Not long ago, Slavic men were considered the standard of beauty in
European countries. Foreign ladies attributed to Russian gentlemen
masculinity and perfect appearance. But over the last century
Russian man’s image is overgrown with myths and unfounded
stereotypes that changed the idea of europeans about Russians
cavaliers
Foreign women can be divided into 3 groups:
- who have never been to Russia
- who are in contact with Russian men,
- have a russian husband.
Первая группа женщин никогда не видела Россию
with my own eyes. Therefore, they judge Russian men by the well-established
stereotypes that are widely used in foreign
TV channels. In the movies and TV shows the male half of Russia
exposed in the guise of drunks, rowdy, family brawlers,
unshaven and unkempt persons. This also includes the opinion that
Russian man does not like deodorant, but prefers “natural
perfume “combined with the scent of fumes.
Among the women of this group, there is also an opinion that young people
from Russia – passionate lovers. But at the same time, they are tasteless.
dress and want to appear more meaningful than they really are
business
Ко второй группе иностранок относятся дамы, которые
лично знакомы с русскими кавалерами. For work or school they
contacted or continue to maintain contact with the Russians. These
Women emphasize the spiritual breadth and generosity of Russian men. But
they do not deny the fact of their physical iniquity.
Foreign women who have been to Russia reward young people with such
epithets: a good friend, the soul of the company, open, sincere, ready
help in difficult times. Europeans particularly like the fact that
Russian gentleman is not greedy and always willing to pay for lunch or
dinner in a restaurant.
But дамы этой группы отмечают и отрицательную черту российских
men: the indifference and rudeness shown by them in public
transport.
Третья группа иностранок — самая малочисленная. It –
women from foreign countries who linked fate with Russians
мужчинами. According to statistics, such marriages are common in
creative environment.
Foreign wives describe their Russian husbands like this.
in the following way:
- �“He has something to talk about!
- He is romantic!
- He understands the woman better!
- He is not pragmatic and generous! ”
Recently, most of these marriages are between
Russian musicians and foreigners, Russian football players and
by europeans.
Foreign ladies of different groups note the main features.
Russian men who do not go unnoticed:
- the positive qualities of a Russian man exceed his
limitations;
- they are inattentive to their appearance and often rude
girls in public places;
- Russian young people are open, soulful and emotional.
But основное преимущество русского мужчины в том, что с ним
never get bored. And this fact is constantly emphasized.
