I agree Russian woman are very pretty,I should know,my wife is Russian!! They have become more pretty since the end of the Soviet era as they have more access to cosmetics and dietary improvements have gotten better.According to my understanding here in Kazan and through out Russia there is a MASSIVE shortage men.It becomes very acute when you go to smaller towns,and there is noticeably no men.And the woman can become somewhat aggressive at times.I have even seen woman guarding there husbands,and checking on them.Before I was married and I was a student at Kazan State University I dated girls 20 year's younger than me!! Not uncommon for a man to have young wife,its acceptable.I am 50,my wife is 36,its great,people prefer it this way here,as a man at this age is more sedate,and dependable.Woman have a tendency to marry at 24 and divorce after 5,and go home and live with momma.Dad is usually absent,mostly dead!! take a walk in the cemetery and its mind blowing of all the graves of young men.!!!

Alcoholism, drugs, aids, and just plain piss poor personal behavior are a common problem. The "lack" of eligible males is also a reason why the largest number of "Mail Order Brides" is from the former Soviet Union.
I remember when I was posted in Great Britain, during the late 70s, because the British economy just plain sucked, even the homeliest of U.S. troops could get very attractive dates on any given night. Once the policies of Margaret Thatcher took hold, the large numbers of British females on post went WAY down.
IE, no need to find an American sugar daddy.
