A new self-help pamphlet, promising to make finding a man a lot easier, has been created for young women coming to the city to work or study.
The guide will give specific recommendations on how to find a man in the capital, among them tips on where to go, what to say, and how to tell if the prospect is actually worth knowing.
One of the problems the guide wants to help address is that Muscovite men are increasingly opting for foreign girlfriends: they see foreign girls as less pushy-to-settle-down and less materialistic.
The authors plan to consult experts on slang to make the guide more accessible. They say it is crucial so that the book might help make many young women’s dreams come true.

“Foreign girls are less materialist and easier to settle down.”! Where are the facts to back this up? And if it is the case that foreign girls are easier to settle down than Russian women, why are these foreign women are in Russia rather than "settling down men in their own homelands"? I do not think Russian women are anymore difficult than any other women. It is true that Russian women have embraced western culture of mass consumerism after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the new Russian society that emerged has not yet learned how resist the disease of consumerism. Rather than making fun of Russian girls, RT should offer ideas about active lifestyle, leadership development and how to gain self confidence to young Russian women. Russian women were not always so weak and materialistic. It is their sudden encounter with crude capitalism that is eating away the inner moral strength of Russian womanhood. Please include in this self-help book reference to such classic films as Moscow Doesn’t Believe in Tears. P/S, similar self help books are also available in the West and only stupid girls use these so-called self-help books to find the right man. Also could "the term Russian women are not easy to settle down" be a code for Russian girls often do not go all the way in the first night of encounter with a men and that Russian women protect their moral virtue and feminine purity, especially those from the country? I do not think these girls need to follow the examples of Western women. They need to follow the example of their mothers and grandmothers. http://english.ruvr.ru/radio_broadcast/2248959/5286772/ http://english.ruvr.ru/radio_broadcast/2248959/5158696/ http://english.ruvr.ru/radio_broadcast/2248880/10102484/
The title of this article caught my eye and I just had to laugh. Moscow to write down rules for man-hunting. I have known many wonderful Russian women over the past 4 years and have traveled to Russia on three seperate occassions to meet and spend time with them. From my experience with Russian women I have discovered that they are extremely independent, hard working and really do not want to settle down with a man domestic or foreign. Russian women like to date, make love, have children and then cherish their independence to raise their children on their own without the hassle of having a man around. Part of the reason for this is because Russian apartments are so small and after children arrive their really isn't room for three and so someone has to go. Naturally it is the husband who then has to fend for himself again. I have observed this all over Russia from Saint Petersburg to Moscow to Yoshkar-Ola to Kirov and Volgodonsk. Russian women are just very independent and self sufficient. As a test this summer I offered a single Russian mother with whom I had been introduced to an opportunity to get married. I would move to her home town, build her a home, provide her a car, accept her son as my own, and provide other financial assets to stablize the family financially. The offer was politely refused. She was fully capable of taking care of herself and did not want any help or companionship. She had her girlfriends to talk too, her son to take care of and work that kept her busy 14 hours a day. This is very normal from what I have observed all over Russia. Are Russian women really looking for men to settle down? I don't think so. They cherish their independence too much. However for Russian women to meet the man of their dreams I have this advice. Do the things you like to do. You will meet a man who enjoys these activities at the same time.
