Why do Russian woman search for foreign husband? What age difference would you say is acceptable between foreign men and Russian women?
First of all, Russian women search for a husband abroad because of the deficiency of men in Russia/ Ukraine: there are less men than women in Russia. Men die earlier, or are subject to serious illnesses. As a result, every tenth woman at the age of 35 can’t find a partner for a marriage. Then all over the world Russian men are known for their hard drinking. This problem exists in other countries as well, but not on such large scale. This is so often in Russia that if a husband doesn’t drink, he is considered almost an angel, even if he is far from being nice. The other problem is many men in Russia believe they should be allowed to have as many mistresses as they want. Besides, there is crisis of modern Russia (saying Russia we mean other countries of ex-USSR – Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Kazakhstan, etc). Russian living standards differ from Western ones, and every woman wants stability for her family, she needs to be sure in her children’s future, so women try to settle themselves in
