Ladies from the Ukraine

I think barabaika was just being ironic.

Why am I limited to the South? I've never been there, I prefer the West.

Or is it about foreign ladies from the Southern Countries? Colombian or Brazilian muchachas are great.

In a global economy and with the internet, Russia or the former council states and their people are closer than ever! Minus the paperwork nightmare to go or come from there to US. Anyway, having sailed to Rumania in the Navy ... I find the ladies more interesting and willing to treat a guy better than American women ... if they are treated with dignity and respect. That is why I am interesting in finding a lovely Russian/Ukraine sweetie to have lots of fun in the future! Jeff

Firstly, not all Americans are stupid. Yes there are plenty of ignorant Americans but no more so than there are ignorant Europeans Indians… It seems to just have to do with their perspective which is often a micro instead of macro. I have lived in the states almost 6 years and the majority of people are the same as every ware else again the difference is perspective and need. In the US women have no problem screwing around and most have never understood hardship. Waste is plentiful but also cultural in the United States. The perspective of what is important is often lost on American women instead of life enjoyment and peace it’s often taken up with minor squabbles and conflict. This may just be an issue of the human condition though I guess it’s relatable/comparable to Maslow’s needs hierarchy.
Barabaika, unless you actually travel to the states and go from, North to South, East to West it’s hard to conceive the size of the US. Each corner has a completely different dynamic. As the US is in fact a conglomeration of 50+ little states with different laws climates and core languages it creates a polarized look from one area to another. This is no different than Europe which is arguably a confederation EU. And I would bet you know as little about the states as they do about the rest of the world. The comparison is eerily similar, many large governments grouped together to form a big one with weak power and sharing the same currency to create stabilization. I want to make it clear I am not ripping on you, just trying to open your perspective you sound awfully similar to many of the people you push to insult.
Having soldiered around for a few years and met many people from different countries. I have come to find the sexual dynamic between the genders is very different in every country. Russia and the Ukraine seem to be hitting their own sexual revolutions. This is exceptionally interesting as the dynamic of relationships has changed there women are moving from what is good for the village to what is good for themselves mentality. This phenomenon is occurring much quicker in India with the economic boom as well and a slightly different way than Eastern Europe. My point is people who are travelers in there heart are always looking for something different something better. Many of the women I met in Australia just liked the way Americans and Canadians treated them. It is possible that many of these ladies feel the same. Another possibility for some of the ladies is they see what some people have made of themselves in the US poor to rich unhappy to happy and just want that., the American dream thing.
My friend married Ukrainian women from Odessa and she if pushing him to move over there when he retires they met online. The other thing is aesthetics/ attractiveness from the male to female prospective. Russian, Australian, Ukrainian women are often drop dead gorgeous and straight forward if they don’t like something it’s not guesswork to figure out what’s wrong.
Women are women every ware you go it’s just the perspective of importance that is different.

Hey Joolsy,

I must agree with you on this matter.
However, I also must make few additional points.
Although. most red-blooded Americans lack the geographical knowledge,
by default, it's difficult to blame.
Quite simple:
We have 50 States with 50 different Capitals.
Each State functions much like an individual country.
Meaning, each State has it's own military, Supreme Court, budget, etc.
But all under the basic Federal laws, rules and regulations.

I don't recall any EU nation with these types of system?
Actually, isn't that what EU has been trying to to do?
To assimilate United States in collective [or pooling] economic power and function as one nation?
However, I believe EU constitution is over 143 pages long and still not finished?
We have one big page for our constitution.
I must say, it's a task I have many respect for EU.

Also, in terms of geographical knowledge?
In this case, Size does matter!
Example:
In EU, if I can drive 6 hours non-stop [if it was possible and at speed limit],
I can drive through 12 countries.
Now, if I was to drive 6 hours in Texas or California, I will still be in Texas or California!

So, yes, we should have more knowledge of the rest of the world.
Unfortunately, most of us have hard time remembering,
50 Capital?, 50 different driving laws, taxes, gun laws, etc...

Yes, he was clearly being sarcastic, and now Joolsy just looks like the stereotypical snooty Englishman. And that's what we call irony.

Assuming that everyone in the American South is stupid is much like expecting England to be a Guy Ritchie movie, or expecting everyone in Russia to have a bottle of vodka on them.
