| The rapidly growing economic pressure and the wish to create a successful happy family have caused Russian ladies to turn to the West in search of a better life. The current Russian trend is to marry western males. The number of marriage agencies promoting international marriages doubles annually.
For most Russian women to be a housewife in Russia is a luxury. The unstable economic situation has forced females to seek jobs in order to provide for their families. Rare are cases when Russian husbands can earn enough, therefore that their wives could stay at home. Russian females consider it very hard to make a career and are lower-paid than their male counterparts. Even a successful career does not guarantee a proper standard of living.
Educated Russian females find it easier to blend with a western culture. They are sure that marriage to a U.S. Citizen will help to find a better life for themselves. The ability to combine a career with household obligations makes them perfect wives for western males.
Due to the social and economic pressures a considerably large percentage of Russian males have addicted to alcohol. Moreover, Russian men commonly spend time with friends, chase after other females, drink and do not help about the house.
The current demographic situation in Russia is veyr acute as well. Women outnumber men by about 12 % in the age group of 30 and above. Therefore, Russian females have fewer chances of meeting a suitable partner in the homeland.
Females who lack confidence, put up with the terrible conduct of their husbands, others petition for divorce. Many Russian girls think that overseas men make better life partners, as they are more liberated, family-oriented in comparison to Russian males, and will help with the household chores.
Hence, desperate Russian females leave the homeland in search of stable, economically secure life overseas. In their quest for a stable and secure life, Russian ladies are even open to marriage to mature overseas men.
As for western men, the rapidly growing rate of divorce and a decline in family values have made many foreign men turn to Russian brides for emotional comfort. |
