I worked with 5 russian nurses in the US and all of them talked about money, expensive things and finding a rich man for them don't have to work anymore.
same here in japan...Recently I started to date a amazing guy,and was talking about him with one of these russians co workers,,...she just looked at me and asked: he is spending money on u?if he is not spending lot of money on u is because he doesnt like u. I got absolutely disgusted.I work for everything I get,I just cant undestand that,stupid,.
Natty It’s called traditionalism. No man wants a snotty “independent” woman. The reason you can’t understand it is because you’ve been brainwashed with third wave feminism. What disgusts men is today’s western female. They can go fuck themselves.
A person can change their looks, change their geography, change anything & everything. If someone is unhappy personally, no amount of physical change will give happiness.
Actually she lives in Corona. It is like good 1.5 hours drive from LA. She is so screwed up on her head that there is no chance in hell she could be a psychologist. This poor thing hates herself to the bone and she is planning to help someone else with psych problems!!!!???
Xlora Yaltova like Melania Trump' degrees in Architecture, speaks 5 languages,High class model etc.these girls are just good looking bodies with air head liars.
Oh what an old movie, look at all this 20 years old fashion! It could be interesting to see these women now to get to know how much their lives changed after such a long period of time!..
The man who got them over there conned the fuck out of them. The average cost of rent for a 3bedroom house out there is like $800 and groceries are dirt cheap. So why is he just feeding them. (Probably spent his savings getting them from Russia to the states) But she's right.. it is like a 100-200 mile drive to anything worthwhile. I bet when they got off the airplane at lax they were so excited and then after that long ass drive from Los Angeles to apple valley into their shitty ass city sent their emotions on a roller coaster.
@@ivorymccloud5470 My friend lives in Lucerne Valley---also an awful, hideous desert place. Easily competes with Apple Valley for "Worst place in CA" to live. These poor women.
Ironically, the blonde girl who thinks she doesn't fit in, speaks such perfect English without an accent, I would think she was not even a foreigner but a native American. I imagine Ukraine is so different she will never feel at home. But she probably makes a lot of money and can and should travel back there a lot each year. Maybe if she brings a sibling over to stay with her she would not feel so lonely.
Some of these women are constantly thinking the grass is greener on the other side. The truth is that their mentality and unrealistic expectations are ruining their own chances of simple happiness. Sad.

Um from Brazil and I have been living in Boston for the last 20 years, and I can say that we Brazilian women are usually perceived at the same way by most Americans. Sad! But true!
That's exactly what I was thinking! Like what the hell is she posing like that for? I say GOLD DIGGER, looking for a rich man or a spot in hustler magazine!!!! With her damn little dog! Okay I am done with this crap
It's their culture, women make sure they look presentable in public and they do it to get attention It's very traditional and logical. In America women wear sweatpants to Walmart like they just jumped out of bed, there's no class or sense of priorities. Not just Russian but most eastern European women are ready to raise a family and what's wrong with that. They are traditional Christian's, where the man is the head of the family. Where are Americans values? They act like they are Christian's but just to look good without following it's teachings. Proverbs 21:19 "It’s better to live alone in the desert than with a quarrelsome, complaining wife." I'm not religious but there's alot of sense in that. I won't raise a family that is okay with disrespecting people my kids would have a miserable life. The family unit is the core indicator of the value of a country so let's raise good families. 39:55 Love comes from respect. The issue goes much deeper, if you're kids are raised in an environment of hostility and aggression they will grow up and treat the opposite sex like that and raise their kids like that etc. Do Americans want to perpetuate hatred and disharmony? I mean America is already known for having the highest divorce rates in the world. I see it getting better because feminism is now being hated everywhere especially by women. I'm glad it's changing.
I think the issue with a lot of these ladies are that they thought that the grass was greener on the other side and that all of there personal problems would be solved if they “only came to America”. In reality, most of them were already pessimistic, and entitled with unrealistic expectations to begin with. I feel a lot of the women on here need to take sometime to truly look at themselves than blaming their environment. Wherever you go in this world you take yourself with you. Only you can make yourself happy.
Yep, and what exactly is being studied? One woman admits she does speak English and is just there looking for an American to marry. How the hell are the US immigration letting them in? No skill set, no profession she is just a chacer.
I don't care how beautiful she is, no man will give a woman constant attention such as gifts, trips, flowers, money. When you are married many years, all that fades away. You are left just with the two of you. That is the truth
Hollywood films that were shown in the countries of the former Soviet Union, day and night, in which everything was in order, like in a fairy tale, are to blame for the fact that the woman believed in this story, and in fact everything turned out differently
lived across the street from a russian family the dad was very nice and polite the rest of the family were fucking nightmares and very snobby and loud all thru the damn night loud techno music full blast i hated living across from them !!!!!
Like all people everywhere, you have to make your own happiness. If you think that everything should be handed to you on a silver platter, then honey, grow up! If America isn't to your liking, there are many other countries to chose from. Why not try Mexico or Greece? To the ladies that found happiness here, we're glad to have you. To the ones who are miserable because they bought into the idea that the "streets are all paved with gold", keep moving on.
1. American men looking for foreign wives are not typical American men, and they are statistically less wealthy than average. 2. Foreign women coming to the U.S. looking for American husbands are not the typical foreign women.
well, Most russian women abroad use to look for the local man for marriage. Most russian men abroad use to look for russian women anyway. If they don't find them in the place they live, they will go to their homeland
I have a Ukrainian girlfriend. I have known her for many years and I am very attached to her. But I cannot make her happy. It's about money, nice things, days full of interest or entertainment. My life is too mundane for her. So in spite of my love for her I know that it will never work out. I cannot give her what she wants.
I am Ukrainian. And I work hard in oder to give my husband good education. Just because I appreciate him so much. It doesn't depend on nationality, but depends on person.
The dark haired Latin man reminds me of the little side kick guy on Fantasy Island back in the 70's- 80's. Remember the Little Person who always said "Look, boss, Le' plane, le' plane" Whenever the new guests arrived on the island.
She actually never said "person", but she said "chelovek". It's a respectful way to say man. "Chelovek" mean husband or man in Polish, Ukrainian and old Russian. It's a holdover from Old Slavic. She said it with respect for him. It is a mistake in translation and not knowing linguistics enough.
I feel really badly for the lady in Apple Valley with the 2 teen daughters.. the two girls enjoy their life and have adjusted ok.. but she( the Mom of the two teens), was deceived about what her actual living conditions would be, you can tell she's severely depressed. I hope she's able to get a job and eventually have a chance to get more of a life.My heart goes out to her.
Is she severely depressed, or is she just being honest? Also, in Ukraine and Russia people are very negative. They talk negatively all the time, not like in the US. So she is just projecting her culture.
Before making such loud statements, it is worth thinking at least a little more. You've probably never been to a sad, poor Russia that has no men. So no need to tell fairy tales
@@spcpuctp Yet Svetlana rants and raves about the Russian men with soul-beauty, with spiritual qualities, excellent upbringing, beautiful character and intellectual minds. She romanticizes Russian men in all of her segments, which betrays the point of this film, I believe. Her segments actually hurt this film. The other women seem relatable and honest about their struggles - Svletlana is given so much time in this film and yet doesn't add anything other than sanctimoniously talk AT the viewer. She's literally stuck in her own fairy tale I guess?
American men think that marrying a woman more than half their age will get honest love in return??? Women all over the world are not stupid: if they’re willing to compromise about age, at least the older partner should be well off... These russian women are bored because in Russia they are used to go often to the theatre, opera, ballet, concerts of classical music whereas in America pastimes are different.
This documentary looks about 15 years old. Also where in the world do you regularly see people who weigh as much as 300kg? That's around one tonne. I think that woman's calculations are way off. 300lbs isn't even a common weight in America. Most fat Americans weigh in the 200s.
I think this woman craps on and on trying to find reasons for why things don't work out, It gets kinda boring over time just listening to her in general
Посмотрела фильм и неоднозначное отношение ко всему, комментарии конечно есть очень злые от американцев в том числе, не ожидала, что они будут настолько злыми. Пишу на русском, так как не могу писать на английском, да это вот такая большая проблема в незнании многими нами английского языка. Но если кто захочет, тот переведет. Я согласна со многими, что жаловаться на страну, в которую ты переехал по собственному желанию глупо, надо было оставаться на родине. Но, в России и на Украине большое количество женщин, которые либо разведены, либо воспитывают детей без мужа. Обхаивать американских мужчин, что они мало зарабатывают или не такие духовные, это тоже неправильно. Женщина, которая ругает мужа за то, что он работает всего 8 часов и ему ничего не надо, сама из себя ничего не представляет в настоящий момент. Она не знает английский, у нее нет хорошего образования, и в ближайшее время ее на высокооплачиваемую и нечерную работу никто не возьмет. Значит не надо было ехать туда, где не нравится. У нее дети, и почему-то новый муж должен обеспечивать ее и двух ее детей. Она должна только жаловаться. Но мне хотелось, чтобы американцы поняли, что русские все разные, есть самодостаточные женщины, которые очень хорошо зарабатывают и в Америку ехать не собираются. А то, что любят театры, это да, так как это доступно, стоит недорого, в отличии от Лондона, например. И в заключении мне хочется написать, не надо делать выводы только по этому фильму. Сколько людей, столько судеб, столько же и мнений. Всем желаю удачи!!!!
The girl who said about the Americans that they were selfish, that's not entirely true as it depends on the state and family. Exactly the same Russian men is, they live in Moscow, such as selfish!!! Everywhere in different ways... And this girl lives in San Francisco, what it says is clear...)
Алёна Романова I think these Russian women are probably shocked when they get here. Their concept of America before they get here is more like it used to be. When they get here and see 50% of income is given to one type of tax or another, most Americans live paycheck to paycheck, lack of good paying jobs, houses that cost 5 times what they are worth, very little tradition. Must be very shocking and disappointing, especially for those living in places like Victorville and Apple Valley.
Yes I agree with you. Those women wouldn't stand a chance if they were trying to date from Russia. They would be considered old as well LOL :D ... The blonde (gym rat) is her own problem. She lives in place where many men are immature and fake and LA is the armpit of the USA when it comes to finding a real person. Many of those people are stressed out and are swallowed up by the insanity. I mean if the Russian men are more sensitive, then why is she here?
Seems to me the fiancee visa you have in the states is open to abuse, both ways. The successful story I see here is the man who met is wife at a concert and flew back and forth for a year getting to know each other. The rest are discontented at varying degrees.
I feel bad for the first girl because she’s the only one who bothered to learn the language . She doesn’t understand that most everyone in Los Angeles is fake and self centered. I’d love to date her I’d treat her with respect . But currently I live in Utah I used to live in California for 30 years. I would never move to another country without being fluent in the language first.
She doesn't fit in and has a hard time making connections? She lives in California, the epicenter of everything wrong with Western Culture. She's spot on about not making friends with other women (they view her as a threat) and that people make "friends" based on what they can extract out of the other person. Better off moving to her country, get a second passport and citizenship and visit the US if you really feel like you're missing something here (I'm not). You can always move your bride to a non Westernized country that won't poison her with their toxic culture if you don't like Russia.
I'm in complete agreement with you - she epitomizes the hypocrisy men often attribute to unmarriageable single women with double-standards, and her smug self-righteousness is ridiculous in this. I really do wonder if she was a parody characterization placed into this film to add comedic value? All of the other other characters seemed authentic. Svetlana's segments seem contrived and very forced. What an unlikable person. She hurts this film, doesn't help it, that's for sure.
I'm not sure what that instructor thinks he's doing at 48:00 but he's definitely DOING IT WRONG! Standing in front of the barrel of a gun (loaded or not) is a super bad idea. Kind of like most of the women in this documentary...
I was thinking the same. He took an awful lot of time between her legs to get her into position just to turn around and totally change it. And standing in front of a rifle.....I don't care if he's 1000% sure that it's not loaded....that is one hell of a big NO NO!!!!!
I couldn't believe that he did that - I've watched that scene a couple of times just to see if maybe he was trying to get a better vantage point at her décolletage or something like that?
I think what annoys women isn't so much the feminist aspect, most of us have brothers and fathers and we see how hard they work for their money. The idea of someone trying to just manipulate them for material stuff with no real emotion gets to people. Especially women because we know how easy is to do that rather than get a job. Not to disparage hard working women who move around with good intentions. Just the bad apples out there. For all the men saying that women need to be more 'feminine', would you let random hot guys flirt with your mothers/sisters with the intention to use them? No. As a couple you elevate each other and earn together, both invest in each other. If it gets onesided then there is no point
If he invests money in her, gives gifts, trips, etc., she "pays" him with her body, obedience and devotion. Whether anyone likes it or not, that's a fact. And if there are men who go for it, it means that the relationship is still equivalent, at least as long as the woman is young and beautiful. I anticipate your indignation, believe me, men are too pragmatic. They understand everything perfectly, and as soon as the "toy" gets bored, they change it to a new one. Those cases that were described in the video, don't quite fit what I just wrote. It's more about the same desire to get a more compliant and less emancipated woman, but it's more about traditional foundations than about gold diggers. In turn, women, no matter how emancipated they are, are irritated by their unpopularity among men with traditional views.
It seems as though Southern California has impacted Leeza in a negative way. It's sad that she has become so worried about the opinions of others. The fact that she feels the need to lie about her Heritage is disconcerting.
Call me crazy, but surprisingly I feel bad for Marina. Yes, she appears to exhibit some of the so called gold-digger mentality but, it sounds like she was deceived first by her then soon-to-be husband’s misrepresentations of having some ‘gold’.
I agree that Russian men, and in general all men from former Soviet Union, are better educated and more spiritually interesting than western men. In fact I am going to marry an Ukrainian man.
So what makes you think that my eastern european boyfriend isn't handsome, intelligent and hard-worker? I am tired of russian women unsussessful in finding a good russian man that for revange describe all russian men like loser. This is the typical behavour of desperate spinsters, sorry but that's it. For the rest, peace. :)
Sorry but he works hard and in any case i have never stayed with a man for his money, i am not a Russian woman. I can provide a wage too to raise the family balance. ;-)
+tom11zz884 Excuse me. Only 1% Russian man drinking vodka. But Russian women drink vodka too. I am Russian man from Moscow and I don't drink alcohol and don't cheat. You have stereotipes. I want that you change your see. Please to get penpals friend(men) from Russia. Or buy ticket to Russia. More Russian men don't drink. If Russian men are not spiritual, that and Russian women are not spiritual. Western men, why do you have double standards? If western men + russian women = OK. If western women + russian men = BAD. Do you serious think all Russian men alcoholic and cheat? Are you jealous of American women? Why are you negative to Russian men + Western women? I live in Russia and every weekend go to Church. More Russian believe at God. Sorry for my English, my dear freinds.
My neighbor married a Russian Mail Order Bride. She missed her "brother",So dumbass American hubby brings her brother here. She was pregnant in 2 months after her "brother" arrived. Turn out brother was her Russian husband. My neighbor vouched for both of them for Visas and living. Neighbor list his house.
Most of these men are very very average in American if not lower on the socio econonmic ladder.,They are just looking for a good wife who would love them. Sad. Many of us American women are no longer slaves in the 50's. I'm somewhat traditional, but men are looking for a stephhord wife from that 1970's horror film. BTW I was born in San Francisco, CA and am in my 40s SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS (married to a mexican american born in San Francisco (same age).
That first woman seems completely unbelievable to this Californian, but maybe there are things going on that I don't know about. First , I can't believe she picked up English with a perfect Southern California accent and vocabulary that quickly. Second, the stuff about being subjected to stereotypes about Russian women. I don't think many of the people around me think Russian women are drunk and promiscuous, or have any opinion at all about them, really. Finally, if she's all she claims to be, I can't imagine her having difficulty in finding a man who isn't a jerk, or people who are just friendly. OTOH I don't know why she or the film makers would lie about it. Just baffled.
Sure, Leeza is completely wrong where she is. I also could not live in California. She really needs a child. And she should move to Massachusetts or some other state in around the corner. I don't think she is crazy, I think she is clever and would do a lot for Mr. Right.
I think she has very high standards as she said she gets a lot of men coming up to her asking for dates. Could you imagine being around her strutting around like she does on the beach it would be like being on a movie set it would be strange and it would be like hullo I'm here do you see me but she would be thinking how does she look is she looking attractive for the camera.
Anytime a californian thinks, should be a federal crime. Thanks for your comment, and good luck preserving the beautiful geography of your state. Lord knows theres millions of you writing stupid comments because you "thought" so.
Filipino men are very family oriented person and caring also compare to other nationality, Always compliments to all beautiful women around the world. Russians & Ukrainians but all European women also 🥰❤ I hope I can find a European women to be my girlfriend or soon to be my wife.
I will pray for her happy ending. She needs and seems to DESERVE her Prince Charming/ White Knight. I wish her a Noble and enchanting finish to the game of love.
Some Russians that I have met living in the US can be very rude. But once you get to know them they are great people. Their needs are the same as all others.
I'm laughing so hard at this! Wouldn't the high concentration of alcohol and other ingredients hurt the scalp and hair? I'm sure there is lots of crap in our normal hair products, but PERFUME?!
Her list of stereotypes is way off. People think of attractive Russian women as materialistic, gold diggers, here to take advantage of guys. That’s pretty much it.
I worked with 5 russian nurses in the US and all of them talked about money, expensive things and finding a rich man for them don't have to work anymore.

Before making such loud statements, it is worth thinking at least a little more. You've probably never been to a sad, poor Russia that has no men. So no need to tell fairy tales
@@spcpuctp Yet Svetlana rants and raves about the Russian men with soul-beauty, with spiritual qualities, excellent upbringing, beautiful character and intellectual minds. She romanticizes Russian men in all of her segments, which betrays the point of this film, I believe. Her segments actually hurt this film. The other women seem relatable and honest about their struggles - Svletlana is given so much time in this film and yet doesn't add anything other than sanctimoniously talk AT the viewer. She's literally stuck in her own fairy tale I guess?
A Russian girl is just Brutally honest and thats the only way to be.... In the end she has found freedom in that truth because it sets you free
no honnest , hypocrits!
I hope she found a flight back
@@edwardwhite221 Why?
Most woman have a lil split second glance at a man and they have already judged him.
American men think that marrying a woman more than half their age will get honest love in return??? Women all over the world are not stupid: if they’re willing to compromise about age, at least the older partner should be well off... These russian women are bored because in Russia they are used to go often to the theatre, opera, ballet, concerts of classical music whereas in America pastimes are different.
This documentary looks about 15 years old. Also where in the world do you regularly see people who weigh as much as 300kg? That's around one tonne. I think that woman's calculations are way off. 300lbs isn't even a common weight in America. Most fat Americans weigh in the 200s.
@39:17 "guys are afraid of beautiful women; they are afraid of being rejected"
yeah right, I'm sure that's the reason why guys aren't hitting on you
I think this woman craps on and on trying to find reasons for why things don't work out, It gets kinda boring over time just listening to her in general
Records of 10 years, if not more
these housewives will have extramarital affairs-.- when the right guy comes along
wren54446 wren hoo, hoo, dang, I hope I'm the right guy at the right time then.. cause they are all fine!!!
Посмотрела фильм и неоднозначное отношение ко всему, комментарии конечно есть очень злые от американцев в том числе, не ожидала, что они будут настолько злыми. Пишу на русском, так как не могу писать на английском, да это вот такая большая проблема в незнании многими нами английского языка. Но если кто захочет, тот переведет. Я согласна со многими, что жаловаться на страну, в которую ты переехал по собственному желанию глупо, надо было оставаться на родине. Но, в России и на Украине большое количество женщин, которые либо разведены, либо воспитывают детей без мужа. Обхаивать американских мужчин, что они мало зарабатывают или не такие духовные, это тоже неправильно. Женщина, которая ругает мужа за то, что он работает всего 8 часов и ему ничего не надо, сама из себя ничего не представляет в настоящий момент. Она не знает английский, у нее нет хорошего образования, и в ближайшее время ее на высокооплачиваемую и нечерную работу никто не возьмет. Значит не надо было ехать туда, где не нравится. У нее дети, и почему-то новый муж должен обеспечивать ее и двух ее детей. Она должна только жаловаться. Но мне хотелось, чтобы американцы поняли, что русские все разные, есть самодостаточные женщины, которые очень хорошо зарабатывают и в Америку ехать не собираются. А то, что любят театры, это да, так как это доступно, стоит недорого, в отличии от Лондона, например. И в заключении мне хочется написать, не надо делать выводы только по этому фильму. Сколько людей, столько судеб, столько же и мнений. Всем желаю удачи!!!!
Totally understand the feelings .....😭
I hope Leeza is doing good and happy today.... minus COVID😇
The girl who said about the Americans that they were selfish, that's not entirely true as it depends on the state and family. Exactly the same Russian men is, they live in Moscow, such as selfish!!! Everywhere in different ways... And this girl lives in San Francisco, what it says is clear...)
Алёна Романова I think these Russian women are probably shocked when they get here. Their concept of America before they get here is more like it used to be. When they get here and see 50% of income is given to one type of tax or another, most Americans live paycheck to paycheck, lack of good paying jobs, houses that cost 5 times what they are worth, very little tradition. Must be very shocking and disappointing, especially for those living in places like Victorville and Apple Valley.
Yes I agree with you. Those women wouldn't stand a chance if they were trying to date from Russia. They would be considered old as well LOL :D ... The blonde (gym rat) is her own problem. She lives in place where many men are immature and fake and LA is the armpit of the USA when it comes to finding a real person. Many of those people are stressed out and are swallowed up by the insanity. I mean if the Russian men are more sensitive, then why is she here?
@@beaumontmuni Apparently, even such old women are not led to you, so you are evil.
Yeah the red head with the fringe chick annoys me
This is the most weirdly awkward and poorly made piece of filmmaking I've seen since The Room.
The Room was an awesome movie.
Seems to me the fiancee visa you have in the states is open to abuse, both ways. The successful story I see here is the man who met is wife at a concert and flew back and forth for a year getting to know each other. The rest are discontented at varying degrees.
These girls are describing life in America but they are in California mostly superficial people.
umm...so where are the "beauties"?
😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅
the dogs are
All this girls look much better then your mum or wife
You obviously read a book by its' cover

I feel bad for the first girl because she’s the only one who bothered to learn the language . She doesn’t understand that most everyone in Los Angeles is fake and self centered. I’d love to date her I’d treat her with respect . But currently I live in Utah I used to live in California for 30 years. I would never move to another country without being fluent in the language first.
NO MONEY NO HONEY
She doesn't fit in and has a hard time making connections? She lives in California, the epicenter of everything wrong with Western Culture. She's spot on about not making friends with other women (they view her as a threat) and that people make "friends" based on what they can extract out of the other person.
Better off moving to her country, get a second passport and citizenship and visit the US if you really feel like you're missing something here (I'm not). You can always move your bride to a non Westernized country that won't poison her with their toxic culture if you don't like Russia.
Ok Russian. But where were the beauties?
Was this video made in the 90’s??
Oh well I wish happiness to all !
Watching this - you see why some Americans think Ukraine and Russia are the same country (the title of the documentary does not mention Ukraine)
Svetlana doesn't know anything and she knows everything at the same time.
I'm in complete agreement with you - she epitomizes the hypocrisy men often attribute to unmarriageable single women with double-standards, and her smug self-righteousness is ridiculous in this. I really do wonder if she was a parody characterization placed into this film to add comedic value? All of the other other characters seemed authentic. Svetlana's segments seem contrived and very forced. What an unlikable person. She hurts this film, doesn't help it, that's for sure.
You look great together a good couple!
These interviews were like back in late 90s, early 2000s. Back then ex-Soviet countries were worse than now.
.30 she 28 years old?? she look 50!!!
Shes not 28 she looks about 40 for sure
@@mrsbee5056 oohh 40 is ok😃
It's an old documentary so her hair and fashion sense is very out of style.
It makes me angry,when people are prejudiced towards people from other countries,without getting to know them
Your amazing.dont worry what other people think.youll meet good and bad.the rest are all jelious.
How can you marry a woman if you can't understand Russian or she doesn't know English?
I'm not sure what that instructor thinks he's doing at 48:00 but he's definitely DOING IT WRONG!
Standing in front of the barrel of a gun (loaded or not) is a super bad idea.
Kind of like most of the women in this documentary...
Agreed. You NEVER do that. Is he insane?
I was thinking the same. He took an awful lot of time between her legs to get her into position just to turn around and totally change it. And standing in front of a rifle.....I don't care if he's 1000% sure that it's not loaded....that is one hell of a big NO NO!!!!!
Really?
I couldn't believe that he did that - I've watched that scene a couple of times just to see if maybe he was trying to get a better vantage point at her décolletage or something like that?
I think what annoys women isn't so much the feminist aspect, most of us have brothers and fathers and we see how hard they work for their money. The idea of someone trying to just manipulate them for material stuff with no real emotion gets to people. Especially women because we know how easy is to do that rather than get a job. Not to disparage hard working women who move around with good intentions. Just the bad apples out there. For all the men saying that women need to be more 'feminine', would you let random hot guys flirt with your mothers/sisters with the intention to use them? No. As a couple you elevate each other and earn together, both invest in each other. If it gets onesided then there is no point
If he invests money in her, gives gifts, trips, etc., she "pays" him with her body, obedience and devotion. Whether anyone likes it or not, that's a fact. And if there are men who go for it, it means that the relationship is still equivalent, at least as long as the woman is young and beautiful. I anticipate your indignation, believe me, men are too pragmatic. They understand everything perfectly, and as soon as the "toy" gets bored, they change it to a new one. Those cases that were described in the video, don't quite fit what I just wrote. It's more about the same desire to get a more compliant and less emancipated woman, but it's more about traditional foundations than about gold diggers.
In turn, women, no matter how emancipated they are, are irritated by their unpopularity among men with traditional views.
She look almost 50
It seems as though Southern California has impacted Leeza in a negative way. It's sad that she has become so worried about the opinions of others. The fact that she feels the need to lie about her Heritage is disconcerting.
I don't know why she has to lie about her heritage. Perhaps of lack of self-confidence
I have used to work with Ukrainian girl - 28 married to 56 yo with heart problems...obviously she was mail ordered bride
That first one is less than average looking second one is even worse
If they are not happy why don't they go home, they do sound like gold-diggers.
Marina - the ultimate gold digger. Brought over her grown up kids and expecting someone else to look after her, wear heels and gowns every day.
English subtitle, Please
Such pleasant women! Такие приятные женщины! Я бы с ними поближе пообщалась. Поговорила о том, о сем. Девчонки, держитесь там!
Wait, is this fake. I'm sure I just saw the first woman a documentary about men going to Ukraine to find brides. Now she's Russian??? 🤔
Now THAT would be an interesting plot twist - I seriously think that Svetlana is too much of a caricature to be REAL. Is this whole thing a parody?
Call me crazy, but surprisingly I feel bad for Marina. Yes, she appears to exhibit some of the so called gold-digger mentality but, it sounds like she was deceived first by her then soon-to-be husband’s misrepresentations of having some ‘gold’.
I agree that Russian men, and in general all men from former Soviet Union, are better educated and more spiritually interesting than western men. In fact I am going to marry an Ukrainian man.
The only desperate one is the woman who will marry you and all those slavic women willing to marry western men for money and/or citizenship.
So what makes you think that my eastern european boyfriend isn't handsome, intelligent and hard-worker? I am tired of russian women unsussessful in finding a good russian man that for revange describe all russian men like loser. This is the typical behavour of desperate spinsters, sorry but that's it. For the rest, peace. :)
Sorry but he works hard and in any case i have never stayed with a man for his money, i am not a Russian woman. I can provide a wage too to raise the family balance. ;-)
If you want to marry a Ukrainian man, then go ahead, and be stuck with an alcoholic, vodka drinking man that will cheat on you.
+tom11zz884
Excuse me. Only 1% Russian man drinking vodka. But Russian women drink vodka too. I am Russian man from Moscow and I don't drink alcohol and don't cheat. You have stereotipes. I want that you change your see. Please to get penpals friend(men) from Russia. Or buy ticket to Russia. More Russian men don't drink.
If Russian men are not spiritual, that and Russian women are not spiritual.
Western men, why do you have double standards?
If western men + russian women = OK.
If western women + russian men = BAD.
Do you serious think all Russian men alcoholic and cheat?
Are you jealous of American women?
Why are you negative to Russian men + Western women? I live in Russia and every weekend go to Church.
More Russian believe at God.
Sorry for my English, my dear freinds.
My neighbor married a Russian Mail Order Bride. She missed her "brother",So dumbass American hubby brings her brother here. She was pregnant in 2 months after her "brother" arrived. Turn out brother was her Russian husband. My neighbor vouched for both of them for Visas and living. Neighbor list his house.
Liberate yourself from differences!
she's English Accent very good (first women) name for leeza
Beauties ? Not so much
so right about American men asking to many annoying questions ugh
This is very true! And I believe that happiness is a genetic feature....
at least they are very smart , just to generalize
Widowed father, in Iowa.(The state, not the band)
Was wondering if any of these women ever go anywhere besides California.
I would love to meet one of these Ladies that aren't married. Any chance of that?
How much money do you earn a year?
Most of these men are very very average in American if not lower on the socio econonmic ladder.,They are just looking for a good wife who would love them. Sad. Many of us American women are no longer slaves in the 50's. I'm somewhat traditional, but men are looking for a stephhord wife from that 1970's horror film. BTW I was born in San Francisco, CA and am in my 40s SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS (married to a mexican american born in San Francisco (same age).
Where are these said beauties? Oh and if they are living and studying in the US why can't some of them speak English?
That first woman seems completely unbelievable to this Californian, but maybe there are things going on that I don't know about. First , I can't believe she picked up English with a perfect Southern California accent and vocabulary that quickly. Second, the stuff about being subjected to stereotypes about Russian women. I don't think many of the people around me think Russian women are drunk and promiscuous, or have any opinion at all about them, really. Finally, if she's all she claims to be, I can't imagine her having difficulty in finding a man who isn't a jerk, or people who are just friendly. OTOH I don't know why she or the film makers would lie about it. Just baffled.
Sure, Leeza is completely wrong where she is. I also could not live in California.
She really needs a child. And she should move to Massachusetts or some other state in around the corner. I don't think she is crazy, I think she is clever and would do a lot for Mr. Right.
I think she has very high standards as she said she gets a lot of men coming up to her asking for dates. Could you imagine being around her strutting around like she does on the beach it would be like being on a movie set it would be strange and it would be like hullo I'm here do you see me but she would be thinking how does she look is she looking attractive for the camera.
Anytime a californian thinks, should be a federal crime. Thanks for your comment, and good luck preserving the beautiful geography of your state. Lord knows theres millions of you writing stupid comments because you "thought" so.
Love is interesting, only if you find real dude that can prove it.
Filipino men are very family oriented person and caring also compare to other nationality, Always compliments to all beautiful women around the world. Russians & Ukrainians but all European women also 🥰❤ I hope I can find a European women to be my girlfriend or soon to be my wife.
👀 The red haired lady did she actually just say ? "eating like a sperm whale" 🍴
The lady with the red hair and fringe, using a gun and doing other things like archery may have her views but she's just kinda boring in general
Did a little digging on the first woman (Leeza). She's a doctor/psychiatrist now, still unmarried. I wonder if she's happy finally
bulok69 she's not
bulok69 they don't see normal woman, the see bitches and married them and later call us prostitute. Sick ppl.
I will pray for her happy ending. She needs and seems to DESERVE her Prince Charming/ White Knight. I wish her a Noble and enchanting finish to the game of love.
I might be wrong but that guy, Fernando, has such creepy eyes. Its a turn off. Maybe thats why he couldn’t find an American woman.
Some Russians that I have met living in the US can be very rude. But once you get to know them they are great people. Their needs are the same as all others.
2:34 she forgot tacky
Are we just gonna ignore her spraying perfume to the scalp?? huh?? 26:25
Kupo - Yes, in Russia we put perfume at the pulse area....😊
Interesting,right?
I am Russian and was shocked by that as well :)
Yes I noticed that too
I'm laughing so hard at this! Wouldn't the high concentration of alcohol and other ingredients hurt the scalp and hair? I'm sure there is lots of crap in our normal hair products, but PERFUME?!
For the love of mother Russia's alabaster breats!
Her list of stereotypes is way off. People think of attractive Russian women as materialistic, gold diggers, here to take advantage of guys. That’s pretty much it.
I am Russian. Noone ever treated me differently from other women. )))
Probably due to the fact that you act normal and are natural, not fake 😉
Got to 2:15 and heard all I needed to know...
Absolutely beautiful video
