Why do foreign “princes” prefer Russian “Cinderellas”?
According to the medieval chronicles king of France, Henry I, who governed from 1031 to 1060, wished to marry the daughter of Yaroslav The Wise, Ann, as he found out that she was adorably beautiful. Though probably it was just one of the numerous legends. The point is that historically the image of Russian woman is associated not only with beauty, but also with household, complaisance, patience, devotion to her husband, family, diligence. Family is the main priority in life of our women. Job and career are of minor importance to our ladies. The definition “career” is very seldom to hear from Slavonic women. It happens in case if their husbands are real looser and they have to keep a family. From generation to generation they inherited family traditions and attitudes to children upbringing. Our ladies are very romantic, tender, solicitous and family-oriented, ready to give love and care to their husbands.
