The Slavonic Soul

Sometimes my clients ask me about the difference of mentality of Slavonic ladies and European ladies.

Yes , there is a big difference. Our women are more tender, then European woman. Our women are more close to their husbands and for our women her husband is the center of the world. Even sometimes the husband is far away to be ideal, for his wife he is the best.

Many years ago the wives of  "Decembrists" went with them to Siberia,Kazakhstan and Far East

I want to remind the history.

...Liberal group attempted to enforce reformative movements upon the government and granting freedom to serfs. The actual revolt happened in St. Petersburg’s Senate Square, which hosts the Hermitage, on December 14, 1825, thus the name “Decembrists.” The revolt was brutally suppressed.

The following trials and arrests sent scores of officers into exile in Siberia, Kazakhstan, and the Far East. Wives and fiancés of many Decembrists followed their husbands, accepting the Spartan conditions of their new life, sometimes fighting for permission to follow them. This is how the term “Decembrist wife” emerged.

A martyr woman willing to share the hard fortune of her man is not exclusive to Russian culture. What’s notable, however, is the place it takes in the hierarchy of values and how it reigns over other priorities. The degree to which the public is responsive explains the emergence of memes and cultural phenomena.
