​@@Maximum7077 As a girl from Russia, I want to tell you education is mostly similar in different regions of Russia. So, all schools have the same program of studying. And when pupils graduate a school they are already educated enough to express themselves. I know the pupils have different program of studying in the USA depending on the school or region. Of course there are such people which can't express thoughts in a structured and consistent manner, but there are very few of them. I think there are such people everywhere and in every country. By the way the education in the university is not the most important thing that is an index of educations or knowleanges. In Russia it is mostly outdated trend. You know when your parents told you that you must go to the university otherwise you will be miserable and poor... But the education in the Russian university is extremely outdated and inefficient often. That is why many people try to go foreign universities. And many employers pay attention to the experience. So unfortinantly Russian education is useless for many people...

@Marco Zepeda anger depends on who was provocative . If courts value emotional hurt then it is tangible and you can retaliate with physical hurt and vice versa. But you are missing the main point. You are being with a partner because you trust them. If you get hit by your partner, then leave the partnership because trust is broken. I don't understand why courts have to get involved in a human relationship. If you can't even trust the person you choose and use government to create security (domestic abuse laws) for you to be with your partner, then that's not a real relationship. It's failing and inability on your part to successful judge your partners character. That's just projecting your insecurity on other person just for you to feel safe. No one needs rights for anyone. Rights are a lie to transfer power. For instance , creating domestic abuse laws will give the emotional abuser a leverage over physical abuser. There is a subconscious threat placed on you and you will feel repressed.

@@Anamewhowasnottaken Well, the biggest discrepancy in the video is how majority of them want to be strong and independent, but expect to be catered for. But I presume you are asking about translations. I just sometimes follow the subtitles out of linguistic and cultural interest to see how much gets lost in translation and this one jumped out at me, cos the translator is obviously trying to put words into the respondent’s mouth. I don’t think anybody needs to be paranoid about subtitles per se since it is much easier to misinterpret the content due to very different cultural backgrounds than due to imperfect translation.

I once dated an Argentinian man and he expected me to pay. He said it’s normal in Argentina for the woman to pay for the man although most of the time it’s 50/50. Is that true?

[@FriedMyLittleBrains666]

@@sophiewood6476 The problem in this case is how feminism affected this country. Traditional values ​​were branded as retrograde and sexist, therefore behaviors such as chivalry were losing popularity and frowned upon by the most radical sector of feminism. Some men do not want to be labeled as sexist and accept the deal of paying 50/50 despite being a bit against it. Others, on the other hand, take advantage of this to get their way and make the woman pay alone, but these are very isolated cases. I had not heard anyone make that claim. That Argentinian you had a date with is not worth it. Nor is anyone else who comes to you with that same approach. Luckily, I perceive that things are changing little by little... there is still a long way to go, but these traditional values ​​are being revived.

[@robahas]

I think people often confused personal roles in personal relationships with questions about social justice. For example, the struggle for making sure that women get paid on par with men, or that women should have the same education opportunities, is about equal access to economic and social resources. That is not the same thing as gender roles in a marriage, or a romance. From the interviews it seems that these Russian women like traditional gender roles in relationships, but are mostly positive about equality in other areas. I think this is an important distinction and it is valid to make it. Of course, the two do influence each other somewhat, but they don't have to necessarily.

[@towardcivicliteracy]

"...The struggle for making sure that women get paid on par with men, or that women should have the same education opportunities, is about equal access to economic and social resources." I don't think you can rationally dis-entangle the two, without wrecking what makes it possible for women to make the much-improved choices they've already gained through advanced economies. Economies cannot overcome scarcity by paying more. Quite the opposite, scarcity is overcome by producing more with less. One of the largest "problems" (although that's not objective) is that women are FAR more likely to choose to take time off for child bearing and rearing, often for many years. Which means they lose far more years of valuable experience in the workforce. To the extent we already (or want to) try to force firms to pay them more to make up for that, the less output/cost would simply be passed on in prices to women's families, and would fall disproportionately on the poor, since the poor rely much more heavily than the middle class and wealthy on productivity (labor), rather than passive investments. Government can involve itself to make it appear that this problem is solved (i.e., through regulation, subsidies, preferential treatment of larger companies, etc, which is itself, incredibly dangerous), but it is all appearance. Unfortunately, we're already WAY down that road, as corporatism and special (corporate and bureaucratic) interest domination has already taken over the U.S. to an alarming degree. Contrary to a LOT of wishful thinking, economic laws are not magically overcome by government and egalitarian-speak; and governments are incredibly dangerous (and violent) mechanisms for social engineering.

This is really interesting. It seems that since Russian women are a little more removed from the left wing ideologies that are taking over the western world, they actually have a little more of an objective opinion about feminist values. And what's particularly interesting to me is how they feel more free or comfortable to agree with some claims or values and disagree with others. To me that shows a greater presence of freedom of thought than what we see in the west, where left wing ideologies promote such loud activism and insist on compliance and are generally more authoritarian that people are probably a little more scared to admit any disagreements with any claims or beliefs within the political movement.

интересно, что девушки, ощущающие дискриминацию в одной области, далее в вопросах также имели стереотипные взгляды на мужчин. Например, женщина должна работать и развиваться, но платить и водить по интересным местам должен мужчина. Мне кажется, это все обоюдно тогда. Потому что я знаю девушек, которые по отношению к себе никогда дискриминацию не испытывали, но и сами никого не стереотипировали.

Гендерные стереотипы касаются в основном поведения женщины в семье. В царской России женщины получили право на собственные паспорта только в 1914 году, а в 1917 году после революции женщины получили абсолютно равные права с мужчинами во всех сферах жизни. Я не уверена, что в Европе или Америке 60-70 гг. были министры, директора предприятий, депутаты, судьи, космонавты-женщины. Так что весь этот западный феминизм, с требованием привилегий идет лесом

[@allet1]

Мне так жаль, что большинство девушек с видео просто не понимают что такое феминизм. Это не борьба за равноправие, это не ненависть к мужчинам, это борьба за права ЖЕНЩИН и я полностью поддерживаю ту девушку, которая сказала, что если знать смысл слова, то очень странно не быть феминисткой.

[@ekaterinach4913]

Я вот не понимаю. За какие равные права борются феминистки, если у нас они и так уже давно есть. Вы историю в школе проходили? Ещё в 30-х годах при СССР началось движение за освоение женщинами мужских профессий. Моя мама заканчивала инженерную специальность. И работала на заводе. Моя теща заканчивала лучший в СССР химический институт и работала химиком-технологом. А это сердце завода: именно химик-технолог решает какие именно ингредиенты и в какой пропорции нужно смешивать, чтобы получилось хорошее моющее средство или яблочный сок, или ещё какая продукция. Хочешь - работаешь по любой специальность, хочешь - выбираешь сидеть дома с детьми. Голосовать? Это право у нас есть. Учится и работать там где хочешь? Это право у нас есть. Отправить мужа в декретный отпуск вместо себя? Это право у нас есть. Домашние обязанности? Это решается индивидуально в каждой семье. Так за какие равные права вы боретесь, если они у нас и так уже давно есть?

[@Дарья-я5ь7щ]

I live in a province Russian town and work in a big factory, most of the top chief positions are taken by women. There are many married couples working here and the wives got higher positions and earn more money (relates to me and my husband also). Actually never through my life i saw that women around me had somehow less opportunities in life. I dare to say that women have more rights in Russia than men. It s actually even in the legislation, women are socially, financially and traditionally more protected here. And also we can add the fact that most of the time men are the ones who pay and it s considered that they are obliged to support the family and be the strong shoulder. So either a woman s successful or not, it s up to her and there s no pressure for her (except the case when the family is poor and a woman is pressured to work hard). But men are pressured and stressful to maintain the strong image. So i actually pity our men a bit lol

Dinner, movie, entertainment, drinks....whatever. It's a mans responsibility to take care of his girl, not because she can't take care of herself, but because it should be a mans honor to do this.

[@maozedong8370]

Nope. You CANNOT do that anymore. That worked in the past when people took relationships seriously. Now though, women are using such guys as meal tickets. You are nothing but an ATM for the night for her. To be expected to pay for everything for nothing in return is ridiculous and you should be ashamed of yourself for that. I hope you live outside of a major city where the situation isn't as bad, otherwise I pity you. There are women who literally celebrate the fact that they get guys to pay for their sh*t and they gave nothing back. These women aren't even capable of an engaging conversation, they are NOT worth your hard earned cash.

I totally agree with the part that feminism means eliminating violence against women. That shouldn’t need to be even talked about as a right, a man NEVER raises his hand to a woman. The flip side is a woman never disrespects a man, and understands that what she does has an effect on him and this needs to be important in how she treats him.

[@anna-5104]

Theory is nice and all, but have you actually lived a real life with real people? Disrespecting each other at least sometimes is the reality of all serious relationships, because disrespect is subjective and has not a fixed definition. One person feels disrespected for a minor thing, the other person feels misunderstood, the other one feels even more misunderstood and has hurt feelings now, the other doesn't know what the problem is and then it's leading to a fight in all relationships to have ever existed. I have never met a woman who has never disrespected a man. And for sure, I wouldn't want to live in this world, because disrespect does need to happen at some point, when you are a real person and have interests that matter to you more than a single man's opinion. How come that you compare "violence" with "disrespect" and say both hold the same value respectively for either sex. I don't see how that makes sense or is in any way a smart comparison.
