According to a Russian woman....

[noelscot]

there are three types of Russian men: Lazy, married, and good, which are like UFOs (no-one ever sees them).


Masha told me men who ask her out in Russia ask how much she makes per month!  Because they want to sponge off her.


My personal view is that these statements are some truth and some exaggeration, but it may shed light on why some women are looking abroad for men. 


This is nothing new, but I figured I would share the anecdote.
