Author Topic: What are the Biggest Myth out there regarding Slavic or Eastern European Women? (Read 28216 times)

2tallbill · « **on:** October 06, 2009, 03:06:18 PM »

There are a zillion myths out there about the Former Soviet Union, Slavic women,
and various aspect of culture in the FSU. I surely didn't list them all.

The poll is to add interest, but I hope in this thread we can help dispel some of
the more common myths about FSUW.

Sorry in advance for any misspelled words in the poll section since there is
not any spell check for that section. Please note that I am having problems
editing the thread topic and I am not sure why

Great poll Bill. But, I still had to vote that you are a big, tall idiot.

Bill

Now did you not forget a few myths.

Russian Women are never jealous

Russian Women are not stubborn

Russian Women will always admit when they are wrong.

Russian Women never get an idea, that could be wrong.

I am sure my dreams later will provide more.

Actually, DM and I had a conversation some years back in which we discussed this very issue. After he finished laughing (which took a while) I said to him "Nu? Your first wife is from here, what do you think about this?" His response (translated from the Russian) -- "They can have her."

Bill you're old enough to remember the mental image all men in the west had of Russian women back in the days of the USSR, before the wall fell. Russian women didn't shave their legs or underarms, had a pronounced mustache over the upper lip and the body of a stevedore, only with bigger muscles.

Please FSUW no

or

this was all Bill's idea. I'm just trying to help Manny boost his post count so that the RUA post count will pass the count on the forum that can't be named.

Now 22 voters have signed off. All FSUW are docile, subservient, non argumentative creatures has the most votes at 13 so far. 8)

Yet looking at the so few comments made, by all these voters (mainly anonymous) , one can easily conclude, who rules at home.

I don't know exactly where this myth came from but, anyone who has had an
argument with a FSUW KNOWsit's not the case and will give
more credence to the possibility of the tooth fairy putting money under your pillow.

True but if he starts to think that he knows what he's doing he might leave and go work for someone who actually pays, so we've got to try and keep him humble.

I decided to vote, since I live in the FSU and am surrounded by FSUW of all ages. I confess that I voted based not only on my own observations of FSUW in their natural environment but also on the reactions of FSUW to the options listed.

(I chose the options that made FSUW laugh the hardest.

Usually one must vote to see that. It is a setting the poll creator chooses when making a poll.

Stubben · « **Reply #18 on:** October 08, 2009, 03:56:08 AM »

Darn, I think I'll have to wait until I actually meet any FSUW before I vote!

Now 27 voters, and 17 for the same.

Translated - means once they have an idea in their head, the odds of dislodging it becomes, a mission impossible scenario.

Nope my observation was more along the idea if people say these are myths, not much in the way of comments "why" are being made.

Actually, a dishwasher might work to your benefit. Just don't think they're going to get all excited over that electric hand mixer, okay?

My bet is they would get excited over an electric hand mixer if they saw you
baking / cooking / preparing something with it. (thinking he can cook! )
