I just stumbled across your excellent article "Russian Women: Myths and Reality" and I wanted to say Thank You for such an honest and insightful piece of writing! It's so helpful to read an honest and objective opinion. Clearly you have thought about these relationships a lot -- after all you live in one yourself -- and I'm impressed with the clarity of your insight and by the way you very honestly explain all the myths, and do not try to reduce your opinions to simple or easy explanations. Thank you!

Thank you for the time you've taken to put together a good 'Reality Check' for all the nonsense currently surrounding the notion of a Russian wife. While I think that many American men may be attracted to the fantasy of the Perfect Russian Bride (beautiful, young, easy and eager to please), your essays made clear the simple and wonderful truth: Russian women are human beings, with all the glory and tragedy that comes with that condition.
