I am slightly confused where to write my post - we have 3 different lines about the same subject. Anyway let it be here.
"But I repeat - as a person who have tried both - I would not marry any RM, if even he was not an alcoholic and earned decent money. "Russian man" is a diagnose, its a mentality, its a style of life and having tried something different, I would not return to it for nothing in the world"
- even it would be in another life, and this Russian will be living in the US all his life and will look like Don Pedro?
Donna, I met some RM here - some of those who stayed in the US quite a long time seemed to be like AM: they care about their family, work hard and cherish their relationships with their wives. I also heard about AM who have a job in Moscow and behave as the worst of RM…
Also I know a RW whose :saint: ex RM send kind of child support for his son and calls him from Russia.

You know, guys, this discussion reminds me of some hillarious conversations I have once in a while when someone begins to question my decision not to have more children.
The smart ones will see analogy...
My final decision made in a responsible way with clear and present mind not to have any more children. There is always someone who tries to convince me that although my son was a baby from hell, another child may not be. Their arguement is because another child may not be a diifficult one, I shouldn't give up on having more children.
While it's true, another child may not be, I:
1. Am happy with 1 child
2. Don't want to double my responsibility for another human being
3. Don't want to take my chances and *possibly* get another baby from hell which in 2 years will turn into terrible two and so on
4. See more advantages of being a professional working mom of 1 rather than a soccer mom of 7
5. Simply don't want to have another child
Do I sound too unreasonable? I don't think so... However, I do reject all of my potential children at once.. Is this wrong? Or is it me knowing what I do and don't want? Or is there something I am not saying? Who am I misguiding?

We know you are happily married to a RM. Good for you!
You are probably a rare living proof that there are good Russian men.
Nonetheless, have you been married to an AM? Do you personally know the difference? If not, I dont think you can participate in this discussion from the point of experience. You contribution would be only theoretical hypothetical presumptions. Just like Andrew's, I might add.
