Sorry Neptune, I wasnt too clear on that one. I did say "Well it depends, culture is changing but ill be honest with you in the older days about 20-30 years ago they wouldnt consider someone with darker skin beautiful, that was just European culture at the time. Its actually changing quite a lot which makes me rather "happy.I mean today they might consider such a woman beautiful (i left 9 years ago so a lot has changed). But about 10-20 years ago not really. As for the descend of Asians, yea they believe to have originated from india but this isnt something discussed. I think communist regime didnt think it was important enough to teach. Personally I found this out in the U.S. a couple of years back. I dont think they consider asian women beautiful because of that, hmmm...never thought about it actually, but they also think Russian women are the best so who knows. It really depends on a person being judged. I just meant on average Anna Kournikova has what would be considered a "typical" face and thus she would be average. They like unique beauty that stands out, but still consistant with the standard. I guess, im not the best expert on this, just from my experience IP: Logged |

oh they were just scared, or maybe it was fear covering up ignorance, or ignorance covering up fear, anyway, brown skin pigmentations are beautiful, colour is beautiful, as long as its not albino or too dark or, just not the right color.
i've been told that my heritage is ?exotic?, yea, thats what she said, my history teacher said that, (well maybe to the white world its exotic, yea to the white world it is, i guess)
I hope russians  like exotic beauties, well something thats exotic (different) to them.
Oh and thanks for the precious insight BUD, i'll definitely take all into consideration.

and just to keep things realistic, it probably hasn't changed, unless the woman had my features, of course. (oops, its that virgo rising, eros in the 1st house, venus conjunct part of fortune tendency of vanity;, its funny because when i used to sit around my mom and talk about my arms, and my skin, my mom say 'your so vain', i guess she was being honest) But seriously, it probably hasn't changed, i mean, why would it change? ------------------

My ex boyfriend who was Ukranian's parents were sort of racist against black people.He has Venus in Sag so he likes women of another race. He once dated a girl who was half black and Puerto Rican and his parents were not happy at all.
He was going to bring her to his sister's wedding and they said no way in hell.
He told me this when we started dating and i was a bit scared but his parents loved me and he bought me to his parents retirement party.
I am a latin girl but I guess my skin was pale enough for them to like me.
I really liked his parents but the fact that they didn't want him dating a black woman really bothered me since I grew up in a family where people mix with everything.
In my family people have mixed with Jewish, Asian, Jamaican, u name it!

Well not just that sweet stars, but with a venus in sag, other races are attracted to you even more so. With my sun conjunct venus, venus conjunct juno conjunct part of fortune, i attract them even more so, but my parents aren't rasicst or anything like that, they've spent time overseas in (spain, germany, turkey) in the military on duty, and with my 3rd cusp libra, aphrodite in libra in 2nd, i blend in as beautiful with any race, regardless of my own race, but i do have to watch out for 'perverts'  ------------------

Neptune - honestly in the older days yea the standard of beauty was by pale skin. But its changing a lot today and many people dont think so anymore. I definately dont, i like my guys tanned at least (all my bfs have been S.E. Asian --> Bengali and I think Middle Eastern guys are the most beautiful of all men). quote:

Oh my, i know some people who would be disowned for that. Lucky for me my mommy is very open minded and looks at personality over anything else. quote:

A friend of a friend's brother married a Dominican girl, his parents still are "ashamed" about it...really sad actually in my opinion. quote:

Thats really cool...im concerned cuz S.E. Asian parents dont like anyone who isnt S.E. Asian to date their kids (for the most part).
My ex and I dated for 3 years and his parents had no clue.  My Sun is in the 9th house and my saturn and uranus are in Saggi. So im very attracted to foreigners especially of diff religions. IP: Logged |

Well i certainly do  quote:

Well definately not Mongols. Indo-Europeans but not Mongols. I like some Spanish guys yep, but the Italian guys i know are sooo stuck up and kinda all try to look the same which annoys me. Im sure there are some extraordinary gorgeous Italian guys out there, havnt met any yet. But yes there are some awesome Spanish guys. IP: Logged |

The Mongols did invade Russia. Definitely see some East Asian and Mongol features in a number russians groups. West Russia geographically would be more influenced by European invasions and mixing, while more Eastern and Southern regions probably had an influx of Mongol, Indo Persia in those areas.

Those are usually not ethnic russians but russians from central part of the country who were simply caught up in the empire. quote:

Yes but most dont consider themselves Russian. They consider themselves Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgiz, Turkman etc. They are of Turko Mongolian descend. I mean the Slavs, they are Indo-European. IP: Logged |

Yup thats true but they usually dont call themselves "Russian" if u ask them wat they are they will tell u Uzbek for example. They were pretty minority-like in Soviet Union so considered "lower". Ugh Russians consider everyone lower, they suck royally on that part IP: Logged |

So do russians have a superiority complex? A feeling that every ethnicity and race is below them in some form or standard?

No,no,no Xodian,Putin is much scarier looking...as in I wouldn't want to be caught in a dark alley with him ( And no, I don't mean that in a good way). No suprise he has a scorpio rising,although my sister has this too......but she's less scary looking but more swarthy/hairy . Straight to the point...he just ain't attractive!!!
