Women In Numbers
Have you ever seen pop-up ads on your desktop for Russian brides? Well that might actually be legitimate and I’ll tell you why. According to a 2014 census, there were around 10.5 million more women than men in Russia. What’s kind of alarming, is that according to officials, the birth rate of males and females is equal. So what exactly happens to those males as they get older?
Body Building
It’s no secret that during the USSR’s heyday, they boasted some of the world’s most skilled and precise (and overworked) athletes. Until this day though, women take part in gymnastics, body building and weight-lifting resulting in some of the most impressive athletes of all time. Russian women maintain that these activities are not solely masculine and even lobby that they can be feminine too.
