What Is The Best Present You Can Give A Russian Women?
What Is The Best Present You Can Give A Russian Woman?
I am often asked this question. And I always warn against giving Russian Women lavish or expensive gifts. It only spoils the girls and gives them ideas above their station.
On a simple trip, I usually take a large bunch of plastic flowers. Plastic flowers always remain fresh and springy during the rigours of travel. Also, modern plastic flowers are put together with this really neat, snap-click mechanism so you can split bouquets easily. This means you don’t have to waste the whole bunch on a woman you are not quite sure about.
Increasingly, I notice that Russian girls are always borrowing my black shoe polish to do their eyes. So now I take the little bottles of liquid black shoe polish with the sponge applicator on the top. These they find very convenient and, therefore, a welcome and unpretentious gift.

Is it a joke? What a fuck?
It’s not true at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s a fucking boolsheet!!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHA so funny!
I’ve just noticed irony and satire is lost on both Russian and North Americans. :-$
That means British people have more in common with Germans, than previously imagined.
Olga, poor baby, keep afar from this Copyduce the Pilfer. Would you like to trade your beauty for a large piece of soap, instead? You can cut it in slices and spread on bread. You can dissolve it in a cup and add some drops of vodka. strudel
this should have been just as embarassing for you to write than for me to read…
Ladies! where is your sense of humor?
Fight back with the same, if you want, but this post is clearly addressed not to Russian women.
I would say - not to Russians and not to women! )))
[...] probably think this is one of the girls who borrows my shoe-polish to do her eyes. Not. I can tell you, whatever mascara she uses is thicker than scuff-kote for kids. [...]
Dear copydude! I am a young 36 years old woman from Moscow, Russia and I completely agree with the most you say on your pages. My advice to you: you should just stop meeting poverty-stricken beautiful Russian prostitutes from proletarian families with only one objective in life - to to find some foreigner to escape from her shitty life. Otherwise results are predictable.
Darn funny.
I gave a Russian woman who is a friend of mine Sapphires for her birthday, and she didn’t ask for black shoe polish for Christmas. LOL!
my partner is russian. for presents it is the thought not the cost that is the most important. he would give the shirt off his back to make me happy, but i would never want him too. His russian family are salt of the earth people, strong , independent, caring men and, women. they don’t believe in exchanging expensive presents, but are always there when i need help or in a crisis. Be proud.
