I was under the impression that Russian women did not like facial hair and yet I see dozens of guys with full beards or mustaches. What gives?

Beardies are always in a minority, there seem to be less in Russia than in, for example, Sweden, or the UK. Here, the only people I know with beards are Estonian and they are not common, but are almost a mark distinguishing Estonians from Russians.

IMHO, most women do not like beards. Some women will put up with them for the man they love, some, a few, genuinely do like them. Experience suggests that whilst some women enjoy the feel of facial hair, some of the time, they do not want it all of the time, so on balance, it is preferred to be absent.

I have asked numerous girlfriends that I have spent a week or more with, or known for a long time, this question.

100% of these FSU girls did not like facial hair.  So if you are "looking," I'd say grab the razor:)

p.s. You also should shave under your arms...

Elena calls me a hedgehog when I don't shave for a couple of days and it tickles her neck.

shoulder, ear and nose hair are not very good either.

Actually, nose hair serves a purpose of filtering out bad things in the air but it is not pleasant to look at. Ear hair maybe does the same but why do only older guys have it? Shoulder hair, who needs it?

Other than those boys who live in the R O Church I did not see too many beards when I was last in Moscow. The other thing I did not see much of is people wearing eye glasses. Do all Russians have 20 20 vision, or do they not wear glasses? Regarding hair....ahhhh...how do I put it? Regarding RW and the groomage of the carpet area. What is the fad? Many AW have gone bald in that area.

Usually carefully groomed down there, which means they are used to "showing it off."   Not necessarly a good thing to find out:shock:

I have never had beard or mustache.

However, I have had numerous FSU gals tell me that I didn't need to shave, when I suggested that I was going into bathroom to do just that.

When I asked why, they reply something like:  Its good to feel a little manliness (whisker) when we are kissing.

This does not mean they like beards or mustaches, but interesting that they like to feel they are not kissing another woman or a baby.

Michael, you say you should also shave under your arms.  You are referring to guys right?  I have never heard of this being desired by any woman.

And your other comment that they shave 'down there.'  Well that is a big thing with FSU women.  They really like to play around with the razor to create different styles, designs, etc. and even go all the way to leave nothing.  Doesn't mean they are going to be showing it off to anybody.  They do it for themselves.  Apparently the gals discuss this quite a bit with other gals, as to what is latest style.

A gal I am going to spend time with in a few days had it all removed when I was first with her in May.  A week later it was pretty prickly, so I asked her to give it another complete shave which she did.  But a couple of months ago I asked her to let it all grow back so I could compare and see what I liked best.  So she has done that.

I'm sure all of you have heard your Ukr./Rus wife say, "a man who shaves in the morning loves his job, but a man who shaves at night loves his wife". It's become a habit for me to plug the razor in after I brush my teeth before bed.;)

Hmm....I can think of 3 FSU girls who thought it gross I had hair under my arms.  So now, before I leave, I shave my armpits.

I figured it was like us Americans not liking girls who do not shave their legs..

Maybe I just had strange girls?  Dunno...

And yes, FSU girls tend not to have tatoos, but the certainly have cool trims "down under" :P

My actual girlfriend ( and previous wife ) love my beard... not a beard from some day who are to hard and strong but a soft stimulating one...

But my actual friend wish remove herself all my hair around my "little head" :shock:...

RW like people shaved but marry people with beard, they seem more serious that the other...

Clyde... when RW say that they don't like facial hair, they don't think about the top of head... be more calm next time your use the razor :D:D:D Sorry guy, i have not resist about it... but for confort you, you know certainly what women say about the quality in bedroom from bald men ;) ... if you have big foot or nose, your lady is certainly lucky :P

Ya know - if the gal you are seeing is open-minded - she might be surprised (happily ??) at a little gift you could bring along :?

Glad you liked the link - just don't visit those "See-Through" or "Sheer" links. Really . . . don't do it. No kidding. . .

I suppose the other question is, does the carpet match the drapes? Usually not so with AW. I am not sure with RW. I guess women are women no matter where they are from
