Unmarried men in Russia live rather a privileged life as compared to single women. A woman without a husband is seen as deficient, no matter why she is alone (worse if she has never been married), but an unmarried guy is never questioned about his single status.

Are unmarried men in their forties looked down upon in Russia?

Absolutely not!

In fact, an unmarried man in his 40’s will be constantly flirted with by all the single ladies around him.

It is the invariable complaint of ladies on Elena’s Models that they simply cannot meet any available Russian bachelors, that’s the major driver for women over 40 to seek partners online anywhere, in any country.

If Russian girls in their 20’s are quite nonchalant about trying to find a match overseas, ladies 35+ are rather desperate.

One lady told me that a Russian guy openly scolded her when she was hesitant to invite him home after their first date. His words were, “You should not be that prudish. You know there are many more women than men. You should be happy I have chosen you!”

Russian women 40+

Ladies from Russia often complain that after the age of 40 they are not even looked at as females but some genderless creatures. They feel they are not being treated equally with guys, nor at work, neither outside the workplace.

You can find out a lot of things on women’s forums where they talk openly. I also hear about it all the time on my Instagram page for Russian women (I have over 8,000 followers there, if you are wondering where from the girls come to Elenasmodels website).

So, certainly unmarried men in their 40’s or 50’s are not looked down upon in Russia. But unmarried females are.

Russian females are not being treated equally with males, nor at work, neither outside the workplace.

Are women 40+ ready to move to another country and leave their families and friends behind?

Totally! The ones who are joining serious international dating sites like Elenasmodels.com are.

However, of course, these ladies are a rare minority. The majority of single females in Russia do not believe it is possible for them to find a partner abroad.

They see it as some kind of an impossible dream, a “honey trap” to charge huge money and deliver nothing, when they hear about the idea of finding a partner in another country and moving there to live with him. Yes, that’s true! They question why would a decent man seek someone abroad when he could easily find a girlfriend or wife at home.

Because in Russia there are more single girls than guys (86 males for 100 females, according to the latest statistics), and it’s been like this since the last century, ladies cannot even imagine that in other countries it could be any different.

Russian women feel that a good, stable man who doesn’t abuse alcohol (most guys in Russia do) is a precious commodity like a gold bullion valued at $1 million. Who would give such a precious person away? Who wouldn’t want to date him? They are absolutely convinced that a guy like this would have plenty of options with local girls, so he wouldn’t need to look elsewhere.

Some single women in Russia would simply never move to another country, they are accustomed to local ways and love their homeland.

But there is a small percentage of single Russian girls who are open-minded and feel that true love has no borders. These are the ladies that register on our dating site and they are ready to move to another country, if they meet the right man.
