That is because he is afraid they will mess up his hair and he needs to be changed as he could never show himself on the field after that... :P

1) ask this woman what does she mean,
2) my guess would be that it's a man who does not yell at her, does not make a drama at h ome, is something opposite to being outrageous, etc.

Positive, not neurotic, without fast emotional reactions, handling stress well and with a smile. No shouting or screaming, no raising voice at anybody or anything, no rage, definitely no aggression - verbal or physical.
 
Let me give you several examples what do i mean when I say "a calm man":
1) we are driving in a car with my husband. On a crossroad another car did not stop at the stop sign and nearly collided with us. My husband shakes his head in disbelief and raises his hands as if asking "dude, what are you doing?" The male driver in the other car starts cursing, hitting the steering wheel, and waves his hands frantically and in rage, while his face gets red and the face of his wife (who is in the passenger seat) gets pale and terrified. Apparently, my husband is calm man. Apparently the other guy is not a calm man.
2) we are at home, having dinner with red wine. Suddenly someone knocks off the wine glass onto the carpet- let's say our cat does it. Or me. Or my husband. We look together with my husband at the wine stain growing on the carpet, then look at each other, laugh, and go to the kitchen together to get paper towels. It is kind of funny when the cat looks scared of what he did, and funny how typical this is. Of course, the carpet needs cleaning now, but the stain or even a new carpet isn't worth freaking out about it and being in bad mood and stressed.
3) cat jumps into the kitchen cabinet, knocks off the pile of plates, they fall - some on the kitchen counter, some from the kitchen counter fall again on the floor, some break. Lots of noise, cat is terrified. So we comfort the cat, then husband goes to get a vacuum cleaner, I start collecting pieces of broken plates. Husband enters the kitchen with a vacuum cleaner, looks at the volume of the disaster, and says with a laugh "I guess cats have freed some space and you can start buying new plates" (I love buying fine china, and my obsession with it is a common topic for jokes in our family)


I think both my husband and I are very calm people, our home and our life are always very peaceful and happy.

It means English isn't her native language (obviously). But hopefully soon she'll get better, and thus will be better at (describing) explaining what she really means.

For now, what mies said...

Just ask her if she's a calm Russian woman, as that is far more rare and elusive


 :D

There are shortcuts to happiness and dancing is one of them.

I do resent the fact that most people never question or think for themselves. I don't want to be normal. I just want to find some other people that are odd in the same ways that I am. OP.

Without excessive emotions ( positive or negative). In all probability, she isn't looking for a high achiever either ( in this case, there must be reasons for that).
In general, and I believe it's no secret that Russians demonstrate emotions ( both positive and negative) more than Anglo-Saxons, Germans, and other West European ethnicities. This comparison doesn't refer to Americans who descend from other ethnicities ( Italian, Latin American, etc . there are quite a few of them on this forum).
On Russian ladies' forums some ladies married to them mention that their spouses are more emotional than a lady would wish, in other words "not calm".
Compatibility matters too. An overly emotional Russian lady may seem calm and quiet in comparison with a Latino lady. One may say the same is true with males.
