All countries and regions are know by certain traits outside their locale. Some of the things may be true but others are myths. There are some such myths about women from Eastern Europe.

Myths about Eastern European women

Indeed, there are certain myths. Some of them are true and others are not. Let’s discuss 5 top myths.

1. Fair complexion

Many people think that all girls in Eastern Europe are blonde with blue eyes, fair skin, Caucasian, long hair in a plait. In reality, the Russian Federation (aka Russia) has 85 autonomous regions. 22 of them are republics. All of them belong to various nationalities within Russia. There are also other countries that form the region and they are also ethnically diverse.

So, Eastern European girls aren’t really blonde and Caucasian by default. I am Russian mixed with Chuvash (a small nation living on the river Volga), and I have brown hair and eyes.

 2. Long hair

It’s not really a myth! Girls from Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine do love beautiful hair and maintain it. Shorter hairstyles are in fashion from time to time but the majority of ladies, especially the ones who are not married, do wear their hair long.

3. Always formally dressed

Eastern European ladies enjoy dressing up and tend to wear more makeup and higher heels in casual settings than westerners are accustomed to. Although the more casual style with torn jeans and sneakers is in fashion and young girls love wearing something more comfortable, for a change.

4. Slim and tall

You must be thinking Maria Sharapova and Anna Kournikova! Not all Russian females are tall although the majority of them are slim, just like the majority of Chinese are slender. Russians in general are shorter as a nation than Americans, for example.

If we look at girls from Russia and Ukraine who met their partners on Elenasmodels.com, they look quite diverse.

5. They think differently

Indeed, there are differences in how females from Eastern Europe think. The major differences are based on their values. Ladies in countries of the East of Europe still tend to put the highest emphasis on family. They appreciate traditional roles of men and women. Beauty is like a second religion to them.
