There are many myths created about Russian brides that make them sound too good to be true. Let us see what they are and if they have some ground in reality.
Myth #1: All Russian women look like models.
In reality, this is one of the generalizations about how beautiful Russian women are. Well, the highest grade of how real Russian women look would be seven on a scale from one to ten, which is quite high for the whole nation, by the way. Not every woman in Russia looks like a model, of course, but you will surely be charmed by the natural beauty and good looks of the majority of them once you are in Russia.
Myth #2: Russian women are family oriented.
In reality, if you compare Russian and American women, you will see that Russian women are indeed more family oriented than Western women. Nevertheless, many modern women in Russia set their priorities exactly in the way that is popular in the West, preferring to develop their careers first. But as soon as they become wives and mothers, their families become the highest priority due to a strong cultural tradition of homage to the family in Russia. This value is formed in Russian girls in the process of traditional upbringing and education. It is also deep in the Russian culture to rely on the family members in hardships of life and share the happy moments together. It explains that fact why Russian women are so dedicated to their families.
Myth #3: Russian women want to leave their country by all means.
This opinion is formed due to the negative feedbacks and experiences of foreign men who were unlucky enough to meet with scammers. Most of online scammers are not even females. These are criminal groups and illegitimate agencies using women’s pictures to get money from western men seeking Russian brides.
In reality, many Russian women would hesitate to leave their country even if they have the opportunity to do it, because it means leaving behind their families, friends and careers that can be very successful, by the way. They would think twice and be weighing all pros and cons for a long time before making the final decision.
Myth #4: Money does not play a significant role to Russian women.
In reality, economic security is sought by Russian women in the first place when they look for western husbands. Another important requirement though is finding a compatible partner capable of forming and developing fulfilling relationships with them. It does not mean you have to be a millionaire. They just need you to invest into the relationship and be a committed partner. It also implies that you would have a decent job and provide for the family so that they would be able to support a comfortable lifestyle. The reason is, some women just get sick and tired of the low salaries and economic instability they face in Russia and marrying a western man who would provide for them and the family seems a good way to solve this problem.
These are just few myths covered in this article. Some of them are true, and some are not. Anyway, you must be very careful, patient and persistent while looking for a Russian bride.
