Russian Girls And Their Family Values

By Lera Cupidonova

Russian girls live in Russian. This is a country located in the northern part of Europe and borders Poland, Norway and Finland among others. Russia is among the world's biggest countries. Its among the world's most populous countries too.

Women from Russia are known for their beauty and trim figures. Learning to look beautify for her husband is one of the things she learns when she is young. She also uses makeup well to to enhance her beauty.

She is taught as early as possible to possess positive and high family values. Culturally, she is required to get a husband and children when she grows up. She becomes a respectable society member when she gets married. Single women in this country are sneered at by society members. So, success of a Russian girl is defined by getting married and having children.

Many of the girls are well educated since education is free in Russia. However, the system favors men when it comes to jobs. It is easier for a man to get a job than it is for a woman despite her being equally qualified. This is why Russian women prefer putting their values on family rather than on careers.

The Russian society expects a woman to neglect or sacrifice her career when she gets married. In fact, employers normally prefer to promote men who they consider as the breadwinners. Therefore, the girls find self realization in a family while men find theirs in careers.

A Russian girl has a great desire to build a family that is strong. In fact she would rather assist her man to advance in his career rather than advancing hers. According to her, this is one way of sharing family responsibilities. It is her belief that the man is responsible for providing for the family financially while she provides love and warmth in the home.

These beliefs should not be mistaken for laziness or parasitism. These are hard working women. They take care of chores in the home like cleaning, laundry and cooking. They can readily work to provide additional income for the family. However, if they earn more than the husband, they feel uncomfortable.

This shows that they still hold their traditional family values where the man is the head of the family. They happily allow the man to lead. They see nothing wrong in needing a man in their lives and being led by him.

This doesn't make her weak in any way. For her, marriage is joining of two equal partners. As a result, she doesn't like to be ordered around. She does not allow herself to be treated like a doormat by her husband. She needs her husband to respect and appreciate her and she does the same in return.

Russian girls usually search for partners who they can share their life with forever. Therefore, they search for mature partners who can sustain the marriage. This is due to the fact that they are convinced that families and marriages are permanent. Therefore, anything that may cause their family to break would not be entertained.
