I don't know if I necessarily agree in generalizing.
As I'm dating more, I'm meeting more women from both America and Eastern Europe. I have found myself agreeing with a lot of cultural values on both sides.
I stopped generalizing Eastern European women.
The last woman I liked/asked out came from Russia, I only knew one word "kees-ka", which made her curious I think. However, I don't think that is something she wanted to talk about, she had other interests. She was cute and the reason why I asked her out because when we talked she showed me her odd taste in latin music from 1960s and she liked math (differential equations).
I don't know what she wants in life.
I do feel though that woman had a serious character about her.
