Why not Colombian women instead? Why Russian?
« on: January 01, 2009, 01:34:57 AM »
Why so much focus on Russian women when there are so many beautiful women in Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil??? Why do you prefer a Russian woman instead?

Because Latin American women are genetically predisposed to weight gain as they age?

Because many of them are Roman Catholic and that means no artificial birth control?

Because although Russian women can be just as unstable, Latin American women are more often than not batshiat crazy?

Ever wonder WHY they invented waxing? (Hint: As time goes by, she will need to buy more razor blades than you do!)

Happy New Year!

I agree with HiTech.  They are not that attractive as far as I am concerned. Neither am I particularly attracted to Asian women. 

I wonder if on the South American expat bulletin boards they ask questions like, "Why not Russian women instead of Argentinians?"

Russian/FSU women because this is a "specialty" site (thank god). If you went to one of the other "dating megasites"......and you were looking for, engaged or married to a woman from the FSU......you would expend a tremendous amout of energy trying to find others with similar interests. If you are looking to the FSU.......you just found most of us.....here......at RWD  :)


Capt B


P.S. If you are just looking for a woman from anywhere (any city, state, country)....then one of the megasites might work for you. If that person happens to come from a country foreign to yours......then you can seek out a "country/culture" specific site which will help you greatly with all the logistical problems unique in dealing with that country (travel, lodging, laws, immigration, customs, language etc.)
If the woman you found happens to be from the FSU.......you probably just found the best place to be of help. Hopfully this site will always remain "FSU" specific. As we told Spencer (former owner of the RWG site).....if you start to add Asian, Latino (or any other non-FSU country).....you will begin to lose your "core" ........the folks who made the site possible in the first place.

Phil, I see your point but I have seen some heavywight Russian and Ukrainian women too. I think we all gain weight by age, both men and women so perhaps not so much based on nationality alone perhaps. That said, compared to the USA, most people in Russia and Ukraine are in good shape from a weight perspective. SB

Dale, I understand your point of view. I just wanted to raise the question and it sounds like you considered all the options before you discovered the amazing women in Eastern Europe. The problem is just to make a decision since there are just too many of them. SB

Silverbullet, let me make one comment. I dated a woman from Argentina, and after breaking up just continued searching.
I dated a woman from Kiev and after breaking up concentrated on the FSU, then found my wife in Russia.

While I never restricted my search to specific countries or parts of the world, after the first visit the FSU became clearly the main target.
No it is not a dog. Its really how I look.  ;)

I live in Miami and know MANY South American women.

In my opinion South American/Hispanic women's behaviors border on what I call EMOTIONAL INSTABILITY.

They wear their emotions on their shirt sleeves and almost anything sets them off.

They have VERY high strung personalities.

They are COMPLETELY different from Russian Women.

Generalisations, generalistions ::). Don't forget that in South America (particularly Venezuela, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile) that are a lot of women of German or suchlike descent.

Many years ago I spent a month in Caracas, and got myself a blonde, blue-eyed, lissom local G/F whose name was Astrid, born a llanera in a cattle-raising farm of the interior ;).

Mention of South America in an FSU Forum just reminded me of a parallel apropos male/female demographic unbalances, real or imagined.

Many years ago a friend of mine was dumped by his fiancé, who had finally got tired of his constant dalliances :(. This unexpected event was a total shock for him and his ego, and he went into depression. He obtained a 6-month leave of absence from IBM Italy and used it to go visiting his uncle, who had settled in Paraguay after going there to work on a dam project. On his return, he had recovered completely from his depression ;), and was starry-eyed when recollecting his Paraguayan times ;D.

The War of the Triple Alliance, also known as the Paraguayan War, and the Great War in Paraguay itself, was fought from 1864 to 1870, and caused more deaths than any other South American war. It is known as the bloodiest war in Latin American history. It was fought between Paraguay and the allied countries of Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay.

The quantity of eligible, pretty, affluent Paraguayas who wanted to console this love-crushed European was apparently endless, at least in his tales 8).

I can tell you all some positives and negatives about Mexicanas.. the same dynamics will apply to most central American and South American women.

Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy, Jealousy...

I am an artist.. I see everyone and everything.. they only saw me "seeing" other girls...

Yes.. they are "hot blooded" and will wear their emotions on the sleeve.  If that is a positive or negative will depend on the guy.

Girls from the common classes of people will in general not only not be greedy, but exceptionally non materialistic.  On the other hand.. girls from the upper classes.. who are mroe likely to have a level of education most of us in this forum would be attracted to, will in general be VERY materialistic as they are accustomed to a very pampered life with servants (slaves) and vacations in new York, Paris, Miami, Houston.. In Mexico the rich will know nothing about the provinces but will know what the latest and greatest in New York is...

The beauty and weight questions are not going to be accurately shown on any agency sites that deal with women who are specifically looking to marry foreign men.  Even though my opinions about FSU marriage agencies are well known.. I can understand why they could be usefull to some men.. on the other hand.. anyone using an agency for Latin America is really setting themselves up for a mess.  There is just no need for it.  Amigos.com is legit if you need a pay service.. so is latincupid.. and there are a few latin social networking sites.  If you dig a little there are some amazing beauties of all shades...

for me the main reason I have been looking in the FSU is the rejection of the jealousy issues associated with Latinas and what I have hoped would be a stronger cultural affiliation because of my personal background.

Interesting question!  And, I find myself uniquely able to comment.  I have lived in Colombia for many months.  I will spend at least 3 - 4 months in 2009.  Lots of adventure.  Lots of fun.  AND TONS OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN. 

Before any insane comments about Colombian women being more, or less attractive - STOP the nonsense.  This place is famous for beautiful women.  MOST are voluptuous, full figured.  I strongly prefer petite women. There are far fewer of those here.  But, such women get virtually no attention - no matter how attractive.  Big Silicon Breasts Rule The Day.  Silicon buttocks too.

The truth is that almost any AM can enjoy a huge increase in his eligibility in Colombia.  And I do not see many Americanos in Cali - THANK GOD!  I assume some would be better served in Colombia than in Russia or Ukraine; others not.

Colombia is NOT a place to come to alone.  It is both more safe and more dangerous than most Americans presume.  You have to have a guide.  PM me, I could help make some introductions to those that are interested.

I have dated toooooooooo many pretty girls in Colombia.  I could NEVER be content with my natural dating pool in the USA. There is not a great amount of intelligence here ... to be brutally honest.  I miss that.  Which brings me back to RWD for a visit.

I disagree, I have lived with both and I find a range of similarities quite remarkable. To the OP, if Columbian Women float your boat, why not?

I have spent a lot of time in central and south america these last ten years.  And I think the women there are beautiful!

I took a russian gf there on several trips-- costal rica, brazil, ecuador, and she thought the women there were hot!

So, in terms of this thread and the question it states, why not?  I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

It's been a while since I have posted but I have a lot of knowledge on the subject with having 4, 3 week trips to Brazil last year.

The women there are just as beautiful as in FSU IMO. But you need to know where to go. Southern Brazil from the state of Santa Katarina and Rio Grande do Sul have a large German and Italian influence. I even met a girl there with a Brazilian mother and Ukrainian father. But the women there are much different. They do not want to leave Brazil. I have never seen a group of more patriotic people in my life. They are extremely passionate.

But in my opinion for people to place a label on personalities is very wrong. There are plenty of level headed women down in South America, but you don't find those women on websites. You find them on the beach, in the clubs. There are no international marriage agencies in Brazil that I know of. But if you can speak their language, it is very easy to meet people. I have made some friendships that have lasted a long time now since I started vacationing there.

But like another poster said, some guys like girls from FSU some like Latin, Brazilian, or Asian...

One last comment though, you have never been to a beach until you have been to Copacabana, Ipanema, Mole, Joaquina. There are some very nice 40+ years old that will make your head spin wearing the Brazilian Bikinis.

And Castelinho, Arpoador and Barra da Tijuca. I was in Rio a LONG time ago, so things may well have changed. I didn't notice any stunning 40+ years old then, possibly because I was 33 at the time and looking elsewhere ;).

What I did notice was their killing combination of almost baby-like faces on women's bodies (sexual development starts earlier in warm climates, and the tanga caters for Brazilian men's anatomical preferences ;)) and an easier approachability by foreigners (striking up a conversation with a bunch of lovely Cariocas on the beach was never a problem, not necessarily implying getting anywhere further, however).

Possibly because the Portuguese were much less stuck up as colonialists than the Spaniards, more like we were in Somalia, Eritrea and Ethiopia 8) ;D.

You guys are so funny. All women have their moments of "insanity" They probably say the same about us men.  While some South American women can be beautiful, looks will fade more quickly and there are fewer quality women to choose from. They are more apt to be drama queens and lack the charm and intelligence of a FSU woman. Most women are high maintenance. Sure, some wear their emotions on their sleeves. Russian women tend to hide them. Their dignity is important to them. They take better care of themselves in general and want to always look their best. They will spend their last bit of money to look their best.  FSU women in general have Russian charm like no other. I am lucky to find a woman who has everything all in one package and is even tempered. Case in point, the photo to the left. Russian women look 15- 20 years younger then American women I have been with. Most guess Galina's age at mid thirties max and are shocked to find she is just 4 years younger than me. After seeing her birth certificate and passport I still wonder if it's true. I am spoiled for sure. People ask me all the time why I chose a Russian woman from so far away when there are so many to choose from here. All I can answer is, "there ain't no woman like the one I've got"  Isn't this an old R&B song?

Just sayin....
The ones that come to America are often not the best people from their native countries. The endless illegals from Mexico can often give Americans the wrong impression. The ones that sneak over the border are the poor and the uneducated. Go to Mexico and you will see the difference, the educated and successful ones there are different in many ways, not only richer. There are too many generalizations about Latin- and South-America. There are big differences between the countries, Argentina for instance is the Paris of the Americas. They look like Italians or Spaniards (not Mexicans) there, while in Brazil you have all colors under the rainbow.

The same can be said for CIS countries too, back to what the site is about. Ladies from Moldova are different than Russians. Belarussians are different than Ukrainians. Even within Russia there are vast differences with so many ethnic groups. Even Asians in Russia. I guess most think of Slavic women when they hear Russian women, but they are not all Slavs.

Yeah, been there seen that. BUT despite the looks in "shameless" tiny bikinis are they wife material? As for dating agencies in Brazil, there must be plenty of them in Brazil? The ladies there also want do leave for America, more opportunities here after all despite warm weather and nice beaches down there  ;D. Still crime is a problem in cities like Rio, a human life is not worth much there. Many wants to just escape poverty, high crime and poverty in paradise. They are not all that patriotic after all  ::)

When you guys mention Colombia I think of Shakira,  then I remember she is half Lebanese and has an Arab name, so she really isn't typical of a Colombian woman still, very pretty and talented. This brings me to the next question, people ask me often, why Russia,why not a woman from Lebanon?
