Russian Women and Hunting by Internet

It's funny when you see or hear comments made about Western men "hunting" or "trawling" for beautiful Russian women on the internet.

Of course, such comments are usually made by (so-called) feminists, or jealous guys who are either in unhappy relationships, or just haven't got the "balls" to go and do something life-changing out there in the big wide world.

But hang-on a second. Who's doing the hunting anyway?

It seems obvious to me that it's not so much the guys that have "gone hunting", but rather the women.

It's the women that have created this market, by having the great courage to look abroad from their own country to seek a life partner.

Good on them! When you think about it, that's an incredibly gutsy thing to do. They are that determined to find a suitable husband, that they are prepared to not only go through all the possible difficulties of long-distance relationship-building, but then to leave their country, their family, their friends, their familiar surroundings & culture, their language, jobs & recognized educational qualifications, etc, etc.

Would you do that?

Let's face it - most of us would not, but then we don't feel we are forced into that position, therefore it's difficult to truly understand what it's like to be in that position. As I have already indicated - I think they deserve much credit, and respect, for their courage and determination.

Now that the "marketplace" is there, and made so visible and accessable via the internet, of course men looking for partners are going to have a look.

Especially when the women are most often very attractive, presenting themselves well, and they convey in their profile information that they are generally just looking for the simple things in life, and the opportunity to fulfil their dream of being a great wife and mother.

So who is the hunted, and who is doing the hunting?

In the end it doesn't even matter. The good thing is that women and men are getting together to fulfil their dreams, regardless of distance, language, or other considerations which may have seemed difficult to overcome in the past, but are now, more than ever, easily overcome.

Stick with me.
I'll keep feeding you plenty more info, especially more of the "HOW" variety!

Shaun, thanks for doing this and I sure hope this is all on the level. I've been looking at the Ukraine/Russian marriage things for a few months now and it's been daunting. I'm often not sure what's real or not real and reading your blog has helped me feel hopeful about my search.
