 Fact or Fiction? Russian Women Want To Escape From Russia

When western men search through the internet for Russian brides, they will be very surprised by the huge amount of Russian dating sites; they have become very popular over the last ten years. Maybe you will think to yourself? Why?

From what you hear in the press and media about Russian and Russian women it would seem like every women will do anything to escape the poverty and depravation in Russia due to the bad economic position. Well I'm sorry to disappoint you on this type of thinking; this is just the stereo type of thinking we in the west have grown up with over the years. During the seventy years of communist rule in Russia the country was very closed to the western world during this time the stereo type Russian women was born of how the Russian women looked and thought. Many people are still even unaware that Russia is no longer the Soviet Union, or is even not a communist country anymore.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the new Russia being born the country has become very open to the west and with the help of the internet, the world astonishingly discovered just how beautiful, feminine, slender and educated Russian women are! Foreign men, who were finally allowed to travel to Russia, saw, with amazement, the beauty of the Russian women. They looked upon these women just like kids in a candy store. The typical stereotype disappeared .Although even now many men in the west still have an idea of a stereotype Russian women.

Unfortunately, a new type of stereotype emerged; "All Russian women want to escape from Russia" and because of this new labeling, the Internet is flooded with Russian Dating agencies, offering to find you a "Russian bride". Or a "Russian mail order bride"

Well the truth of the matter is that the percentage of Russian women who are looking for their partners through the internet is no greater than the women from western countries. One interesting fact is that Russia has nearly 20 million more men than women and there is a lot of competition for Russian women to find a good Russian man.

Only a few very big Russian cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg have Internet services which are more or less affordable for an average person. However in the last few years the situation has started to change very fast, Russia is the largest country in the world stretching 11 time zones and internet providers have begun to take good care of this situation and affordable internet services have become in the reach of most Russians.

Russia has now changed considerably. It is a country that is open to the world, Russians are now stimulated to learn English. With the fast expanding internet service all over Russia and Internet cafes spreading like wild fire it is now possible for Russian women to search for their "soul partner" without the help of a marriage agency. They don't need translating services as they did in the past. Many women prefer to spend money on English lessons, than to pay very high prices for dating services.

All over the world in general people are the same when it comes to privacy. Nobody likes to show private letters to a stranger or to convey their most private thoughts and Internet conversations to a dating service employee for translation. And it is impossible to communicate in a good fashion through 3 way telephone conversations .So now it is just as common to chat to a Russian girl on the internet as it is to chat to a girl from your own country.

With Internet services growing dramatically throughout Russia, Women are beginning to communicate with the rest of the world through their own computers. With a little research on Russia and Russian women and many western men now in a position to communicate with Russian women the myth that "All Russian Women are Eager to Escape" will totally disappear. So if you are interested in Russian dating then it would be a good idea to do some research on Russia, you may be surprised as to what you will learn.
