Parallels between Slavic men and Asian men

I was on threads and randomly got recommended a what looked like a Russian thread. I was curious what it was about and so I used the translate function and lo and behold it was Russian women talking about how unattractive Russian men are in comparison to Italian or Western European men. There was also talk about how even Turkish or Middle Eastern men were more masculine too.

I saw other Slavic women talk about how during their time in Europe, Slavic woman + European men couples far exceed Slavic men + European women couples. Seeing this I was struck by the similarities to what is being discussed among Asians and the Asian diaspora.

But there is a caveat in all of this. Slavic men are still white and can still coast by on their white look and attract women who fetishize or want these features. White worshiping Asian women will go for them regardless. Asian men however, are Asian possess Asian features and still have to contend with the forces of Eurocentric beauty. There’s nothing wrong with Asian features. What’s wrong is the racism that ensue for those who do possess Asian features.

I didn’t see Russian or Slavic women put down the white race as a whole though. There is that compared to Asian women writing off their own race.

So there are similarities but also differences. Anytime there is a large gap in the perception of women’s beauty vs men’s beauty of an ethnic group, these types of dynamics occur. Prime examples being Asian women, Slavic women, and even East African women where the women seek men outside of the community.

Take that with what you will.
