Found this report recently about the problem of too many men in China and India and the social problems it creates in society:
http://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/long-reads/article/2142658/too-many-men-china-and-india-battle-consequences
I see the UK and the US, Canada, Australia, etc having the same problem but here it's a hidden problem. Here in theory there are enough looking at the stats, but in reality the amount of available women is probably similar to China and India.
Here it may be surmised as a rough estimate that about a this if the women are too fat and obese for most men to contemplate as a going concern. Another third of women are only able to feel love for their job and/or don't want children as the next rung in the career ladder is all that is in their sights.
That leaves roughly a third of women that roughly qualify for what most men want, a reasonable woman who they can have children with. Note this is working on the basis that gay & lesbians will roughly equal each other out. Same for those with bad mental health problems, bad character traits, etc, etc.
So what we are left with is a situation much like in China and India that there are a lot of guys chasing too few eligible women.
I'm not sure what the solution to this could be, should it become acceptable to have two or three men in a relationship with one woman? or a concerted action to reverse the obesity and corporate culture in the west, rationing of food perhaps? Thoughts?

Not the same.
One is a population gender imbalance brought about by years of mandated state policy and cultural predisposition to value sons over daughters.
The other is a perceived shortage. There are just as many men too fat, obese, poor, vagrant and/or too obtuse to be a good fit for women. So, if it simplies to 1/3 of available women are "worth" pursuing, then equally a 1/3 of men are "worth" to be pursued by.

They are of course different things that is correct. I'm pretty sure there are way more fat women to fat men though. There are if course fat men but I tend to see groups of fat women out and about and far more frequent than fat men. Whether women see fat men as not in as bad a light a men see fat women could be another issue since men are generally supposed to be more bigger as an ideal (though more muscle than fat wise ideally no doubt).

I am sure many Russian and Ukrainian women will barely believe their eyes looking at the thread subject. How come, they would say. In Eastern Europe the situation is exactly the opposite, not enough men for pretty, educated, family minded women! :(
But after they read the quoted article, they may say, 'Oh, that is in China and India. Not here. The least I would want for my daughter, sister, mother or girlfriend is to see them married to a Chinese or Indian'.
In my personal opinion, when it would come to any talks on gender imbalance, the problem would be not 'lack' of certain gender. The issue would rather be that for a certain marriageable person, there may not be enough eligible and available people to choose from.
No one wants to be associated down. People want to get the best partner that they can find for themselves in this life.

Appreciate the input Lily.
2tallbill gave a excellent explanation of why the situation is the opposite in Eastern Europe in another thread recently. Bill explained that:
”I explained how so. The mathematical census number of men vs women
is nearly the same. However, the number of desirable men decreases
at a higher rate than women.
More men go to prison than women. 1
More men than women are alcoholics or drug addicts.2
More men than women aren't interested in marriage.
More gay men than practicing gay women
Since there are less desirable high quality men available for marriage
than women it creates a perceived scarcity. This scarcity increases
as women age and it changes their habits and actions.
Larry once wrote about this years ago in another forum.
I'm going to try to paraphrase his post.
If there are 100 women in a room who desired marriage but
only 99 men 2 of which don't desire marriage at all and 2 of
them were otherwise undesirable whether they are gay, drunks,
addicts, in prison or something else then there are 100 women
who wanted marriage vs 95 desirable men, so there is going
to be 5 women who can't get what they want."
As always I added to this genius :D
I reckon that on top of that FSW particularly from the poorer cities would find more men that are undesirable to them, too poor, can't afford what they want (not necessarily their needs), etc.
Anyway, it's kind be of funny that being unmarried carries a social stigma in the FSU but also China and India but there is more stigma from racial issues.
Myself I've always admired Chinese culture (Japanese also) their history and their martial arts are great. It's such a curious culture to explore, yet for me it would likely be searching in the wrong place for a woman given the scarcity of women in China, not least to mentiin the distance.

Nope. Obesity rates are pretty much equal in men in women (41% and 38%).
http://www.stateofobesity.org/obesity-rates-trends-overview/
If women in general are not interested in you personally - doesn’t mean that other men have the same issues.
Not everyone should or is entitled to procreation you know.

Most women can procreate by choice if they get a sperm donor. Theoretically women by default have the upper hand, medical science has enhanced woman's power further, feminism further still into replacing the man in his role. In the FSU men only retain the upper hand by going out to work and providing for the woman. The FSW are wise enough to see by going out and getting all is ultimately not too their advantage.
With the stats it all depends on where the figures are broken down. It's easy to make it look much the same by taking a low base line on obesity but the women you can visually see often far surpass obese men in size, they are super obese.

Men can just as easily procteate by paying for an egg and a surrogate. Multiple examples among gay men, single and married alike. You don’t need a woman to have a child , just $
Obese men are as prevalent and equally as unattractive as obese women - you just don’t look at men that much obviously :)
-
Some men and women may say they've experienced a shortage of the opposite gender. Some men and women may say they've experienced too much of the opposite gender. Go figure.

Lol, can't imagine experiencing too much of the other gender :)

Not many men have the vast amounts of £ needed for a surrogate mother. In contrast a woman can buy sperm for a few £, demonstrates the imbalance perfectly.
If you travel to Wales you will see many more fat women than fat men, both more numerous and more larger. They've even filmed a TV show over it called 'Big in the Valleys' featuring mainly all fat women.

The usual, Trench, " I'm bored" post .. lacking in thought and no relation to reality..
At least the utter folly of your latest tosh has already been put to bed ..
Hands up guys visiting the FSU who have seen tour buses of Chinese males seeking FSU wives ..

Chinese males do indeed seek FSW, there has been articles posted up here of very wealthy Chinese men going on tours especially set up for very wealthy Chinese men. However, many FSW still are against getting with Chinese and Indian men for racial reasons, I've even seen a few women profiles where they state no Muslims, Indian men, etc.
I've seen the odd Chinese man abroad looking, so I've no doubt they all look and have some hope. It seems it's much more of a niche market though. Lily herself states that there is an issue there and she is a FSW I believe.
-
Trench, women outnumber men worldwide. In China, a woman is undesirable after 27. Men don't want to invest in a woman unless she is of prime child bearing age. So unless you want a family, that article is meaningless
I know I triggered a few people here on another thread, but the greatest value of FSU women is 18-25, and we should get more young men coming to this site to realize this.

Trench,
There's a good chap .. know when busted - lie down in a dark room and think , " Why do I post tosh?"
How do you know the Chinese guy was looking ?
He could be on a biz trip ... If you spot me in - say - Georgia - on a Friday night - easting out .. with 2 other guys..
It does not mean I'm:
1/ Gay
2/ Checking out women
It probably means I'm away from loved one's and relaxing at the end of the week and seeing new places

Not disputing the statistics, but . . .
In my area it seems very clear that there are many, many more overweight women than men.
My wife agrees with this; in fact she is the one who brought it to my attention more than once.
She is appalled when seeing obese woman with average build man, and wonders why the man accepted such. I tell her is is supply driven; the men have really no choice overall.
Also quite unbelievable when viewing the 'Queen Candidates' at local high schools for Homecoming Queen. A large percentage are really porkers. This would have never happened in my teenage years.

When males can carry a baby to term, there will be no monetary imbalance.
There are more overweight males in the UK than females, so your subjective observation is useless.
Have a look at population pyramids for Russia and Ukraine. The male/female ratio is similar until age 50. The issue is really more about the desirability of some men and in some cases, the desirability of the women looking abroad (too educated/too old/too . . . )

What you "see" is nothing more than subjective perception. All statistics show the percentage of obese males vs females is exactly equal, within a couple percentage points. Hard facts

Comparison within Europe
According to the Global Burden of Disease Study published in 2013, the United Kingdom had proportionately more obese and overweight adults than anywhere in western Europe with the exception of Iceland and Malta. Using data from 1980 to 2013, in the UK 66.6% of men and 52.7% of women were found to be either overweight or obese.

As I understand it, the stats you refer to are to entire USA.
Can there not be differences in specific locations ?

I don't buy the unicorn spiel.
The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.
There are plenty of available, nice, good looking women and men everywhere outside your front door.
-
Anyone who has traveled to the FSU immediately sees the difference in weight and desirable women once they get off of the plane. Yes, there are many attractive women in the US/EU but there also a lot of very heavy women.
Some of my older friends tell me about how dating in the 80's was much better since they saw more attractive women of normal body weight. They tell me that the 90's was when finding attractive women of normal body weight became more difficult. Since I grew up in the 90's, I didn't experience this time but I definitely noticed a lot more heavier women over the years. Most of us can accept some weight but not how much heavier many women have become.

Oh dear, put on a bit of recent have we Mobers ;)

there's actually a LOT of women out there, a LOT!!!!
and some REALLY hot ones, pretty much everywhere you look!!!!
BUT...
hot women want hot men
and don't want to be bothered with men who fall below "the threshold"
same for us men to, right?
young women are primarily attracted to "strong" looking guys, not necessarily "cute" looking
because they want to feel "protected" and "safe" with a man
this is what they're looking for in a man, someone who makes them feel this way
someone to protect and care for them.
but...
probably 95% of ALL GUYS DO NOT give off a "protector vibe" at all!!!!!
so hot women will not even bother looking at 95% of the general male population
I swear to Bog,
if you're about age 40 or under, the BEST way to get women in Ukraine to notice you is to have absolutely perfect biceps and pecs and wear a tight fitting banlon shirt with gold aviator glasses and a low end Rolex
combined with tight black jeans and NICE cowboy boots and a confident walk
then go and walk somewhere where there's a lot of women
you will freakin stop traffic
and that's before they find out you're also CRAZY FREAKIN' RICH!!!!
BOOM!
you don't have to do anything!
because the women will come to you!
they will start off by giving you coy looks and smiles waiting for a response from you...
and all you have to do is smile back and start a conversation...
it's that easy...

Of course there are regional differences. When I was in the North
Dakota during the oil boom there were NO WOMEN of any sort
available. You had to bring one with you or go without. According
to the Williston Newspaper they did a survey during the height of
the oil boom that the ratio of men to women was 70 to 1.
There are certainly places where the people are fatter than other
places. I tend not to pay much attention to the men so I don't
really notice if one is slim and one is a fatty.
-
Oh dear, put on a bit of recent have we Mobers ;)
Ah, yes, Trench..
rather than deal with your bollox assertions - you are 'worried' about my weight ..
No need - but 'Thanks'

As an aside, a number of years ago before I met my wife a friend of mine , a very talented musician had invited or actually badgered me for sometime to accompany him and his band to a gig and I did. That particular night it was to a place way out in the Arkansas Delta to what could best described as a "honky tonk". I had no idea what I was in for but, that's another story. Something I noticed immediately is there was and over abundance (and yes I mean this literally) of women who were very very large. Many could be aptly described as obese.
Of the approximately 100 women that were there it was mind boggling to me how many there were grossly over weight. Most all of them were with otherwise normal looking and average weight men. Only a few were not with dates but there were a numerous men working and dancing those like their asses were on fire and they'd run out any minute. I noticed only two tables of with a total of 6 women that were slim and attractive and they were getting no play, zero. I stayed busy all night long as they were on me like wolves on one sheep. I'd never seen so many heavy women in such high demand. It was not a place where one might make any fat jokes. A place where men seemingly actually preferred heavy women.
For me it was like shooting fish in a barrel with the attractive slimmer ladies. The entire night was really really bizarre.

Once again you make some great points Krim :)
I think the protector vibe is important and can give a guy a great leg up. I find that now I'm getting into my early forties that I feel that I am obtaining some of that protector vibe. I am personally feeling that a guy in his forties is likely at the peek of his power. Younger guys will see a guy in his forties as having natural authority and tend not to question them. A guy in his forties will often seen and done a lot and has the self assurance of knowing how to go about most things. A guy in his forties may often not be as physically fit and may lack the youthfulness of a younger guy but the self assurance gained from years of living experience tend to weigh in a lot.
By the time a guy reaches fifties as I see it age is becoming more visible and most guys come to realise they are approaching towards the end of their careers. They subconsciously as a group will view the guys in their forties as holding sway in general. The fifties guys have often had enough and often don't really care about the forties guys taking the forefront while they go into a cooling period before retirement. After all what would be the point of them getting all competitive if they are looking to retire in the not so distant future.
I think apart from doing stuff quickly to get a lot of life experience when young to try and obtain self assurance at a younger age. Well the other thing is to work on physical fitness, if a guy feels he is strong then he will give off a natural protector vibe and he knows he can handle himself better.
The other thing is speak in a confident way, with self assurance. This is something not everyone can do, it tends to be natural or it doesn't work I think. Some people are just better talkers and will rely a confident speaking approach naturally.
Some guys I feel tend to do athletic stuff as their way of life. For the younger crowd their is more info about stuff out the on the net these days - how to eat better, exercises and health, and better food health labelling in supermarkets. Even still a lot won't look for or understand this information and won't chose the healthy option. I wish I had that information at hand when younger although I tend to think even if I did I likewise would not understand how it plays out.
Most people are the same as only a small percentage of men and women choose what may look to most people of us as the Uber healthy option naturally. If most people chose the inner healthy option we would have a lot of hot people knocking around.

Interesting Faux Pas, in the UK there are council estates and the majority of fat women tend to live on them, due mostly to very poor diet. They tend to have little idea of good nutrition. The guys tend not to be nearly as far in the main though of course many can be found. However a lot of these fat women still seem to get partners. I think it tends to be seen as the norm by guys around the council estate and so not a negative to them. I spoke to a normal looking guy of the council estate who had a fat wife a free years ago and he seemed to think nothing of it. Time though they shock me and I don't think I could possibly get hard over one, quite the opposite :-[

Trench WHY are you lying ?
Most Social housing stock was sold into the private sector LONG ago ..
There is no such thing as a Council Housing Estate, anymore
Your 'Britain' is forty years out of date
-
It was not a place where one might make any fat jokes.
Like..Hey this place must have it's own zip code....or ..Looks like the herd's in..or..boy scouts ask them for old dresses to use for camping tents...they walked into WalMart and the prices automatically lowered..they have to carry two drivers licenses...They took a picture on her birthday and it's still printing...
:popcorn:
-
People are bizzare . A friend from university was a tom cruize lookalike and dated a hot woman and got dumped by her. So be married the next fat girl that came along thinking she would be grateful. Instead she is the most horrible wife you could think of 20 years of sheer hell.

It's private social 'Housing Associations' that supply the housing to them now. Same deal really except the government give grants to housing associations and the benefits pay the rent. Many council estate areas sold off to housing associations. You're really splitting hairs Mobers. The council estate areas are now own by housing associations are still have much the same social problems.

Funny thing is, is I'm guessing that you could get an average looking girl rise to the top of desirability among High School guys just by following a healthy diet and keeping trim.
In the past 80s or whatever those average looking girls wouldn't get a look in. Now from what you say ML the situation has become so bad in the US that even the porkers are getting a look in.
From a UK dating forum I occasionally visit it seems apparent that many girls are oblivious to the trade of they are making between an unhealthy diet and getting interest from men. Plenty of 'I can't get a guy and I don't understand why' until she is asked about the usual, their weight, and get the usual response of some sort of alluring to the 'I'm overweight' category.
I was only a child in the eighties and a teen in the early nineties. In the UK it was fine for women's weight then, the usual class fattie but that it and to be expected. Now it's so shocking I wish I could go back to that era and live the good life.

LOL. Only a man in his forties would write this.
A man in his forties is not at his physical peak. That occurred 20 years earlier, and men in their twenties know this. He may be at the peak of his career, but maybe not. This is trending upward, as people are healthier longer and work more years.

Of course a man in his forties is not at his physical peak quite the opposite. I'm not so much talking about career peak either. More I am talking about a kind of physiological peak. A young guy may have physical peak but often won't have the self assurance life experiences bring, he won't know how situations play out ahead of them happening, he will lack the natural authority an older guy tends to be esteemed with, etc.
For example, a young guy won't often tell and older guy what to do or challenge him verbally. It's like the old saying of 'respect your elders'. Now society doesn't quite take it that rigidly these days but the general belief still persists even if subconscious. The older guy benefits from the knowledge he has acquired or is assumed to.
Hence why some females feel more secure with an older guy than a younger guy. Young guys have the youth and some have the physical form, some may come across as being able to protect her. Older guys though tend to more readily be accepted to be able to handle themselves not necessarily physically but in a multitude of situations where a younger guy may struggle.

Hmm. What's an adequate description of the above. Let me see... I got it: "Rubbish".
Confidence comes at various stages of life. Some are confident at the get-go. These are the guys you notice at school and university. They exude confidence and charisma.
Some gain confidence later in life. These guys can be quiet and unnoticeable, yet later become executives or entreprenuers or just general great guys.
A guy in his forties can be great, confident, intelligent, yadda yadda yadda. Or he can be average. Or an asshole. Or a looser. Just like a guy in his 30s, or 20s, or 50s, or 60s. Some cultures venerate elders and cut them slack for character flaws, but an ignoramous or misfit/malcontent in his 20s is not automatically anything else in his 40s or 60s.

A man in his forties is not at his physical peak. That occurred 20 years earlier, and men in their twenties know this.

It's private social 'Housing Associations' that supply the housing to them now. Same deal really except the government give grants to housing associations and the benefits pay the rent. Many council estate areas sold off to housing associations. You're really splitting hairs Mobers. The council estate areas are now own by housing associations are still have much the same social problems.
I'm not 'splitting hairs'
Govts have made 'affordable' housing to be intermixed with 3/4 bedroom homes ... Trench IS lying.. period ..
WHY do you feel the need to create scenarios ( excuses) for your failures ?
Yesterday my ex-wife showed me the her new home.. it is a 3 bed house - semi - but on one shared wall ..
She has bought it via a shared ownership scheme .. It is in a nice area, intermixed with two and for bed properties and 'FAT'
is not an adjective that describes her ;)

Mobe, you're trying to twist the matter to win the argument, just accept that you were wrong ;)
Affordable housing and shared ownership are separate housing programs from housing association accomodation. Housing association accomodation is rented from the housing association by the tenant - it is social housing much the same as council housing accept it's the housing association rather than the council that own the property. Many of the tenants will receive benefits from the government to pay the housing association rent.
Affordable housing and shared ownership (or part rent, part buy) are different. Both are designed for individual private buyers either as a basic cheaper than market rate house to buy or as a scheme to buy part of the house and pay rent as a private tenant on the other part. The cheaper than market rate affordable housing is often not that much cheaper than market rate it must be said.
Some mixed housing schemes or housing proposals may indeed be said to be affordable housing when they mean it will house housing association benefit tenants. This is a recent change to try alleviate the stigma attached to such tenants, to give the scheme a positive impression. Like all attempts to put lipstick on a pig, it will still end up as a pig. People will get to know 'Oh they mean it will house 'them' and not mean it will be cheaper than market rate housing, etc as it used to'. The general term affordable housing did always use to mean private housing for sale to individual private buyers.
If your ex has bought a shared ownership house then she is not in the 'housing association' category of people we are talking about here.

Said Trench, when busted for making stuff up, AGAIN..
Just imagine if you spend less time with your 'theories' and tried listening to the advice you had on here, how much more enjoyable your life might be.
You might not be able to afford to bring a FSU wife here ..
If those you foolishly support have your way .

I didn't know we were discussing the Olympics. I also do not know what a 20 yr old guy would know that a 40 year old doesn't....or a 60 year old guy wouldn't know 3 times as much ;D
I certainly do wish I knew what I know now when I was 20....or maybe not ::)

I wasn't referring to knowledge. Just physical condition, and on that count, a 20 something outperforms a 40 something 99% of the time.

Tons. If you are referring to yourself, then of course you would know better than your younger self. But there are a lot of 40 year olds out there that do not necessarily know more than a 20 year old.
Last year, a 40+ year old taxi driver in Kyiv said Poroshenko and Putin are great friends. That the two are freemasons, and that the Ukraine conflict was a freemason plot to kill off non-freemason Ukrainians and Russians.
Age does not automatically makes someone wiser or more knowledgeable.

BOdacious darling,
we’re NOT measuring physical stamina here, we’re measuring perceived sexual attractiveness of the opposite sex, men tend to peak at a later age compared to women, for different reasons not all related to aging... according to surveys of women, men peak at around 40
my daughters echo this sentiment, and that there’s a lack of “competency” among younger males, so they both prefer attention from older males who “know what they’re doing”...
average young guy in America is an “incel” with no experience or confidence, totally clueless
and is NO COMPETITION to an older guy who is the opposite
and that applies to Ukraine, UK, or USA...
guys with “skillz” are the ones who succeed
the rest will just have to make up stories about imaginary girlfriends
and become a member of the “Adopt-A-Dingo Foundation” to combat their loneliness... crikey!

Chances are a person who has lived 22+ years of their life as an adult has more knowledge than a person who has lived 2 years of their life as an adult.

I can certainly say I was getting much more women and better quality women at age 40 than I was at age 20.

Let's face it, times have changed.
Marriage used to be about love and commitment (in no particular order). Today it's more about lust and leverage in that order with mere hopes of love resulting.
I'm not saying either is wrong or right, just the way it is.
Trench, you are living in a fantasy. Instead of discussing your leverage, lust, commitment or whatever here for hours on end (note omission of love), why not just git out there and ask a woman for a date.. any woman, old, young, slim, overweight, any color of the rainbow, immigrant, non immigrant, citizen, local, out of town, overseas, whatever.. just a simple date.. don't even think about marriage, even not about sex then come back and tell us about it, or not. I get the feeling you are in dire need of a reality check.

if you ain't got no money

this is the simplest god damned truth a man should learn
so if ya wanna sip on some sweet nectar
then you better have some jing-a-ling in your pocket to help ya get it!!!
provided you got some pictures of dead presidents or of her majesty QE and if you're a decent lookin white guy
then it ain't hard at all to meet wimmin in Russia or Ukraine
there are plenty of young girls who like flirting with foreigners EVERYWHERE in Moscva...
if you're into social media you can chat on vk or viber and eventually meet someone in Moscva in person
and get plugged into their local physical network of friends
you can have a pretty major social life in Moscva this way starting from ZERO!
in good weather Moscva is a COMPLETELY different place starting from October when the cold starts coming in...
A LOT going on especially around Third Ring Road by the Moskva River and the ulitsy around Kuzminki District
bad-ass speed boat racing in the river, with the local cops, smoky and the bandit kinda stuff, what a blast!!!

I've seen 40 year olds kick the crap out of a guy in his 20's more than once. Never underestimate the abilities of someone regardless of age or size...this I do know.

My daughter never had "Daddy" issues, has always dated boys her age, and she is very mature for her age. Most of her friends are in relationships with young men their age.
The average age gap in a first marriage in most Western countries, and Russia and Ukraine, is less than 3 years, so all these women who are attracted to forty year old men aren't marrying them.
It's nice to "believe" 40 year old men are far better partners to women decades younger than the women's male contemporaries, but it's not true.

You are looking at a particular individual. I am referring to the group as a whole. Overall, 20 something men are at their physical peak. Anyone who follows most sports can see this.

Found this report recently about the problem of too many men in China and India and the social problems it creates in society:
http://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/long-reads/article/2142658/too-many-men-china-and-india-battle-consequences
I see the UK and the US, Canada, Australia, etc having the same problem but here it's a hidden problem. Here in theory there are enough looking at the stats, but in reality the amount of available women is probably similar to China and India.
Here it may be surmised as a rough estimate that about a this if the women are too fat and obese for most men to contemplate as a going concern. Another third of women are only able to feel love for their job and/or don't want children as the next rung in the career ladder is all that is in their sights.
That leaves roughly a third of women that roughly qualify for what most men want, a reasonable woman who they can have children with. Note this is working on the basis that gay & lesbians will roughly equal each other out. Same for those with bad mental health problems, bad character traits, etc, etc.
So what we are left with is a situation much like in China and India that there are a lot of guys chasing too few eligible women.
I'm not sure what the solution to this could be, should it become acceptable to have two or three men in a relationship with one woman? or a concerted action to reverse the obesity and corporate culture in the west, rationing of food perhaps? Thoughts?
TC-
You are much brighter than this to allow this type of useless information to exist in your mind. Take all the polls and all the statistics and just simply do away with it.
The existence or prevalence of fat, undesirable, ugly, disgusting available single women in EVERYONE's immediate surrounding is DIRECTLY proportionate to your OWN desirability. Period. If fat women are all that's available for you to 'date', then don't fault the fat women - fault yourself instead.
It merely means, it is all YOU'RE capable, or all that's available - for you to date. Even if the number is reversed and there's only 10 fat women out of a 100 available women, that 10 are the only ones that will exist in your world. Why? Because you lack the attitude and the confidence to make a play at the available 90 other gals.
Desirability can be a multitude of things, but the two things that illustrate a person's desirability is both attitude and confidence. Desirability can be anything. It can be wealth, athleticism, appearance, age, maturity, intelligence, humor (notice I'm not saying anything relative to your body structure. I've seen overweight men date some total babes), etc...
Again, if fat women are all that's available for you to date, look no further.
Don't mistake the silly notion that in economically-challenge regions like Ukraine allows someone like you to 'upgrade' their dating social level. What you're missing out of this box is the lone fact, in their eyes, simply because you're from a perceived wealthy nation makes you automatically 'desirable'. From there, they go down the line I listed above and tab how much more 'desirable traits' a suitor/candidate possess in comparison. It is NOT a coincidence that the failure rate of these marriages is abysmal. It's because these women immediately upon arrival can easily see the *potential more desirable men* that now surrounds them, compared to 'you'..
I ask, where exactly do YOU sit in this reality right now, and why? Maybe some serious & honest self-evaluation dude?

"My daughter never had "Daddy" issues, "
BOdacios darling,
I wouldn’t call it Daddy Issues, more like she prefers competency over incompetency...
if the 18 year olds were competent my daughter would be delighted, but today’s 18 year olds are timid, unsure, video game preferring creatures and BOYS only end up disappointing a WOMAN
so she wants a MAN!
my daughter is a tall 18 year old blond hair blue eyed Russian/American woman who can speak with perfect ease in either language
on a scale of 1-10, she's an 11+ and most local guys are too intimidated by her appearance and sophistication to make them be of any interest to her
she knows she's an alpha female, and she's only interested in alpha males, and there aren't ANY her own age locally...
in Moskva everyone was stunned when they heard her speak
as well as by her appearance (even by the tough local competition)
and I never saw so much neck snapping whenever she walked by
so now she thinks she can pretty much just snap her fingers and get whatever she wants there...
I was pretty much in shock when I saw this!
WTF, and she’s just 18!!!...
Russian men are in awe of her and consider her American
and American men are in awe of her and consider her Russian
I never met a more physically privigiled person in my life than her
but it’s almost like her life is just TOO easy though...
that there’s no challenge to overcome kinda thing...
and no matter how physically PERFECT you may be
OTHER people will always disappoint you
so it even rains in her world, amazingly enough...

Wrong, I chose ALL women regardless of age.
You chose someone that wasn't even an adult .. You can kid yourself, by all means

I don't feel too bad being married to a 40+ yr old Russian MILF (literally!)
I dated Ukrainian college freshmen/sophomores when I was in my early 40s, back then women that young weren't really a fit for me mentally
it was difficult having to deal with their monthly emotional roller coaster rides and "spoiled child" syndrome
my wife was in her mid 20s when I married her and she didn't have any of these problems
after I "broke her in", she became very docile and affectionate with me
and does everything possible to please me
PLUS she does ALL the cooking and cleaning and other household domestic chores
which saves me a bundle on cleaning AND catering services!!!!
it's a WIN, WIN situation...
the only downside to this relationship is being used as a human sex toy by an overly aggressive Russian woman...
that's just something I have to learn to live with I'm afraid...

In all honesty I played computer games a lot from about 10 to late twenties. From late twenties I began to tire of them and found a lot of them a lot samey. During my forties to date I still play them here and there normally when I'm stressed or need some time out. I know if other guys who still play computer games avidly in their forties and always have done. Those I know and myself hold down jobs ok, I'm not so sure playing computer games has been detrimental to my ability to get on work wise or socially. I think any short coming there was already present and playing computer games was a symptom rather than the cause of such. Indeed during my twenties when I was out of work here and there I think they just filled in time where I would have only been at a loose end.
I have heard some girls along the way have a real issue with guys that play computer games so I never used to raise it in the workplace or in social situations. I know nowadays it's more popular for some girls to play computer games and be open about it, but I think they are probably the exception than the rule and possibly a bit on the fringe type of girl.
I think the thing for me around 18 while I did the odd stint in the gym I was never really able to gather what was required to get really hot chicks. I took passing interest from some hot chicks but I think always fell a bit short. Back then I was probably seen by them like the guys you mention Krim, timid, unsure, etc. It was only in my early thirties to date that I became more sure of myself and my direction in life.
That said I think a lot has to do with opportunities and how people are socialized. When I was growing up job opportunities were difficult for various reasons. I guess computer gaming was a world in which I had more power to change what was around me than in real life. I think today's young guys are probably mostly in similar situations, waiting for stuff to begin for them.
In a way once a guy has scope to change the world around him to suit how he wants it, it's very much like a computer game.
In theory if I were to ever have a son I would tell him what he needs to do in terms of what most girls want in a guy and put him in the hot seat. I think of a guy has the ability to change the world (his world) around him he will naturally be more confident and show a lot of the characteristics most girls want to see in a guy. I think that most young guys in general are disenfranchised these days both as women become enfranchised and as resources and opportunities in society cone under strain. A lot of women don't understand I think that guys play computer games as there is nothing out there for them worth fighting for.
Way back in the day the reward hung out for guys was a woman and if you were a good catch a really hot woman. Now a lot of women are becoming fatties its becoming a self fullfilling prophecy. Men don't know what they are supposed to be doing, have the opportunity to do it nor the reward out there for show as to what they can have. If it's not fat women then they are sat there listening to some career woman rattle on about how she is aiming for the next rung up on the career ladder, 'exciting!' Lol.
I guess how I can see how things are difficult for your daughter, while we would all love to be in that position life can end up lacking meaning if things all come easy. However, in my opinion I think she wants to make the most of it and move fast ahead in life while she's young as things can get harder for a lady when she gets older as while many women can still be pretty age tends to take its toll on everyone, not to mention of course bad things out of the blue that can happen in life.

I couldn't in good conscience date a fat chick, I mean a really fat chick. I couldn't not be honest with myself nor her as I wouldn't be into her whether I tried or not, never mind trying to get a hard on. If I was in a relationship with a woman who was slim when we met but got fat, I would try as I could but I would also have to be honest with her and tell her it's not a turn on for me but rather a turn off that is beyond my control.
At work there is a girl who is a little overweight and I don't mind that. I think she is into me and are personalities seem almost the same, but she already has a guy she is living with so it looks like another second place for me there.
So I can stomach a bit overweight but a lot is just damn right disrespectful to a guy and a big turn off.
You're right in the 'how do I match up' stakes GQ. I think that in lot has to do with how much a girl is into a guy but also how closely aligned you are/how well you can get on with each other. The more closer on these the more forgiving she'll be, the more farther away the more a guys attributes will have to be up there.
In an ideal world we would get girls turn up that are into us and are closely aligned/get on well with. The way life is though in most cases girls turn up some variation of the mix of the two. It might be a lot of one and a little of the other or roughly even mix of both or everything around that.
Over the course of this year I've been working on my attributes. Progress has been made but more work needs to be done. At the moment I am adjusting my diet to a more healthy diet. I've been doing some gym but without adjusting my diet I can't see much more progress happening with my physical form.
I think I can continue to improve on stuff and put myself in a position where I'm not seen as too undesirable to women. I'm still working on learning Russian so long term if a woman doesn't know English that well it could help restrict guys over here cracking onto her ;) So long as it's a good enough match and I'm not seen as all that undesirable I think I could swing it :)

18 year olds are never really "men", nor are 18 year old girls "women". Physiologically, sure. Emotionally, definitely not. The brain continues to grow until about age 25. Nevertheless, I disagree that all 18 year old boys are timid, unsure, game preferring creatures. Our middle son at 18 had already gone through a string of girlfriends, and, at that age, was dating a girl who was a dead ringer for a Sports Illustrated cover model. She was also intelligent and an extremely nice person. He ended up breaking up with her, rather callously on his part, IMHO. He's had girlfriends since, but I don't really keep up with his romantic life. Contrary to Trench's "theory", neither my husband nor I ever told our children how, when, or who to date, not even when they were in their mid teens. I wasn't always thrilled with middle son's choices (did adore the "model" girlfriend, was disappointed when he dumped her), but they were his choices, not mine. He never talks about his girlfriends, not when dating, why they broke up, and were I to ask, he'd tell me it's his life.
she knows she's an alpha female, and she's only interested in alpha males, and there aren't ANY her own age locally...
I doubt there are no boys locally.
In any event, if this is true, your daughter is an outlier. Most girls of 18 think 40 is practically "dead".

I don't think Krim's daughter fits into the most girl category.
From what we've heard of Krim on here he is a very talented guy. Sounds like he has passed a lot of that talent onto his daughters. Add to that they sound like they are in or around the top 10 percent of girls in terms of looks - that's a big deal, a girl who has looks, youth, talent and most probably personality on her side is going to walk a lot of situations where most others would struggle. Add to that Krim's daughter is from a wealthy background and it's fair to say that having money behind you from the word go can give many people a leg up. On top of that there are also contacts, etc.
So if we have a girl scoring 8-10 across the board in all the categories, looks, wealth, intelligence, talent, personality, charisma, etc then many a guy is going to look very disappointing to her. Some guys in their 40's may at least be talking of the same sort of stuff she is capable of at 18 that most other 18 year olds aren't. In general though most 18 year old guys aren't thinking big at that age and if they are they could well be freaks, deluded or jokers.
When you think about it a guy can score highly in one category but fall down in another and go from being seen as a possible prospect to not all that great and not what she's looking for. So he could be a 8-10 in looks and personality but be as dumb as a bag of hammers, or have a drink or drugs problem, or a deep mental health problem, or is gay, etc, etc. The nearer a person gets to perfection the harder it probably is to find likewise, not that other people in different situations are having it easy of course.

humans all can be measured on a “bell curve”
my oldest daughter is at the far right end at the very tip
her couture straight out of Vogue with fashionable dresses made by the leading designers in Moscva, with every blond curl in her hair meticulously prepared...
but lives in a jeans and t-shirt world in the USA where she studies biochemistry at an ivy league school in Houston...
to escape the humdrum
she travels to Moscva at least 3 times per year and Crimea usually once each summer....
she gets a tsunami of attention wherever she goes in Russia!
funny how much attention a tall blond with a silky smooth Russian voice can get there
and the fact she’s American, means there’s two film studios in Moscva interested in her
for minor movie roles as an evil English/Russian speaking villainess...
she has a HUGE social circle in Moscva
and she’s been on TV there twice and has a LOT of fans
in Moscva I’ve seen her being “hit-on” by soldiers, police, professional sports figures, etc
vrs teenage boys who play video games all day in the USA...
BIG CONTRAST!!
my youngest daughter is the polar opposite of her older sister
and is VERY shy
she is also bi-lingual like her older sister, but doesn’t think very highly of Russia...
she has a geeky boyfriend her own age
a romantic evening for her is bowling and pizza while she and her boyfriend talk about computers...
awwwwwww.....

Trench,
From what you post, it is clear that you have no idea about how to behave in the company of ladies. ( hot or otherwise)
It was suggested you take up a sport and increase social contact to help with that.
Yet, here you are STILL proving you are clueless.
There is no shortage of available women, in the FSU or UK..
There are plenty of reasons they are not interested in you...until you get rid of you misogynist tendencies.

oh really?
Is Rice Ivy League?
Quote
The eight Ivy League schools are some of the most selective colleges in the United States, and they also rank among the country's top private universities. Each one of these universities has top-ranked academics and an award-winning faculty. The members of the Ivy League can also boast of beautiful and historic campuses.
Ivy League Schools
The eight members are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton University, and Yale University. Ivy League has connotations of academic excellence, selectivity in admissions, and social elitism.

He's just very verbose about it.

for the ignorant among you (and they are LEGION on this board!)
Rice University — the Harvard of the South — is one of the hardest colleges to get into in America. ... It is harder to get into Rice than it is to Ivy League power Cornell,
Niche’s "2016 Best Colleges" puts Rice in the #5 spot
the only other Universities with a higher rating than Rice were No. 1 Stanford, No. 2 MIT, No. 3 Yale and No. 4 Harvard
src: http://www.papercitymag.com/culture/step-aside-princeton-houston-school-rice-zooms-by-ivy-league-powers-for-top-5-colleges-in-america-rankings/
costs about the same as Harvard as well, tuition is $ 48,330 per yr, add about 50% above this to get the actual yearly cost...
I hope you pridorki in the Trump voting underclass understand now
that the reality stated above is bigger than the SIMPLISTIC definitions that YOU employ...
clearly you are all card carrying members of the league of village idiots who can be relied upon to say things that are sometimes silly and amusing but frankly nearly always show a profound ignorance
'spossiba bolshoi to you all for providing me with my morning laugh however...
what a buncha pridorki!
GOZPEDY!!!
I just find it HILARIOUS that your feeble attempt to attack me with an "idiot bomb" blows up in your own hands
go and have a brief wiley coyote look now just before you plummet 1,000 feet to the earth below and go 'splat'
I'll say a little eulogy for ya'
here lies... yet another RWD retard
hoisted by his own petard
Amen!
BTW, last month I did a strip club "crawl" through Moscow starting with Rasputin's with the son of a MAJOR oligarch as his guest and as part of his entourage
which includes his father's body guard and "watchdog"...
I saw UP CLOSE over 100 BEAUTIFUL completely nude Russian women, many of them from less than 3 feet away...
a few of them were the hottest looking women I have EVER seen in my life!!!
in Moscow, the rules are DIFFERENT than in the USA strip clubs,
in Moscow you ARE allowed to touch them ANYWHERE ANYTIME...
and the "acts" are WAY more hard-core than in the USA
"spreading" being a popular meme
what a night...
so I SNEER in your general direction...

This is what I LOVE about FSU society, people can actually be real and enjoy themselves! None of the uptight BS you get in Western cultures. They let themselves be free and casual :) It's like a breath of fresh air. To go to the FSU and do so much more than you can in the west unhindered, it gives a lot more scope for thought and options of what you can do.

This is true in general, but it was not what I was actually refering too.
Exceptions can occasionally be found but in such cases caution is needed as they may be dodgy in some way.

Wow, I would love to be like your eldest daughter Krim and have the world at my feet :)
It's the sort of life I could only dream for and I would think many other people.
I'm guessing your youngest daughter gets her computer interest from you Krim ;) Life is still easier as a quiet girl than a quiet guy but I still think being able to naturally have a rocking social life is a wonderful thing to have.
One thing that has interested my mind of recent is whether a person can change who they are somewhat by focusing on an area of their life they have to date never really bothered much with. So like if a person who is usually pretty studious makes a conscious effort to go to the gym & take on a healthy diet whereas before they didn't do much or any of it. Is it possible for them to become athletic and admired? where before they were geeky and studious looking. Similarly for a guy that spends a lot of time in bars in the evening where previously he didn't tend to bother with them a lot? Thoughts?

More inane "advice" from Krimster and his stupid bragging-geez he even "knows" someone in Moscow ! :rolleyes:

what's so weird about knowing someone in Moscva?
I'll be living there part time soon...
I've also lived in Kyiv and Sevastopol for 3 yr (here's a pic of my old apartment that I fixed up myself there)
it's not weird at all living or knowing a lot of people there, my wife even has 3 family members who live there
I have a commercial web site in Russia that has netted me thousands of VK contacts ALL OVER Russia
they all have a VERY specific interest that I am a supplier for
and they're almost ALL women
about 25% are HOT....
and they all have SOME amount of interest in me personally...
it would be trivial for me to turn that into a "pooty-tang" mine
and have an unlimited supply
but...
I am quite happy with my current appointment....
and instead just use it to make money $$$$
all I see is dollar signs
gonna make it rain down here

Wow. Talk about dementia. The only people who've even heard of Rice are in Texas. It is not an Ivy League School. It does not have a lower take ratio than Cornell. And the quality of students who apply for Ivy league schools is much higher than those who apply for Rice. Sorry to burst your bubble. I'm sure in your opinion it is better than an Ivy League School. But because you have that opinion does not make it so. I'm sure your daughter will get a good education and you can go back to screwing 21 year old women whom you meet in Russia at strip clubs, cheating on your wife.
-
“The only people who've even heard of Rice are in Texas.”
only an ignorant person would make such a claim about other ignorant people...
National University Rankings puts Cornell and Rice at the EXACT same level...
none of us tuition paying parents consider it wrong to use Rice in this context
and none of us parents care if morons who don’t even have kids approve of our usage or not
as far as my sex life goes, I NEVER cheat on my wife...
it’s unnecessary for me to...
because I have limited freedoms and I’ve learned to live within those limits
and I’m quite happy with them and so to is my wife
you haven't earned the right to judge me without being judged yourself...
you have been weighed and found wanting...
-
I have heard of Rice University forever. I knew it rated as one of the top schools in the south, but knew no specific statistics. Below are some.
Be aware that all such rankings are very subjective and depend heavily on what criteria is used and who makes the judgements. Also, there is a huge 'carryover' effect. That is to say, it takes many, many years to go up or down significantly in rankings because people doing the ranking use past reputations as a beginning point.

One metric. Big deal. No matter how many times you may say so, Rice is NOT an Ivy League School. One metric about my alma mater is that it creates more CEOs in the country than any other university. It has a great engineering program. But that does not make the school better than CalTech or MIT. And I would not be so demented as to say so. If someone were to ask me what the best school in the South is, I would probably say Duke. Not because of the Basketball program, but because it has a tremendous medical school. And my nephews went to UNC. So that is a tough pill to swallow for me.
The top rated schools in our country - for prestige and education probably are Stanford and the Ivies. For engineering and scientific programs, MIT (you're welcome Pitbull) and CalTech. Of the public schools, I'd probably choose Michigan. And that is also a tough pill to swallow as I went to Wisconsin.
As I said in my previous post, you don't see kids all over the country screaming because they didn't get into Rice. Most of them have never heard of it. So next time you get braggadocious about which school your daughter goes to, don't overshoot your mark. It only makes you look the fool as you are in so many of your other posts. Especially when you are using your bragging to try and beat down another poster.

First, I don't see any harm in referring to a school as 'Ivy League like' and there are a few of them.
Second, I would agree with most of what Jon posted above.
In my view, there are several public and private schools that are just as good as most Ivy schools.
Full disclosure: I have degrees from two of the schools noted below.
Top Public:
University of California Los Angeles
University of California Berkeley
University of Michigan
University of Texas
University of Virginia
Top Private:
MIT
CalTech
Stanford
Carnegie Mellon
University of Chicago
Duke
Vanderbilt
Rice
Univ of Southern California
Northwestern
Johns Hopkins
Another very important factor for individual students is the majors available.
Does no good to select a top name school if they are not strong in the desired major . . . or don't even have that major.
Of course a counter argument (that I somewhat agree with) is that a person should get a good general education at undergrad level, and then focus on major for grad degrees.
In fact, I will recommend to my grandchildren that in undergrad they focus on:
Math, Statistics, English, Speech, Argumentation, Logic, Computers, Music Appreciation, Art Appreciation, Golf or Tennis (skip all team sports).
Top scores in the above will get them into top Law schools.
If they are leaning toward business then throw in a couple of accounting courses and a couple of economics but wait for MBA to go heavily into business courses. High scores in Math, Stat and Computers will get them into top MBA programs.
If leaning toward medicine, then throw in some biology and chemistry.
If leaning toward engineering . . . well then there isn't much choice other than a straight undergrad Engineering program.
One last viewpoint; and this is what I have advised to dozens of International students that I have talked to in their home countries.
You can't go wrong by choosing ANY Big Ten school.
This cannot (the ANY) be said of any other 'conference.'

Wow. Talk about dementia.
The word should be DEMENTED.

BUT -- he did not say that and subsequently reinforced his assertion. THAT IS THE POINT -he told a deliberate blatant lie.
He did it -- and uses other semi facts in an attempt to create credibility - something lacking generally in many of his posts and "advice" !
None of that has ANYTHING to do about Rice or it's status-- no one is arguing it is not a good school with a great reputation.Like another frequent liar on the forum -dragging in some believable info that was never in question is used to divert attention from the fundamental lie being promoted.
Krim has chosen to create a lie about me -- and keep trotting it out across numerous threads when he knows full well it is untrue -- and all from a persistent liar another thread gets diverted to be about him- again ! :wallbash:

I see poor 'ol JayH and Jone are getting a drubbing from Krimster .
The term Creep was used ( more appropriately ) to describe JayH's Tag partner...but JayH is never the most observant.
What is this latest spat about?,
Is it JayH serial fails on the Ukraine dating scene or him and Jone being 'offended' by Krimsters life style and ability to afford ensuring his lass a good education?
My mistake...the thread is about a 'perceived' lack of available women
-

Hardly a surprise you place no importance on the truth- your propensity to lie is very clear to all. As for your other comments-- again pretty clear that it all sailed well over your head :deadhorse:

Oh really-- given you have stabbed repeatedly on the same topic-- and again here --put your money where your mouth is --bet me on who is being truthful here --or shut up.
Krimster is so gutless to keep repeating a constructed lie and refuse to bet me -- so let see how correct you are -bet me $5000 .
I will forward $500 to Maxx for what you stiffed him on and not paying him as agreed .

Good morning, JayH !
I'm always asking you this .. but WHAT 'lies'... ?
Oh really-- given you have stabbed repeatedly on the same topic-- and again here --put your money where your mouth is --bet me on who is being truthful here --or shut up.
I expect I might when you can stop making stuff up .. OK?

Crikey, jayjay's condition is worse than I thought, he's already fantasizing about dividing up his scam windfall!!!
don't forget to include $40 for dingo treats!!!
and the flea market will have some nice digi-roos for under $200...
crikey! $5000!!! you could even afford some shrimp for the barbie by the billowong cobber...
"First, I don't see any harm in referring to a school as 'Ivy League like' and there are a few of them."
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS SAYING!!!! and the statement is 100% true!
JayJay's argument is I left out the word "like"...
and how AWFUL it is that I did that!!!
it's amusing how single lonely guys like JayJay so easily develop fixations
to fill their internal emptiness....
the highlight of jayjay's day:
feeding a cookie to an old dingo and playing the digi-roo while scheming up ways to get people to send him money in the form of "scam bets"....
all of this is the result of "JayH serial fails on the Ukraine dating scene"
but don't worry "JayH and the Real Girl" will be a box office comedy smash - the first summer comedy romance without any actual romance!!!
and that's NO LIE!!!
"This thread is about finding available ladies ... "
SPOT ON!!
and it you're a smart guy the women are EASY to find and meet and if you're a REALLY SMART guy, the women will all come to YOU!!!!
but, if you're a "lesser man" then you end up being sad and alone...
I wish there was a way I could just send jayjay a few bucks so he could at least go out and buy himself a decent meal.. crikey!!!!

Funnily enough I was down my local DIY store just now and there was a big Russian guy who walked down the Isle. Now that is highly unusual in these parts as although there are small numbers of Russians in the UK they are not numerous when set against the UK population as a whole (due to visa issues etc). In Wales though they seem even more of a unique occurrence.
Anyway, this guy was approaching middle age, perhaps not a lot older than me and when I say he was big I mean he was quite a burly build, muscled. Now you can get bigger and more muscle but in general he was well above average. He was with some woman his wife I guess around his age, Russian too I think.
The point is looking at him I'm surprised that FSW even bother with a lot of us westerners. Sure not all Russian men are burly built but I've been out there and a considerable number are. What FSW must think of a lot of us when we come to visit. Just a handy reminder I found for me to keep seeking to lift my game I think and I think useful for other western men to note as well.

First, I don't see any harm in referring to a school as 'Ivy League like' and there are a few of them.
Let me join in on the off topic discussion/food fight.
There is also the sports conference Ivy League and the teams they compete
against going back to the horses, buggies, bugles and swords.
Navy way back in the Olden days was in the same sports league as Harvard
and Yale. Nobody knowledgeable would dismiss the academic rigor at
Annapolis or West Point and they were technically in the Ivy League since
that's what the league was called.
Navy is in a different conference now, but it wouldn't be incorrect to call
them Ivy League because of their history.
Ok, go on back to the food fight

when you’re a member of a Russian “organizatze"
you HAVE to be a team player and support all the other team members
especially the TOP ones!!!
instinctively Russians create a team building environment within the clan
focused around some kind of male dominated activity
if you’re lucky your krisha will have a penchant for parties at the Four Seasons with your table over flowing with $2,000 bottle massandra cognac in the original antique bottle (and you can keep an empty bottle as a souvineer!) and you eat sushi and sashimi from naked strip club models...
moy krisha bratnoy do speed boat racing on the Moskva river with 300 HP plus engines
part of the river is pretty broad, and this is the best passing point if you have a big tourist boat to get past, if you get too close to a tourist boat the police will come after you and it’s like 100,000 ruble fine for first offense plus you’d just look like a poseur...
so stay away from the tourist boats!!!!
waiting time is like forever on trying to get a slip in the marina, so it’s a long way off before I can get my own power boat...
BUT I CAN CREW!!!
I chose my daughter’s boyfriend’s boat and became his co-pilot...
we ravaged the boat of another oligarch’s son, and later they challenged us to a fist fight in the marina parking lot...
big mistake, BF’s body guard takes down two of the three immediately, I punch #3 solidly in the face and then BF wacks him hard, and he wears a bunch of heavy platinum rings, by the time the fight was over I ended up with a chipped tooth and my wife and orthodontist are pissed at me...
but it’s worth the pure adrenaline of pushing a hard 40 knots on the Moskva river against half a dozen other boats and then later meeting up at some party going on in the forest.....
I ALWAYS impress Russians when I show up at a late night forest bonfire party
because I do something simple, that no other Russian does...
I bring a keg of iced Baltica on tap and cups....
Russians have this "why didn't I think of that look"...
-
The vast majority don't. Even my wife didn't. Neither did other spouses here at RWD
I found my wife on Russian social media. She had never considered
dating a Westerner until I asked her out for tea.
