@@AnnafromUkrainelol reporting on what? She’s an idiot that gets her numbers from her own disgusting corrupt government. The only thing she stated that was correct are all the Ukrainian women in the armed forces getting slaughtered. It’s all over social media. It’s disgusting. What kind of government sends women towards bullets? Not surprising considering Ukraine is a terrorist state. & she won’t even mention the 4 million Ukrainian civilians that gladly migrated to Russia.

Agreed! You are what we desperately need - historical info and fact to help counter false PRAVDA narratives. We support you! God Bless You and Your Wonderful Countrymen & women!!! @@AnnafromUkraine
Remember Men if your ever so Lucky to date or marry a Ukrainian Women treat her as a Queen. If a Russian woman trys to hit on you she is fleeing from abuse 1 in 5 that's alot. Support Ukrainian people.
You have made an important point. The supposed traditional Russian morality that fascinates many Western conservatives and they see Putin as a crusader against woke ideology.
This kgb operative is an expert at twisting reality to his own negative purpose.
I firmly believe in that connection, and it needs to be better understood.
If it's a choice between leftism and a dictator; I choose a dictator. Just like when America was a prosperous christian nation; leftists would rather choose the atheist communist soviet union over right wing America. The sides have flipped
The West has lost much of its moral compass in recent decades, but what's missing in this decay is the role that the Bolsheviks played in this- in fact Putin's own KGB. The late Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov (videos still on YT) revealed the long plan and the complete process used by the Soviets to subvert the west, and declared that in many ways it had succeeded beyond the wildest KGB dreams. So Putin and his cronies demoralized and destabilized western institutions, then point out the rot that they created. Nevertheless, the decay and deception of Communism and the oligarchy that is Russia is even worse.
It's typical for americans to be so lost in their domestic culture wars that they blindly cheerlead an invasion of a sovereign nation.
Not sure what to write in response..except to say a polite ,civilised society is worth fighting for, Ukraine and the UK have plenty of strong women, mrs C, Anna, from Ukraine..😊😊

@@eamonnclabby7067 Very Well Said !! I Agree Totally !!!

Real men don't fear women, real men promote women to be the best they can. Real men want women to be by their side as equals. Hitting your partner is NOT a sign on love. Anywhere that dismisses or belittles women is destroying 50% of it's potential and will never achieve all it could. It is good that you live somewhere you can be free and respected Anna
Totally agree with you
@@AnnafromUkraineseconded
These real men need to speak up.
exactly! :) weak men only like weak women, bc they're constantly terrified of being emasculated by thier wives. And vice versa, I find. Sad weak women constantly feel the need to make escuses for sad weak men. I mean look at Pootin now.... a light breeze could emasculate him.
Exactly, just as real women support their men. In contrast, Russian women send their men to die in order to get a Lada. I cannot forget those girls in Moscow LAUGHING at men who were being apprehended by the military to be sent to die in Ukraine.
Thanks Anna & Sasha for another interesting episode. I think the Orc women are being saved from abuse when their men are sent off. That's why they relish the new Lada when they are gone! Stay Safe! Slava Ukraini!
That is all so sad
Brutal.
But true for some. 😊
The thing is, they dont get a Lada but a sack of potatoes or similar. Well violent husband is gone. The returned wounded soldiers do not recieve proper treatment, do not get prostheses nor payment as veterans. Thats why the Russian government dont want them to return from the front, they could tell it like it is.
Thank you Anna for explaining that. It's important for understanding. Victory for Ukraine. Greetings from California.

Your bizarre challenge to "toxic" reeks of emotional thinking and willful delusion in the face of such overwhelming and insanely unthinkable brutality, barbarity, horror, death, and abject corruption since Putler's power takeover.

@@jamesgornall5731"...Russia has a culture similar to other slavic nations around it..." Not at all. The back-alley thug from St. Petersburg, Putin, has promoted a culture of violence over the last 30 years. It is not at all normal for a society that every third man has been in prison.
@@jamesgornall5731 And just because a country has been over run and enslaved by russia, does not mean they are russian in nature
Thanks Anna. Toxic masculinity has been detrimental to many failed societies. Good to see women held in high regard, a sign of progressive thinking.
Slava Ukraini
Toxic femininity is even more detrimental. Currently the west is literally dying off because of the toxic femininity.
Can we try to understand the difference between reporting abuse and accepting abuse as normal
When you look at the UN's Global Database on violence against women, it's unsurprising that there are no data available for russia. After all, russia decriminalised certain forms of domestic abuse in 2017, after which police often refused to even investigate.
@jamesgornall5731 do you have any citation for that? And I must point out that, at least from Western evidence, domestic violence in romantic relationships is most often mutual between the partners.
Continuing to build a future in relationship . Working together . Building a future. Maintain your status . And wait for opportunitys to move forward.
A woman with her hands on her hips is exactly the same in any language! Trust me, I know this, I am a male! Stay safe and strong Anna. Slava Ukraine!
I AGREE TOTALLY 💯!!! 🤣😂🌹
Russia want their citizens, blind, deaf stupid, uneducated and pregnant too! Such awfulness... A real man doesn't have to play macho he is kind, loving, caring and doesn't have to reduce himself to the use of violence to be a real man. Thank you dear Anna for this educational video, take care! Slava Ukraine 👋🇸🇪❤️🇺🇦👍!
@AstroGremlinAmerican maybe in Russia. In Canada we value kind men and women, not boys in men suits or girls in women clothing.
U gotta have Men to make more Children...
George Orwell also said that people sleep peacefully at night because rough men are willing to do violence on their behalf.
@johnm84 there's a time for all things. Except riding a pony bare chested when you're an old man......
You have hit the nail right on the head regarding the pressure on women in ruzzia to have more children at a younger age. This toxic masculinity ties into the callous disregard for the deaths of their "soldiers" on the battlefield, and why ruzzians respond to those deaths by saying "women will make more."
Thank you for your report. Glory to Ukraine, glory to the heroes.
The weirdo faciat US republican men in Congress have been saying much of the same lately. So un-American and sick.
I suspect the so-called Russian Orthodox "church" has really been pushing the "PoP Out More Kids For The Russian Death Machine". Also pretty sure they are using quotes from the Bible in twisted form to support this demonic pressure to produce more kids to kill.
Excellent video Anna. It answers a lot of puzzling questions. I’m married to a Ukrainian/Canadian woman and appreciate (sometimes begrudgingly) the qualities you describe. The criminal toxic masculinity in Russia is disgusting to me. It’s yet another example of how Russia can take entire segments of their population and view them as subhuman slaves. And people wonder how they can so carelessly keep sacrificing so many on the battlefield…

Thanks again Anna.
I can understand wives losing barbaric husbands being unmoved, but mothers losing sons can't be easy for them.
If you choose to worship a monster, you get what you ask for.
Slava Ukraine 💙💛
Who raised all the barbaric husbands?
There is also familial abuse. Anyone in a family can be a perpetrator or a victim... even sons to their mothers... though at least in our country; we recognise that now. It's not only men or husbands who abuse women, sadly.
Raising a child is one thing, but all adults are responsible for their own actions. Sad truth. That's why distraught mothers can sometimes wonder their whole lives what they did wrong, when it's quite possible they did nothing wrong and everything right... @@kenthanna
@@AJ-Lohinska this is not that complicated. Both parents do pass generational trauma to children unwillingly - this does not exclude that the mother sincerely loves or cares for her son, she just doesn't know any better. The result is that even trying her best to not pass the trauma, the child will inherit some traits and simply learn the rest of pathological social behaviors by observing.
@@PhoenIXrcrr I appreciate what you are saying.
Not being familiar with quantitative genetics, nor that educated in the theories relating to the environmental variance for personality, cognitive abilities, and psychopathology, in the familial sense, within shared and non-shared environments; I'm not the world's leading expert. I just understand that we all have,, or develop our own individual minds, regardless of our inheritance or environment at home.
We might inherit certain things genetically, but it is *always* up to us what we do with them. I know we can inherit altered brain cells in our DNA from our parents who will have suffered trauma(s), we can inherit the very genes that made our parents resilient or non-resilient. But I could never put any percentage of any blame onto a parent whose child, in their own adulthood, decided to (e.g.) murder another... could you?
The true mark of a "man" is the ability to respect women who show their capabilities. Personally, I enjoy the company of a woman who doesn't set limitations on what she wants to accomplish. Anna, I hold in the highest respect. You have shown that a woman can be just as informative as any man. Please continue to educate the world!.
@@jamesgornall5731really? Source?
@@jamesgornall5731 You don't know what you are talking about!
@@jamesgornall5731 Her name is ANNA
@@jamesgornall5731in a good deal of the studies you mentioned, Russia either has no data or only partial data when it comes to violence against women. So it’s impossible to compare the two countries in any truthful way based on the sources you mentioned. However, OSCE does confirm the decriminalization of domestic abuse in Russia in 2017, which Anna cited. Feel free to look at one up. If something is decriminalized, the result of that is that there are fewer arrests, less data collected, etc. So even if you do see results on violence against women in Russia since 2017, that the numbers are going to be artificially low. As for before that? More than likely the culture that resulted in such a law being passed resulted in low levels of prosecution or reporting even before that. So I stand by what Anna said, who IS a woman in Ukraine and who knows her experience very well, and can see the experiences of women around her. As for the phrase she reported (“If he beats you, that means he loves you”), this is a phrase that I heard previously from Russian vloggers reporting on the situation in their country. It is a cultural issue that Russia deals with, where domestic abuse has largely become normalized.
Regarding the “gender-equality index”, I’ll give you that Russia and Ukraine are within a couple of points of each other. But the UN statistic states that this index is a composite of “reproductive health, empowerment and the labor market”. So this does not take into account violence against women, which for the reasons I’ve explained is either unreported or underreported.
Actually the true mark of being a man; is well being a man. We're not some knock off side kick characters to embolden women in their quest to feel like they're as good as men at all the same tasks(they're not). We are still conquerors, protectors, providers. And yes, respecting women is one aspect of manhood; respecting women is not giving in to the demands and whims of women constantly.
I remember a Ukrainian family invited me to their house for dinner, I didn't show up I forgot all about it, I went back the next day to apologize at the doorstep was a Ukrainian girl with her hands on her hips eyebrows raised, I felt so bad I wanted to drive away. 😂
Oh, that is a real cultural experience ☺️☺️☺️

The "Russian" (it's not specifically Russian, it's just traditional) mentality will naturally spread because strength dominates weakness. Western societies are already collapsing from the plague of feminist (among other factors). Societies that don't embrace this way of living will collapse into chaos and savagery. The ones who will survive will uphold these values as its the only natural way for humans to exist.

Anna, as a man I love what you are saying. I love women and wish them no harm. It has been evident to me for several years that toxic masculinity is used against us men. It is so used in many parts of the world and especially in Russia. Toxic masculinity is thrown like candy to men, to condtion us into behaving like beasts, fighting each other over power and who sleeps with who. This was never the world I wished for. I want something intelligent, something compassionate. Something to love that brings hope. I know someone will answer my comment with questions like "what about violent and betraying women?" My answer is that Toxic behavior is not ok for women either, but at this time I see no woman world leader who is causing this amount of harm. Slava women!

Anna it seems the importance of women in society is something Russia never had any grasp of. Women's rights and strong women are an integral part of any strong country, women have so much more to offer than just being mom's and wives. There are plenty of examples of great women being very important parts of history and some of our best politicians are women like Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocosio Cortez just to name a few. Anna you are doing so much to help spread awareness about Putin's aggression and propaganda you are a strong woman doing your part and many of us appreciate it SLAVA UKRAINE !
I wouldn't advertise Pelosi or Occasional Cortex if I were to support UA. Way to align the american right whose support you will need for continued aid against UA.
Women in Russia today get no respect, they aren't even respected enough to be educated and have the freedom to have an honest opinion of their own they just like most of the men are force fedd a steady diet of lies and propaganda. If they were aloud to have an educated opinion of their own I'm sure they would not want their husbands,father's,sons ect fed into a meat grinder just to feed Putin's ego. SLAVA UKRAINE !
I’ve been married to my wife for 50 years and I’ve never hit her. Wife beating is barbaric. I’ll bet your husband never hit you. Stay safe Anna. 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦
Thankyou violence against women is not exclusively a Russian phenomenon. In Australia it is getting more attention and we are pressuring the government the legal and social welfare systems and the education department to start making serious changes. Women across the globe should support each other.
Oh really? That's a problem, in Australia is it? All these men are beating up on women? And in every single case, it's not mutual domestic violence I suppose... that never happens right?
The social security system . In Australia is very supportive to the break up. I think that stats was 2 in 5 break up. That went to 3.in 5. Not sure why. Younger generation viewed their parents as successful. But owning your own house now is out of the window for most.
Love this series.
Actually, the demographic crisis is even worse. In addition to the over 300K men lost on the battlefield, 700K to 1M left the country. These were also men of military age, and the ones who would start families. This is one reason that it is unlikely that Russia would be better placed to fight a war five or twenty years in the future. They are rapidly running out of men to fight future wars. Just think, sons born now, and I mean right now, would only be ready to fight in 20 years. There is also the mismatch between males and females in the childbearing cohort. This was true even before the war, and it gets worse.
So glad you like the series
However, many did not left the country for the reason of migrating, but because of the economic sanctions and reconstruction outside of Russia with non-sanctioned ressources. In a afterwar situation, those will most likely return. However, demographics in Russia are bad, but not among the Muslims. That being said, a Russia which attacks Ukraine in that way is not in any form a protector of Christian or European conservatists.
Probably one reason why toddlers are already taught to march these days, and children learn that the best they can do is die in battle for mother russia.
Of course putin's vision for the future of russia requires a lot of bodies for the meat grinder. russian women are promised a reward for getting more than 10 children. And it would not surprise me if abortion will soon be criminalised in russia.

I hate that there is a need, but thankful that you keep an eye and voice for the victims of war crimes. The more people know the harder it is to look away.
I recently heard that Russia is considering an abortion ban. It's related to the declining birth rate and the need for new soldiers in the future. It reminds me of the Nazis and the young women who were encouraged to get pregnant and bear children for the fatherland.
Yes, all in russia remind Germany in 1939
That was the lebensborn project. It was a program to engineer the "master race" I don't think putin is that shoosey about who he sends to the front line.
In terroruzzian controlled Crimea private clinics have "voluntarily" stopped providing abortions. This is in response to pressure from russian authorities.
I think the birth rate in Russia is a high percentage of girls.
Advice issued via Kremlin recently was women to start pregnancy at 17yrs old, and aim for 5 children, to meet target numbers for “future soldiers”. That’s state baby farming.
It seems russia always had a misogyny problem. Well it's a lot worse than we thought. Just the abuse of the military is very troubling. Then the mothers and spouses behave very weird toward their soldiers. So it's difficult to relate with the russian dilemma. Just strange.
Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦
It's not misogyny in my view, only general hatred for humanity. Women just aren't the exception.
From a woman’s perspective who has experience with Russian men, many are indeed misogynists, on top of general hatred of the other, though there are exceptions, and those tend to live outside of Russia. I much prefer Ukrainian guys and Czech guys, and yes, I do know from personal experience.

I am married to a Serbian woman, and during the wedding ceremony my late mother in law translated the words of the orthodox priest to me whispering: "he said you should always hear what your woman says and obey." At that time my Serbian still had been very poor and I had sometimes difficulties to understand it, as it is quite different from russian. My wife and I, hearing my mother in law, had to smile and, as the priest also had heard it, he smiled too. :D In my eyes the kind of russian "masculinity" is not an ideal to strive for. This is also the reason I gave my office I had held for more then 40 years to my daughter (the second youngest of six daughters) and I am proud to see it thriving well. She is better in business than I ever had been. Point. :D Slava Ukrajini!

Totally agree. A very informative insight. It’s disgusting and sad the Orcs are like this when we know how different it all could be for them to have prosperity and peace.
"Toxic masculinity" is a toxic expression from the culture wars, that is best avoided. Russia's "traditional values" are simply a rejection of any thing Western and modern, including concepts such as the right to equal treatment, basic legal rights, any concept of justice, and anything to do with democracy. Russia is a medieval country with electricity.

Going back to viking age, the women were also the ones in charge at home here in Scandinavia.
The "traditional family values" that putler wish for, peaked in the early to mid 1900s.
It's not uncommon for a society with underpopulation to promote the traditional family, that includes hating on homosexuals... because they don't breed.
That's a piece of history that has been repeating itself for millennia.
I can understand the people that prefer the olden ways, but I don't understand when society wants to enforce it... should really be a personal choice, and domestic violence has no place in a modern society, that should be obvious.
Top comment.
@@jamesgornall5731 you have a point about the imbalance in numbers. But it could be phrased better.
I wasn't making a point regarding monogamy or polygamy as such.
When the imbalance gets too big, especially if a society favour one gender over another, it gets problematic too.
I don't like the fact that most countries enforce monogamy either... the reasoning is that it is to protect the women.
In a society that just wants offspring, allowing it openly makes sense.
But taking many western countries/cultures into consideration... people get divorced and remarry without too much trouble... many never even get married.
I think that the most important is that you shouldn't be able to hide it from eachother... so some kind of registered partnership makes sense.
thank you for addressing the toxic masculinity that drives this (and most) wars.
i would like to learn more about the 3 brothers and their sister.
thank you for all you do, anna. : )
Thank U Anna !
What a Beautiful Talk from U !
I am Proud of you too ,To be a Ukranian Woman !🇺🇦🌻
God bless You 🙏❤️🙏
Slavia Ukraini !🇦🇺☘️
Respects to the ukranian women.
Slava Ukraini.
Yes please talk about Russian mail order brides and the links with organized crime groups and sex trafficking.
Pani, Even thought I started laughing before you said the punch line I was LOL. I didn't know this was a Ukrainian joke I first heard 50 years ago but then all my family were American - Ukrainian. Slava Ukraine, heroyam slava. God bless the freedom/peace loving people of Ukraine and those who support Ukraine. Diakuyu Pani.
Couldn’t agree more Anna. The further east you go, the less rights for people (especially women) you will find. Iranian women are fighting back, Russian women need to take a leaf out of their book. Try telling an English woman she needs to know her place! My wife wouldn’t take that!
That’s because Russia, Iran and all the dictatorship regimes live in the Stone Age and need to catch up with modern democracies
"catch up". If catch up means men have no lead or control over their families you can keep that. This is a good avertisment for supporting Russia
@@IconoclastX You see that right there, that comment just shows that the concept of dictatorship is deeply rooted in your mentality. What exactly do you believe gives you an inherent right to "control" your family? Is leading by example too difficult? Do the wishes and opinions of other people offend you so easily you can't even tolerate hearing them?
@@IconoclastX control their families!!! Are you for real? Spoken like a true bully there, well done 👏🏼 you keep beating your kids and partner, let me know how much respect and love that gets you.
Russian troll
Iranian women have been SO brave! Just amazing! Some Russian women have too- an artist just got 7 years in jail for putting up signs telling the truth about the war- but it'd be so great if more women AND men in Russia protested... And as an Aussie woman, I won't be told to "know my place" either. That's not how my Dad brought up his daughters, or how he treated his wife. So I didn't stick around when my ex got violent.
@@rorychivers8769 Excellent reply!
Russian women also support Putin
Yes, and many adore him
@@AnnafromUkrainethere is no accounting for taste, or the total absence of it...😅😅😅
Hi Anna
Thank you for today’s vlog.
It’s difficult to feel anything but total despair about russian society.
Keep you hope and you optimism because the dark clouds will clear and Ukraine will move into the sunlight.
Thank you Anna for your efforts to help this world see clearly
Chest pounding aggression and bravado is what weak men use as a substitute for strength of character (a much harder goal to achieve).
Probably, a lot of the abuse could be related to alcohol abuse by men etc 😢
That's always a big factor in violence.
Another pertinent and well crafted video. You are a great force for your country.
I heard the idea of masculinity described this way: the ability to be a monster And the maturity to control that ability. I think “toxic masculinity“ is the break down or perverse application of that control.
Слава Україні
Героям Слава 💙💛
The woman posture with her hands on her hips is common also in the UK. You made me smile with this comment about the man's cap and the woman's posture. Good video Anna and the very best to you, family and friends. If I see a picture of Putin with no shirt, firstly I'm violently sick and then go into hysterical laughter. Ukraine will come through the Victor Anna, I'm so very sorry your people have paid a heavy price.
Very interesting I didn't know these things about Russian culture and women. Thank you for helping us to understand Russia. Glad we are supporting Ukraine
Oh my gosh!! I’m late! Nevertheless, of course I am still here, supporting Ukraine. ❤🇺🇦 Hugs to Anna and everybody. 🤗 I am listening now!
Better late than never. hugs to you too.

I never thought the Mongol Empire was relevant to modern day society, until you made these direct connections to Muscovy & the old Mongolian Khanates. Throughout 2022-23, it's been hard to *stop* thinking about it.
In a way, the Mongol empire has become "my Roman Empire," the thing I think about every day.
Yes, and we have to look more into it
@@AnnafromUkraine I would love that. I suspect other viewers might, too.
Yes, Mongols ruled today's western part of Russia, except nothern part. So Moscow was free from Mongol Horde. At that time, Moscow was a small village that land owners successfully collected taxes and began rising as an empire. Gradually ousted Mongols. This is how Russians have developed an imperialistic and rough mentality. They think they have to rule everyone.
Yes! I love history, & I firmly believe you need to know it to understand the present, & looking into Ukrainian & Russian history HAS been really enlightening. The Mongol Empire was important, but ofc so was the Russian Empire with its autocratic tsars, the hideous Stalin, communism... And for Ukraine, the Kyivan Rus', the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth & the Cossack Hetmanates. I'd love to know more about the Mongol aspect though!
There is no relation between Muscovy and any mongolians savages. Firstly because the mongolian invasion of Europe is a complete myth that's not mentioned in a single authentic chronicle. Muscovy was the real bastion of Rus culture and civilization. At that time, Ukrainians were literally slaves of Poles and Kiev was nothing but a backwater town.
Very important video, drawing a line that raises the expectation of women and men. It isn't okay to mistreat women. They are most sacred to society. Anna represents that standard very well, as a standard of dignity, respect, intelligence and beauty. Expect respect!
Hello Anna! The concept of looking up Russian women was not top of my agenda!
😹😹😹 sorry
Can you elaborate on your comment?
@@psychemusik Taken out of concept. I was joking to Anna.
This was very informative Anna and I'm wishing this hits the U.S. main stream media so many people can see this and give the Russian women more power. I remember the singing group from russia which name I can not place here because youtub will think it naughty. They were jailed for fighting for women's rights and the kgb/fsb still harasses them. Stand up Russian men and stop the ignorance against your mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, and cousins. We are a team respect that
Thank you Anna for taking the time to put these mind set in perspective.
Thank you Anna for sharing your thoughts… I agree with you that this war has exposed the real truth of Ruzzian women … unfortunately traumatic experience as children witnessing domestic violence in the family will have a profound effect in their lives….
Good job. I'm saving all of your Russian Crimes series.
Anna: A Russian fellow I once worked with talked almost proudly about "the black Russian soul", following it with a statement that a non-Russian could never understand it. Could you please explain that concept? I think I have an idea, but maybe I'm wrong.
Putin is only 5'4". When Pritgozhin was on his way to Moscow, Putin ran, his tail between his legs, shaking like a terrified rabbit.
It's not physical height that matters- Zelenskyy's not tall either- it's being brave & a decent, compassionate human being, & putin's an abysmal failure in both categories. He could be 7 foot tall & he'd still be a pathetic wimp, & a despicable war criminal.
Thank you so much for this episode, Anna and Sasha! It was very interesting. We have a some russian women here in the UK who married English men, but we have changed our laws with the changing of time. To the extent that we now recognise many different forms of domestic abuse/domestic violence. Even covering financial control, coercive control, and sexual abuse. We have come a long way since the era decades ago where men could not be charged with matrimonial rape, now they can. And gender is another thing we have taken into account because men too can be victims of domestic abuse/violence, and the law here recognises that too. That is what having a democratic nation means... and we continue to improve on that all the time.
It's uncanny you raised that subject of abuse, I had not watched this video up until now, and I'd left you a comment in your today's vlog comments in reply to you, about the nature of abuse; in a different yet sometimes similar context. One might understand why russian women might not mind if their husbands, or even sons and fathers, get sent to fight in the war, but what if they do manage to come back home to russia? Are the men likely to thank them for being so supportive in them going to potentially die in Ukraine? 🤔 Especially if they are not breaking any laws for beating or abusing their women there in russia! Maybe that is why we are starting to see a few women speaking out against the war? It must be a bit of a gamble to think they may or may not return home with their bodily arms, legs, eyes, etc., intact!
I have seen the videos promoting women to have more babies at a younger age... so therein lies a real dilemma. If they are not in work, their employment taxes don't get paid to government; and if they are in work, they are unable to increase the population of russia.
In what they call the "rotting west" we have overcome that in the main, but they hate our ways, so that's not possible for them to do as we do in our freedom-loving nations.
Looks like russia's war is leaving them between a hard place and a rock!
Señorita Anna, felicitaciones con tu logro en seguidores… no creo en el “machismo” o “feminismo”, … hombre o mujer … los dos tienen su roll y responsabilidad como seres humanos… gracias por un interesante e informativo blog… cuídese, salud mental y física ante todo…

@@AnnafromUkraine mi abuelo le gustaba pescar, cuando llegaba tarde tiraba su sombrero por la puerta, antes de entrar, si se lo devolvían, daba un par de vueltas a la cuadra y repetía el “ritual”… si no regresaba el sombrero entraba, sin temor 🤣🤣
@@gatonegro5193 Los clientes hacieron esso en un bar done yo viví en Copenhague. Se lo devolvian el sombrero ahbia problemas aí dentro. Se no, tudo calma y puedia entrar. El bar ya no existe. Se llamaba "Jernstangen" ("la Barra de Hierro"), un bar muy pequeño, no más que 12-15 metros2. Pero antigo, abrio en 1873, el primér bar en esta parte de la cuidad. (Desculpe mi Español, solo aprendi hablar, nunca escriber)
Thats fringing crazy. When i get home i like my gal to be happy to see me. Not cringe at my site or cowering at my every word. I like my gal to speak her mind and that way we can be on the same page for the most part. Because we are different so we are not going to think the same way but by communicating we can have a productive out come
@@jamesgornall5731 it's how the states deal with issues is the question, sadly war brings out the beasts in a lot of men. Or army/police in general
@@jamesgornall5731if you make that accusation of Ukraine, wouldn’t the same be true for Russia? 🤔
@@jamesgornall5731 war does terrible things to all involved. I’m not denying that partner abuse probably is going up somewhat in Ukraine, but your comment was awfully one sided. And you seem to take a pro-Russian slant on just about everything. Look, I’m not one to personally hate Russians (I’ve known plenty of decent Russians in my lifetime), but if you truly want what’s best for the Russian people, you would support them going back home and leaving Ukraine alone. This war is completely and totally unnecessary, and when it’s all over we’ll all see just how unnecessary it all was. And one side invaded the other, who is acting in self defense. Unless you’re the type of person that would allow somebody to enter your house, kill some of your family members and take control of your house and everything in it, I think you should be supporting Ukraine in their defense. And you should support Russia ending this war and getting out as soon as possible.

Thank you. You are filling a gap in knowledge of the issues confronting women in Putin’s Russia. Keep up your good work.
Thank you for watching
Fascinating, insight and research😮 into many Russian people.Thank you Anna
Excellent narration Anna, this explains a lot About Russia?
I think so
