, and I wasn’t ready at the time, so I let her go. That is a decision I still regret every day, nd there is no going back, as she is now married anyways.

wolverine,
I’ts funny you should say that.Because here in Durban most women think the same way about farmers.They think that they are stupid men and have very low IQ’s.But they are not like that.When i got involved with a farmer’s son, my friends thought that i was crazy.I wasn’t too sure about it at first,but he turned out to be a really nice guy.And we were together for three years.People, male or female, shouldn’t judge other people just because of the type of job they have.

Good for you taznay. Kind of funny that you should mention that. Girls hear that I’m a farm boy as well and they want to deduct about another 150 IQ points from my intlligence. That leaves me with an aproximate IQ of -142. Aparently, to them, I’m dumber than a bucket of hammers.
Oh
