With so many attractive Russian women on international dating websites, a person might ask : do Russian women avoid dating local men? Russian women love the men of their country and are very loyal. But there are only 22 single men for every 25 single women in Russia and this gender gap has created a significant international dating industry. Your odds therefore of finding a beautiful Russian bride are very high, but if you are searching for that perfect women you have to keep in mind your competition. Not only are you competing against other western men, local Russian men are trying to catch her attention as well. In any war, know your foe. To know what you are up against, lets take a look at the typical Russian man. Are Russian Men Sexist? Russian culture is world of extremes. Despite the stereotype, Russian men on the whole are not alcoholic chauvinists. They are good men and this is reflected in the divorce rate actually being a few percentage points lower in Russian versus that in the USA (43.3% vs 45.8%). Problems start to arise though when you combine a male shortage in this country together with a traditional culture that see men as superior to women. Status in old Russia came through marriage.. Russian women tend to marry young and a woman was not considered respectable unless she was married. This is changing in more progressive cities such as Moscow or St Petersberg, but smaller villages still see women take on traditional roles. HIstorically, this meant giving up a career and being a housewife. In return, men are expected to complement their wives often with flowers and affection. Are Russian Men Loyal? To answer this question, first take a society that values men above women. Now add a shortage of available men into the equation. While the majority of men are loyal to their spouse, the opportunity for infidelity is high. Put simply, the odds are in the man's favour in Russia. Women outnumber men and a man can easily find a woman for an affair if he is married. It is not unusual for a woman to have casual sex with a man with the expectation of starting a long term relationship. How Can You Learn From This? Despite your first thoughts, Russian women are not looking for the total opposite of Russian men. Instead, learn from Russian men. Pay your sweetheart compliments and bring her and her family gifts when you meet her. Be sincere and focus on how much you value family (especially if she is divorced and has a child from her previous marriage).
